Never heard about someone who had a router on his boat ;-). with two computers where only one has internet-connection it works well with the so called "ad hoc" network. the one who is connected with the internet just has to share the internet-ressource.

if you really consider to use a router on your boat - be sure to really use a good encryption. otherwise you will be a wifi-hotspot and a lot of other people will use your internet-connection. and - afaik - cellular internet connections can get really expensive when you get over your monthly limit or if you are using another network than your home.

greetings
