I have this and used it on a 2 month trip through china. I had it auto connect to my wireguard VPN at home and sometimes to mullvad. It worked great for my uses and had excellent throughput. I ran it off a 5 port charger I had and it didn't have an issue and could tell it to connect to the hotel/train wifi's and sometimes my hotspot. I had it set to encrypt my connection before allowing internet traffic through so I'd not have any problems with the stupid great firewall.

It doesn't have 5G onboard, you get it through a tethered device. This seems very similar to the Beryl AX, down to the WireGuard and OpenVPN speeds, though the Beryl AX is cheaper, has a 2.5G WAN port.

Love how you assume everything about a person for a single comment as you have literally no idea why I was using a VPN or anything so whatever floats your boat son.. It literally matters not that they know or don't know it was wireguard. I used it for a purpose and it served that purpose. Yes I also had an esim from 3HK but guess what? That esim isn't going to let me push hundreds of gigs to google photos and everything else I was doing. Would you like to actually comment about the deal or just bash people?

5g and ( EDIT —- not built in 5G ) wifi 6 in the same device and portable?

GLi would kill it if it had those features

I got the TP-Link AX1500 Travel Router for $66. I'm curious which one uses less power and which is more compact. $99 for a travel router seems a tad expensive.

This is definitely on the power user end of travel routers.

If you want compact, repurpose an Android phone or get a Raspberry Pi.

I'm a bit lost, can anyone help explain what these are mostly used for? For example, what would be the advantage of this over connecting directly to a (for example) hotel wifi and just using the VPN connection on your laptop/phone?

So I have a similar unit setup with my same Wi-Fi SSID as at home, so when I connect this to any hotel Wi-Fi, all my devices just automatically connect without going through the captive portal on each. Also allows me to cast to my Roku since client isolation is generally enabled on public Wi-Fi networks. Just makes it easier if you travel a lot.

Identical hardware to GL.Inet Beryl AX, in a different footprint. Performance will probably be similar. Haven't seen any teardowns to see the orientation of the two internal antennas, so not sure if they're parallel or orthogonal to each other.

I believe I read that this one had trouble connecting as a client to a wifi network with spaces in the key. But since it's a first release, I'm sure it'll be fixed in no time.

This would be great on a cruise where you pay for wifi for one device. Use this to share the wifi with multiple devices.

Bought this and had to return it. I don't if mines was faulty, but it kept disconnecting from the internet even though it was hardwired into the router. This happened in all 4 Airbnbs I used it at.
