Your only option is AP mode. In host mode, you would need to have the internet directly connected to the TC. If you do not need the Internet on the TC then Host mode could be used but is limited if you need timing access for external sync or a planetarium feature using connectivity.

My TC which is a Raspberry Pi is on AP mode all the time including when I go out. When I go to a remote location. I use my mobile as the host and the TC connects still using AP mode.

One of the confusing things is the terms AP and Host. I understand what you mean although never used those terms. They are usually reserve for the router but I suppose it can be used for a PC.
