I have a Pixel9a and I am using its hotspot as the internet backup for my Deco x60. Howerver the test connection check keeps failing and I have no idea why. Here is what I have done so far:

• Using 2.4 ghz band in Pixel 9a for hotspot.
• Using WPA2-personal encryption for hotspot.
• Using fixed WAN port in deco.
• Using Manual DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as the dns server for internet connection.

Here are the logs from the test and I think these are some interesting observation 

• The Deco successfully scanned and identified myPixel hotspot on the 2.4 GHz band with an exceptionally strong signal (-28 rssi): Sun Apr 5 14:25:57 2026 daemon.info internet-backup: best: xxxxx , bssid: xx:xx:xx:xx :8d:36, freq: 2432, rssi: -28

• A DNS query failure during the setup:Sun Apr 5 14:26:43 2026 daemon.err conn-indicator: [send_query] Failed to send DNS query: Network unreachable

•  Successful IP Address Assignment (DHCP): Sun Apr 5 14:26:44 2026 daemon.notice netifd: backup_wan (2098): udhcpc: Sending select for 10.170.191.42...Sun Apr 5 14:26:45 2026 daemon.notice netifd: backup_wan (2098): Lease of 10.170.191.42 obtained, lease time 35

• Brief Success and Immediate State Reversion: Sun Apr 5 14:26:51 2026 daemon.info internet-backup: test succes

• Sun Apr 5 14:26:58 2026 daemon.notice internet-backup: state transit from server_up to ewan

• Sun Apr 5 14:27:03 2026 user.notice internet-backup: backup_wan_teardow

Any idea on whats going on which can help me debug this will be greatly appreciated.
