Default Wireless Carplay and Hotspot

I've installed the latest update and have the Wireless Carplay working with my iphone. What I have noticed is that it requires the phone to connect to the wifi hotspot in the Defender for the Apple Carplay to work wireless, which is fine.

The issue that I am seeing is that, because the phone is connected to the hotspot in the car, that makes my phones internet connection be the hotspot and not use my 5g connection in my phone. The problem I am seeing is that the hotspot data connection in the defender is not as reliable or fast as my phones 5g and thats causing delays in messages or emails, or songs to download, etc.

I saw on other manufacturers they have settings for using the wifi only for carplay and not general internet, is there such a setting or method with the Defender?

Thanks!
