I would say terms like access point and bridge but I don't know if those are correct.

Or do I first connect to my phone to my home ASUS router then turn on wmwifirouter?
WMWifiRouter has nothing to do with it... That's only if you want to share your 3g internet with other computers, phones, etc.

Just go into Settings > Connections > Wifi - Turn it on, and you should be able to see available networks. Easy peasy, you're making it WAY too complicated!
