BTW, I see posts all the time of people that claim model X is better based on specs, but actually never tried it. Wish they would put disclaimers and not be so certain of their claims. (Not talking about your post). Most important for a travel router to me is useability.

I used it on a recent cruise with it plugged into an Anker phone battery and it worked as a hotspot all over the ship for my family. Worked perfectly. Also used it in VPN mode to connect back to my home network and while slow, worked OK. (It was slow because the ship internet speed was slow. )

* Only need to log in with the router, and can save the router information on your devices so they'll always auto-connect
* Provide a more secure network for your devices as you only have the router interfacing with a 'fairly public' network
* Ease in using VPNs or other networks like that, automatically when connecting through a router like this, increasing your security

Beryl is very compact, so more travel friendly. Also Beryl can be run with USB C which is a big plus for many on the road.
Beryl is also good at hiding location for remote work both in US and International and suggest you pay for dedicated IP if that is your use case. Probably Mango can do that well.

Their Velica mesh system looked interesting to me at a dirt-cheap $29.90 for two nodes, but it seems to get crummy reviews.
So I'm not sure there's anything worth buying here. Just thought it worth pointing out that they have more cheap refurbished stuff than what's on Amazon.
I'm a happy long-time Slate owner, but their other products seem to be hit or miss.
