Would there be any benefit to buying another one and setting it up at a friend's house down the street in case the one at my house goes down?
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?
This second video just looks at what's included and what the options are: https://youtu.be/7_vk6cpPtxA?si=
It comes with a 2-year warranty… I went for the 4-year extended Asurion warranty for $16. I only do this for electronics, esp. portable ones. I'll try and keep this dry, in a baggie/ ziplock. I would buy a $20 waterproof case, but I don't want the bulk.

Can anyone recommend a _really good_ USB-C to ethernet (male) for my Mac for hotels? — *very lightweight, but bombproof* is ideal.
edit: Do you guys ever tried running custom firmware on these units?
Point WiFi to gli router or you can connect through Ethernet

You can also set up a tailscale network that uses your home as an end point.

This isn't exactly what you asked for but you could make it work. I use one to tether from an iPhone to the router.<br />

For a 1gbps adapter, I recommend this one - https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Ethe...B08CK9X9
For a 2.5gbps adapter, I recommend this one - https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Ethe...B097N5WJ

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