It’s not perfect, but I think maybe it’s a V for Vendetta reference? He calls himself the “Ghost of Christmas Past,” but I don’t know. It’s the only British anything I know is definitely maybe sort of an inspiration for Mr. Robot.

If you’re a decently skilled computer user, I’d suggest considering the DD-WRT route (mentioned in the main piece).

I think DD-WRT is the way to go. I switched to DD-WRT a while back, and I will never buy a router that isn’t compatible with it again. Although it’s a workaround in this case, the perks of DD-WRT would probably make it seem like a free upgrade rather than a compromise.

Not sure if you know this, but Father John Misty is a dude.
