What is your machine ? Pavilion or Envy, what is it model/product ? Your machine may only see 2.4GHz and your Pixel 2XL may ONLY broadcast 5.0GHz therefore your machine can't see it. Please check and make sure your Pixel 2XL to broadcast both bands,

My phones (yes both of them Android and iOS) broadcast both bands. I don't know the Pixel but my Samsung and Apple broadcast both. Your husband's iPhone should do the same.
