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. )

No way it can broadcast to all ship depends on your location.
If you live in the lowest floor state cabin, the signal won't go far.
If you are in a high floor balcony room, it could broadcast further.

I have used the titan for years but the performance is terrible. My Pixel 8 does the same thing (wifi sharing/wisp) and it was noticeably improved over the titan.
Hated to part with the titan (it has served me on many many cruises).

OpenVPN speeds are nice like 150mbps. I've Xfinity Gig and connect to my Home wifi -> gl.inet -> Open VPN -> end client.
I've used with NordVPN(including dedicated IP which requires some work) and PIA VPN(which doesn't support dedicated IP yet on gl.inet). The only thing I miss is the Wireguard support from VPN providers with dedicated IP(limited use case for many). Might have to try Torguard VPN which I believe supports Wireguard config files for 3rd party devices.
I've been running RaspAP on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W with a USB wifi adapter for faster speeds. That's a lot more complicated to set up then these but in a drastically smaller footprint. For me the size is the most important aspect of a travel router.
