Situation: I have one ethernet port in a room near the TV and would like 
to make the  smart TV not a TV so to speak, and instead drive it from a 
Pi 5 as a HDMI screen and use the Pi for any or all smart capabilities.

But I also need wifi access to the network in that room as well, and the 
pi 5 comes with wifi,

But I have never seen it configured as a *bridge* to the network and 
DHCP server via the Ethernet.

Does anyone have a link to a magic spell book for this configuration?

TIA
