hotspot using nighthawk ac2300 R7000P

I'm currently having a situation with internet outage going on 2 weeks. That means no internet!
So i want to see about using my laptop and router to use my cell phone internet as a hotspot. I have one device connected to the router which requires internet access. This is captioncall phone.
I also have an epson wireless printer connected to the router.
I understand i can do this by reconfiguring the router as a repeater. Looking to use it as backup net incase of outages.
How do i do this?

You might see if the router has wireless bridge mode, if it does, try connecting the router to the cell phones wifi signal using wireless bridge mode on the router.

It has bridge mode. I would have to link the cell to it?
