Ignore the Tethering thing. Is is possible, but needlessly complex for what you want to accomplish. Instead, create a 'mobile hotspot' on your smartphone. It's normally in the Settings part for connections (Wi-Fi, Bluetooths, Mobile (cellular), etc.. If you specify which brand/model and Android version you have, we probably can give more specific instructions. When setting up the mobile hotspot, you give it a name (like for your broadband) and password. Next, you can connect your Windows 11 'desktop' to that mobile hotspot, just like you would connect your laptop to a public hotspot, for example at Maccas. The result is that your Windows 11 'desktop' talks to your smartphone via Wi-Fi and your smartphone talks to the Internet using mobile data from its monthly (?) data bundle. FYI. I use that setup when we're traveling in Oz. (You're in Oz, aren't you?)
