Personal Hotspot on iPhone 6 not working

Anonymous
Not applicable

I used to use my hotspot all the time but since my device plan was paid off and I switched to a sim only deal it hasn't seemed to work. It's still a pay monthly deal and I have 10GB allowance but I just can't get my MacBook to connect properly anymore. This is what I see in Network Preferences:

So even though the two devices appear to be connected, I'm not actually getting data to my MacBook. Any ideas?
