I have the beryl and I really love it, the only thing that's kinda hard for me to understand on those is the lack of internal battery, that renders it pretty clunky if you intend to use on an airport, a nice 2/3-hour long battery would make this device perfect, other than that it's pretty great.

I have a RAVpower File Hub travel router which has a built-in 6700mAh battery so it can run wirelessly, and it's not very bulky. I haven't seen that on any of these Wi-Fi 6 AX protocol travel routers, but I'm sure it's not far down the road. It does make it more convenient though. I believe if I remember correctly, mine is AC750 and was one of the few at the time I got it several years ago that had dual band 2.4 and 5gHz. It's not fast by any means, but it gets the job done. Other than Wi-Fi 6, the only thing I feel it lacks that this TP-Link one and the Beryl have is VPN functionality.

Serious question: why would I buy this for travel instead of just using my phone's hotspot everywhere I go? I can connect multiple devices to my phone with no problem, and I have a lot of data. It seems like these travel routers are less useful in 2025, unless I'm missing something.

I bought this before I went on a cruise. I was able to tether the paid cruise wifi which was about $150 and then use that to connect all my other devices under that same cost.

It ran off a USB c and I put it in my backpack when moving around the ship.

It paid for itself almost immediately and now I use it for when I go to hotels so I don't need to re-connect everything and auth through the hotels wifi

How much better is this going to be in real world use in a hotel room vs the less expensive AX1500 version? The AX1500 specs say it supports 1.5 Gbps (1201 Mbps on 5 GHz and 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz). That seems like plenty of speed but I've never used either of these.

Benchmarks with both halfway down: https://dongknows.com/tp-link-tl-...er-review/

But most hotels will have slow internet anyway.

I've used the beryl for a few years now and have traveled with it quite a bit. I've used it in countless hotel rooms wired and wireless wan to use mine and kids devices. Used it on the plane several times to connect to my free T-Mobile Internet and then share with multiple devices including laptop to get work done. I've used it in AirBnBs even in rural Italy last year and connected an IPTV enabled stick so the kids still had movies in English to watch during down time. Have not had success with regional based services as they still somehow know I'm not at home... Although I've only vpn'd with nord and never set up my own VPN at home on my Synology. I'd love to do that but not sure where to find a how to to follow that works (have tried in the past with open VPN config file and for some reason it would only work for a day and then never again unless I bought a ddns... Current router doesn't come with a free one I think). There's definitely a learning curve to it and isn't really for those who've never messed around with networking at home before. There's a lot of settings to toggle and practice with and could be frustrating for many.

For Tmo inflight WiFi did you turn on the Beryl and relay the captive portal to your T-Mobile phone that was connected to the Beryl? I've tried cloning MAC address in the past but wasn't sure.Re:Synology OpenVPN server - you could register for a free dyndns or similar then port forward and host port TCP 443 on your Synology OpenVPN server. Some public WiFi's will block VPNs but OpenVPN allows you to use any specified port so using HTTPS port 443 will bypass that specific restriction.

This or Beryl AX?
Beryl. I'd prefer one with more frequent firmware updates, forum support, and openWRT build option. I have the BerylAX myself, prefer the external antennas, has a configurable on/off switch on the side, firmwares have been stable.

Yes... I turn on the beryl then connect my phone to the beryl via wifi (and turn off mobile data), connect beryl to plane wifi, and have beryl clone my phones Mac. Then you will see a notification on the phone that additional sign in is needed (ie, captive portal) and then complete that (sign into TMO... Having Mobile data off still allows you to receive texts to verify your phone to sign in) then you're golden. You may consider using beryl's login mode to auto disable any VPN previously active until the captive portal requirements are met then you can turn back you VPN on

You're not getting the regional content that way because all of the big VPNs, like Nord, are easily blocked based on their IP addresses.

You can try DuckDNS or one of the other free DDNS services to run your home VPN server and that should fix it. Or, have a router at home that comes with its own free one, like another GL.iNet or an Asus.

My tplink supprts OpenVPN server and I have the subscription with no-ip so I don't have to constantly update the ip address when it changes. Change the OpenVPN config file used by the client to use hostname. Use with iPads, iPhones, windows pc's and Mac's No issues.
