Personal hotspot doesn't connect

Hey everyone,

just recently the personal hotspot from my iphone hasn't been connecting to my MacBook Pro - the iphone shows the connection, the when I hit the wireless dropdown it has a tick against my iPhone, however the wifi icon is greyed our and has an exclamation mark.

Is this a known issue?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.13

Did one or both? And if it didn't work, why did you mark your own response as solved?

Try a Force Restart and if that doesn't work, then reset network settings on your phone.
