fwiw, Surfshark still supports insecure L2TP protocol, so in theory, any off the shelf cable router (without modem) should work.
Here are L2TP instructions for ExpressVPN and TPlink router for example:
https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/manual-config-for-tp-link-router-with-l2tp/
Just plug the vpn router into existing ISP facing wifi router.
If you want to use more secure protocols like OpenVPN, you will need a more expensive/powerful router.
eg. a used Linksys EA6350 v3 with quad core ARM processor can manage 25 mbps openvpn speeds with OpenWRT. Asus RT-AC86u can do 70+ mbps openvpn speeds with stock AsusWRT firmware.
