So with these devices do I still need a router and an internet connection, or will a smartphone connect wirelessly directly?

as far as I know, the is no direct WiFi interface to an NCE command station.
A PC or Raspberry Pi are needed to run JMRI's Panel Pro which is what the WiFi throttle connects to
an NCE USB interface connects the PC/Raspberry Pi to the NCE cabbus (like any other controller)
and of course, you can use the WiFi throttle running on a smart phone

Is anyone controlling a NCE command station over WiFi and what other components are you using?
