I have a question about my iPhone 6

I have a new 5Ghz router to which I've connected my iPhone 6 and iPad 2 Mini.

On my iPad Mini, I go Settings / Wifi and I can see my iPhone as an available hotspot. If I click on my iPhone, my iPad connects to my iPhone and my iPhone switches to mobile data.

I don't have this problem if my iPhone and iPad are connected to a 2.4Ghz router.

Is this normal?

Thanks for your help
