Currently in modem mode there is no wireless from SHUB1. Also SHUB1 is only single band either 2.4 or 5, and with internal antennas has pretty lousy range, so there's not be much opportunity to share it from outside your property. But I hope it can be enabled so you get the benefit of sharing when out.

Given the lousy firmware on SHUB1 in routing mode, I find it difficult to believe its going to be touched - wouldn't it be easier to give everyone a Fonera type device?
