Redid Diagram
Mar 22, 2024 at 21:24 comment added eyoung100 @WorkPhoneID002 Then buying a second adapter for the Pi would be the easiest. When I found the reference link though the App you use does have a web interface. I don't know if that only apples locally, i.e., when off the internet. As for the Android limitation, remember that you can also connect the Pi to the internet. I'll redo my diagram. Notice that the arrows across the top only carry traffic between the Fishing Sensor and the Pi, While the bottom arrows Flow from the Pi to the Phone. This is what we were attempting before we discovered the limitation of the embedded Pi Wireless

Mar 22, 2024 at 19:46 comment added eyoung100 What are the first 3 numbers for the IP Addresses of the devices? If A and B can talk to each other then the first 3 are equal. If A and C can talk to each other then those first three are also equal, therefore the adapter you add to the pi must also have an address with the same first 3 numbers.
Mar 22, 2024 at 19:31 comment added eyoung100 I don't have that fancy picture maker you used, but my diagram above inverts your picture by pointing both A and B to C, and assuming C has a data plan, all devices can get to the internet. If we assume that you'd like to keep your picture as is, you can buy a second wireless adapter for the pi and manually set the address of that adapter to an address that both the pi and the phone can "see".
