Recommend option for "full house VPN"? (libranet.de)

I have an old Linksys router which I have read is quite "hackable" for setting up a VPN with custom Linux firmware (tomato, etc.). Everything I have looked up on it, however, seems to be about creating a VPN so that you can access the internet from anywhere in the world, but utilizing your home IP address.

I want to plug a wi-fi router into my internet gateway, and then have any device in the house that connects to that device be using a vpn to show location as somewhere else. (I.e. keep HOME, Home_Guest and add a new CANADA SSID to choose from in the house. My main use case is so that I can switch APs using the infrared red remote for my SmartTv and watch live streaming of our local baseball team on my brothers' MLB.TV account (free with T-Mobile Cellular service) where it blocks local IP addresses in hopes you'll pay for the silly cable package in order to get the RSN.

Am I barking up the wrong tree? Should I be looking for a different solution, or am I just searching the wrong terms? Any particular VPN provider you'd recommend for something like this?

I'd start with getting a OpenWRT-compatible router and flash the OpenWRT firmware onto it. You do NOT need to replace the modem. Looks like you already did that but with Tomato. Honestly, nevermind then, this comment is redundant.

It took me about 2 hours to do the whole setup with a tplink Archer wifi router hardware, I got it for about $40 used on Ebay.
