Broadband is down, so we're trying to Hotspot. I have an iPhone SE 2020, my wife the old SE. I can see my iPhone on my Computer but not hers. She can see hers on her Laptop but not mine. We are in the same room. What's going on?

Hi,
Macs cannot establish cellular connections, because they don't have the cellular network hardware/SIM slots built-in like iPhones and iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular) models.
You can create share your Mac's Internet connection from Ethernet > Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi to Ethernet however in System Preferences > Sharing.
The industry as a whole never moved to cellular in laptops, probably because it was a phone communication protocol originally, cost was very prohibitive, and cellular data speeds were extremely slow by comparison
