Your phone connects to the router as well as any other devices you want to connect to the router. The cruise only sees the router mac address. The router take care of the fact that your phone has the same MAC address. Cruise is none the wiser

If the hotel already offers free wifi, why does someone like me need this unit?
It was very easy but I work in IT and understand the different options more than the common person.
Or does this device spoof rotate MAC making throttling difficult?
So even if I returned it for warranty or RMA, I would still pay for shipping if I got it directly from GLinet, whereas Amazon I would get a free return and get another one.
there definitely reasons why people buy from amazon. and there definitely has some issues with the QC of this product. but even with that said. the negative review from amazon (1 and 2 stars) is only about 10% (we can assume that one is much likely to leave a negative review than a positive one)

there are two primary uses cases, and both relate to travel
1. you pay per connection. even if hotel has free wifi the premium ones aren't often free and require you to pay. with this, you can share that premium connection to multiple devices. this is pretty standard practice in airplane/cruise/hotels.
2. VPN gateway. if you want to funnel all your content over VPN to bypass some local internet issues (like netflex for example), you need your tv stick or chromecast to go over VPN, and you cannot just load wireguard or openvpn on those tv boxes. this is what you do.

1. Rarely have I seen a hotel lock a premium connection by device, it's almost always done by room number login meaning all devices that use the premium login are on the premium connection.
2. You can get around the chromecast/airplay limitations with your cellphones hotspot with VPN or use a device that allows your preferred vpn install or side load. This is a tech geek device and seems completely unnecessary if you have those skills 🤷 ♂️
Correct me if I'm wrong

2. This then requires that specific device to be at the hotel/around the entire time, with hotspot running (killing battery/heat) and coverage is worse
