I purchased a T-Mobile 5g home Internet gateway to put the sim in. I connected that gateway to a glinet router the Flint 2 to be exact. Change the ttl to 66 so the sim will use the device data and not the 10gb of hotspot data. I use this for backup Internet. I have cox hsi as my main Internet. Both are connected to the glinet router in fail over mode. You can PM me if you need any help.

A lot motels/hotels only allow only one device to connect per room. Using this router, you connect this to their wifi network and then you can connect your laptop, phone, tablet, streaming devices and anything else you may have to this router. The hotel network only sees one device.

Not bad. I got this for $78 last year. Great travel router. I use it to watch football while I'm out of the country and set up an open vpn connection to my home router. Works flawlessly and allows me to use a chrome cast via LAN for streaming on hotel TVs. Would recommend this router for travel and light usage

Can someone explain the purpose of this when traveling? If you are in a hotel and using the hotel wifi, how is this any better? The thing is using this... if you connect to a wifi that is dangerous, this doesn't protect it right? I'm confused about people talking about connecting multiple devices to this while on vacation in a hotel. How is it different from multiple devices connected to it via wifi?

Now what if you are using your own 4g or 5g wifi hotspot from your phone to tether on your laptop? Would this be any help? How is it any different than just using your phone to tether the data? Would it be different if you have 3 different devices then? I'm confused what is the purpose of this? Does it make the hotel wifi more faster and stable?

The thing is my 4g or 5g hot spot from my iphone with my laptop is stable already. What about the benefit be of it using it with my iphone and the laptop compared to me using data on iphone or tether as hotspot to laptop?

Got this for 54 w/ tax from aliexpress during sale season
Are you sure it's the "beryl" you bought? "opal" model is cheaper and very similar to this.

Okay that makes sense then. But does it provide any security for your wireless devices though at the hotel?

If you connect to a dangerous wifi, does it protect any information you enter? Example you connect to a wifi that shows starbucks but it actually isn't starbucks. Let say you could connect to that wifi without a password etc.

Waiting for the refurbs to go back om sale. Or be great to repurpose old home routers that are sitting around for something like this but not sure if there is a tutorial for that kind of setup.

it alone won't protect you, and connecting anything to sketchy wifi is dangerous.

How it can protect you is if you use it in conjunction with a VPN

Great setup. Few things though:
1. I used the internet gateway for a month and it pulled native data without TTL upgrade or adding an additional router in front of the gateway
2. Even if we use a router, that just helps with Native data vs hotspot data with TTL adjustment. Without the IMEI update, we still risk being flagged by Tmobile for using business sim in a internet gateway, unless you have tricks to update the gateway to mask IMEI.

That said, do you think investing in Flint 2 @ 114 is worth it?

What is advantage over using the starlink router in RV? The VPN capability?

I don't know what your talking about but I have 2 T-Mobile business tablet sims that still work perfect by just changing the ttl with routers like these.
Do you mean you share internet via USB from the phone to this router, and then change the TTL for packets sent from the router? So your T-Mobile cell provider can't tell that the router traffic should count as hotspot and not on-device cell traffic?

I use this to create a LAN for my sound engineering/dj equipment (behringer xr18). Works great. Bought for $80 few months ago. Just wish it had 1 more LAN port

You can set the WAN port to be used as LAN, if you haven't already done that.

You can also get yourself a small 4-5 port switch that powers via usb-c. Unifi makes one.

Did I say that? Of course, you need VPN , that's one of the reasons this router is used.
You should know that just a VPN won't protect your location if the device can scan your local WiFi environment.
You need both, a VPN and disable WiFi
No. Unless the VPN server discloses the logging, VPN encrypts the data transfer without exposing your IP location. Also if you talk about the scanning mobile wifi to track yours, You can turn on the random or cloned MAC in Windows. If they can track down the location, the internet world should be the safe place without crimes.
