Cyberq Wifi....how to ad-hoc Android devices?

I picked up my Cyberq Wifi and had to run it from my Laptop (no biggie), but I'd love to run it from my Android phone or tablet via Ad-hoc.  I do not have a router as all of my high speed internet is streamed from my phone to my PS4, Laptops, tablet, etc.  I know, that's crazy, but it's faster than the "high speed" available here and I have unlimited data which is great....during surgery recovery, I popped 300 gigs in one week, ha.
I did a search, but the search utility doesn't seem to have, or I can't find the advanced search options for only searching thread titles and such.
1) XLBGE                  1) PK's Pro 100 pound capacity commercial grade electric smoker
2) Chief smokers        1) Brinkmann...first smoker...gave to a buddy after years of great service.
1) Char Broil Gas grill  1) Square Char Broil coal grill   1) Round XL Weber round coal grill
1) Rotisserie for the Weber grill (AWESOME).....I don't have a problem, I can stop anytime I want...I can.

    I am not certain, but I think most cell phones are not able switch to adhoc mode. That has been my experience with my CyberQ Wifi anyway. I have mine connected to my wireless router with the devices port forwarded to my router for remote access. I found this from the bbqguru site.

    Cellular (Infrastructure) Connection This is a way of creating a Wifi network with a router that offers a cellular Internet connection. The simplest and least expensive example of this is the Personal Hotspot feature built into smart phones and cellular tablets. You can link the CyberQ to the personal hotspot in basically the same way as to a wifi router, and then use the smartphone’s browser to communicate with the CyberQ. This is much more convenient than an ad hoc connection and you can link other wifi devices to the Personal Hotspot as well. Unfortunately, cellular carriers make you pay a monthly fee to use the hotspot feature. This seems unfair but it is a way to create a full-featured Internet network with practically no equipment. There are also separate cellular routers. These usually have their own price plan just like a standalone cellphone. An exception is the Virgin Mobile Mingle which operates on the Sprint network and has daily and monthly no-contract plans.
