So i am in Australia and the NBN was a bad idea and they are cutting of adsl2+ so i decided to get a Samsung s21 ultra and got a stupid good 5G mobile internet package best decision i ever made and its amazing but there are a few issues,
i use WiFi 6 and 5ghz band and most devices in my house have no issues connecting directly to my phones wireless Hotspot
although i just got given a much newer (and bigger) TV but it has an older WiFi tech so it cannot connect to my phone unless i switch to 2.4ghz band which ruins my download speed max on my PC... not acceptable.

so i tried to use 3 different decent WiFi modems to revive my phone Hotspot and push it out to other devices (which would solve issues regarding 2.4ghz band) but none of then function correctly if at all.

i also cannot use my Chromecast due to the fact my mobile is accessing the mobile data directly but the Chomecast is accessing the same mobile data but via WiFi Hotspot so therefore does not see the Samsung as a device on the same WiFi network(same exact issue with all built in features on the smart TV like YouTube link cast)

so my questions are
1. Are there any options for upgrading the new TV's connectivity? (https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/ffalcon-55uf1-55-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-led-smart-tv)
2. Does a product on the market currently exist that will Receive a 5ghz WiFi 6 connection Wirelessly then transmit that via Ethernet to the TV
3. Does anyone have a recommendation on a router to receive and distribute the phone Hotspot that will seamlessly and automatically connect as soon as its in range of the Hotspot signal?
4. Is there a way to make Chromecast work over Hotspot? (the phone is not on the network as it is the network so i cant cast to TV)
