  Have you found the place in Settings on your phone where it says
'Mobile Hotspot' or something similar? If so, configuration should be
trivial (see my (quoted) comments below).

  If not, Android 9 is quite old, but I have used a mobile hotspot on an
Android 4 smartphone (from Telstra! :-)), so your phone should have it.

  Android Settings are mostly brand/model and Android version dependent,
so there is little point telling you how it's on my phone. At least one
reader has an Android 9 phone, so perhaps he could post instruction for
his phone (but very likely a different brand).

  Well, the *Wi-Fi* is great and the coffee is quite good. Didn't say
anything about the 'food', did I!? :-)
