Interesting project.

In a similar but opposite vein, I am going on a vacation and I wanted to share the stupidly expensive internet in my room at night with the family so I am likely bringing a raspberry pi to have as a travel router attached to my Mac. In this case, I can use the RaspAP project: https://raspap.com/

This is slightly different in that I do want a NAT.

It's also slightly different because this project is for the Pi Pico.

Yeah, given the through put on the Pico is just 4Mbps in this setup, it will not work as a travel router for the family.

I like this little thing: https://openwrt.org/toh/gl.inet/gl-usb150

You can use it as a repeater, so the whole family can just use the same network/password we use at home. And it is so small, you can run it from a power bank for hours.

Unfortunately, they are not sold anymore.
