Nearly every SoHo "router" can be put in Bridge Mode, and routers are
nearly always cheaper.

Graziano,

Wayne explained to me at Hamvention that the K4 is running Linux.

That gets my stamp of approval.

Hello,

this is not good for K4. These products are thought to be manage by
operative systems and drivers (like Windows or Mac or Linux), this is
not the case of the K4 that have a custom "OS" and can't manage that
kind of devices.
Maybe you can use more complicated and expensive devices thought to be
used with RJ-45 ports, where this device use a DHCP and give an ip
address to the RJ-45 port creating a private network between the RJ-45
and the device, afterwards the device can access the WIFI network with
his wifi adapter and work like a bridge between the two network. In this
way, maybe, you can connect the K4 to the wifi in a more "natural" way.

Like this one for example:
https://www.amazon.com/Vonets-VAR11N-300-Multi-Functional-Wireless-Portable/dp/B01199OGK0/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1_sspa?keywords=vonets+VAR11+N-300&qid=1558431899&s=gateway&sr=8-1-fkmrnull-spons&psc=1

Unless you are running audio over the link or using HDCP (surely not)
what's the difference other than  connectors for the K4?  None?

Often non-AV products use DVI or DisplayPort because of  cost /  licensing
vs HDMI.  This is why you  see DVI and DP rather than HDMIi on a lot of
computer monitors.

I am guessing the video on the K4 comes from an SBC and the HDMI "tax" has
already  been paid.
