PowerPoint Add-in & Tethering Wifi to Mobiles/Cellphones

New to Slido, but just subscribed and on the first paid tier. 

I’ve installed the PowerPoint Add-In, but have immediately discovered a major issue that is likely to render it useless for 90% of my needs. 

The add-in does not recognise being online when I’m tethering the internet through my mobile/cellphone.

The only way to get it to work is by connecting to a different wifi. 

Interested to know if anyone else has had this issue, and if they’ve managed to find a workaround.

PS - I should add, it’s not a bandwidth problem - signal’s full 5G when testing, and I’ve been downloading and uploading files, and streaming TV. No problems with anything else.
