Samsung Galaxy Core does not see my wifi hotspot

Hoping someone can help..... I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Core today. At home I have a laptop (Windows7) that I have setup as a wireless hotspot that I can connect other devices to share the Internet. The Samsung Galaxy Core can see the available wireless networks, but not the wireless hotspot from my laptop. I have a second computer connected to the wireless hotspot, the Samsung just does not see my wireless hotspot. Any ideas?
 
Hello, antonya! Welcome to AF! :)

Unfortunately, I do not see where we actually have a forum for your device.

You might want to try posting in this area though, Other Phones (Android & Non-Android) - Android Forums

In the meantime, I was curious as to your issue and found this with a search.

Why won't my laptop connect Samsung Galaxy S4 portable WiFi/Personal Hotspot? - Yahoo! Answers

It may or may not be helpful to you. I did think it was interesting though.

What seemed to work for this fellow was disabling his firewall or antivirus. His phone COULD see the network though...

Good luck with that. Maybe someone else will chime in. Let us know what you find out.
