Photos and iCloud sync over Personal Hotspot

I’ve owned a M2 MacBook Air since April.

My only connection is connecting to iPhone’s personal hotspot.

When I first bought the MacBook I was able to sync my iCloud Photos over this connection without any problem.

However, at some point it has stopped syncing, and I’m wondering if the 13.4 update is to blame. It simply stays on “syncing with iCloud”, without any error message.

I’ve tried everything - signing out and in to iCloud, full reinstall of MacOS without restoring from any backup, installing the 13.5 public beta, etc.

I was wondering if anyone else is running 13.4 or 13.5 and is able to sync their iCloud Photos over personal hotspot?
 
Update: 13.4 has indeed disabled syncing over personal hotspot, it seems.

A recent iPadOS update has also disabled software updates over personal hotspot connection.
