My 3DS can't find the hotspot that I activated on my laptop. When I go to search for an access point, all Wi-Fi networks are displayed, but the hotspot is not there. The hotspot works great on my phone.
Why is that and what can I do about it?
The Nintendo 3DS can only use the WLAN standard b and g (= Wi-Fi 2 and Wi-Fi 3)
Unfortunately, it can't use the WLAN standard n or ac (= Wi-Fi 4 and Wi-Fi 5).
Here it is:

PS:
All WLAN standards are explained in detail here:
