[SEPH]: Somewhat overthought, imo.
I don't see this working in modem mode!
[SEPH]: Correct. Public WiFi is turned off when you are in modem mode. That's fairly obvious since the router functions of the SH2 are disabled.
A Fonera type device connected to a LAN would be double-nat with firewall rules to block local network access and it would difficult to isolate traffic accounting.
