Best Van Wifi Possible Solution
These travel routers are great. I got one for this very reason even though I do not have a van yet. I got the GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 (Slate AX). They get updated regularly and support for using VPNs and adblocking. There is a newer model than this that supports Wi-Fi 7 but it only has two ethernet ports

No updates for GL.iNet Slate AX
Gl iNet drop support for routers all the time and prematurely at that. They say updates are coming, but truth is it’s on the back burner, and the Slate 7 is out so basically it’s the Slate 7 and Beryl AX that are top of the tree and get the updates. The Slate AX is basically obsolete.

Taking WiFi WAN and going to ethernet for the LAN
What you're describing is the WiFi-as-WAN feature, sometimes called 'Wireless ISP mode' or 'Wireless WAN' in router firmware. Solid options: Plug-and-play, low hassle: GL.iNet Slate AX (GL-AXT1800), around 120 USD. Designed exactly for this use case. WiFi-as-WAN is a first-class feature in the GUI.

Suggestion for Tailscale capable travel router
Hello! You've come to the right place. I don't know of any other router better for VPNs and Tailscale than GL.iNet. The one caveat, which you will hear a lot if you read online enough, is that there is no official "kill switch" for Tailscale on these routers. This just means if you happen to have a

Flint 2/3, what is the max usb tethering speed I could expect? Over 500mbit?
I don’t own a Flint router, but my Slate AX has a USB 3 port that should support up to 5Gbps, and my iPhone 15 Pro Max (USB 3.2, 10Gbps) can barely seem to break 100 Mbps when tethered via USB. Generally it’s around 70 Mbps. Using the same USB 3 cable to tether my iPhone to my MacBook yields speeds

Posting this on my flight from my secondary device that did not pay for the Wi-Fi
I have this, a Beryl AX, Slate AX, and a few other devices that I am under NDA about. The Ubiquiti router doesn't have the features of the GL.iNet devices, can be powered by power banks, and are not much bigger - the size of a deck of cards. Further, they have the ability to setup VPNs, AdGuard, and

Anything better than Mevo Start?
You should periodically check Amazon refurbished, or use the new price alert/auto buy tool with their bot. And that Sounds great! Thanks for offering. I was actually just talking to a fellow Redditor in the r/WiFi bc I run a GL.iNet BE3600 Slate 7 as my main hub seeing how it runs dual-band 2.4Ghz,
