</span>The RPi is a poor choice, because it only has a single USB port that's<br>
not much of a performer in its own right. (All user visible ports plus<br>
the ethernet port are connected via an internal hub)<br>

(I tried to use a RPi as a hotspot for a camper, and the USB performance<br>
was so bad the wifi cards kept locking up under even light loads..)<br>
