should be easy to do and might serve you well if you want to reach
several routers with one antenna.

yes, something like that. (and don't forget to have several meters of
space or some metal in between these).

i don't know about your climate, but here (up to 30 degrees in the
summer) there is normally no active cooling necessary for wrts, if you
have them installed in the shadow (and certainly not if you have proper
natural ventilation like in your birdhouses). this may look different
for other devices like e.g. foneras.
