The Router config is in the file /etc/nftables.conf.
In my experience over 90% don't (including the one I've been staying in for the last 18 months), hence the request. (I'll keep using Moode at home if it doesn't happen, it's nice, but I'm only there perhaps 3 weeks a year in total.)
It could be a great device for these situations.
I just want to make sure I understand the usage scenario.
You want moOde to connect to the Hotel Wifi for Internet access and also run in AP mode so you can connect your phone, laptop, etc to moOde's AP mode 2.4G WiFi network?
Yes, exactly. However my assumption is that using the same radio is likely impractical, so either using a USB device as a second radio or on Pi 4xx devices internet on 2.4 and intranet on 5GHz would be more viable.
The modifications to support this scenario would be challenging and likely would introduce bugs to an otherwise stable AP mode feature so I'm going to pass on this one.
You best bet would be to attach a local display or try something like a travel router.
