Issues connecting to FortiClient VPN when using phone as Wifi hotspot

I am unable to connect to the FortiClient VPN on my W11 laptop using my phone's wifi hotspot. I'm using a Pixel 6 (but have had the same issue on a Samsung A33). My IT colleagues are telling me that it's possibly due to EE being on a FortiClient block list (they checked my phone's IP address). I can connect to FortiClient VPN just fine on O2 mobile, McDonald's wifi and any number of hotel's, cafe's wifi etc. With EE, forget it. Anybody else experienced this issue?

Solved! I've disabled IPV6 in the WiFi network adapter on the laptop. Forticlient doesn't like IPV6 apparently.
