What is your use case for such a device?
If you're talking about traveling abroad and cutting down on roaming costs, if your phone supports e-sim I would just get such a sim and use the hotspot function of the phone to connect further devices to the internet.
I don't see what the point would be of having a router taking a WiFi signal and then broadcast another (besides not having to connect each device individually).
