Hi Lynne, I haven't had this problem, but this solution may work. Have you tried adding a new network, e.g AirPort2? I was thinking if your original WiFi uses static IP Address settings, you could sep a new one, which you could select specifically for your Personal Hotspot, therefore hopefully avoiding complications.
Another thing: if you do use the one setting e.g Airport for both the Personal Hotspot and Original WiFi, you will have to keep changing the popup box back to Static IP, every time you wish to use your main WiFi. I have all mine set to DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), so that's why I do not experience this issue. I hope this is of some help. Regards. Lewis.
