Yeah.  A Raspberry Pi'll do that.  Mine worked great.  It was several years ago (RPi3 era), so I don't remember just how I configured it.  But IIRC, there's something in the communication with the WiFi box where the RPi could ask for a specific IP.  Then the RPi created a 10.n.n.n/28 and fed it to a snappy Ethernet switch.  There may have been some iptables futzing involved too, but back then, the RPi's OS was much more Debian than my RPi5 is...
