Awesome Product

Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2024

I bought this several months ago, and I am just writing this review now after really giving it a test run. It works exactly, if not better, than advertised. I began researching solutions to get around captive WiFis that often prevented me from using several devices, including the Echo Dot. It's made traveling so much easier, and I able to connect everything. After several successful uses at hotels and vacation rentals, I most recently took it to Europe where, again, it worked flawless!y. The best part is that there was no reason to reestablish internet connections on my devices since, no matter where I was, they immediately connected to this router, which they had previously connected to. I made the mistake of printing off the PDF manual; you don't need it. Set up is that simple, and I am no tech expert. Great product, great price, and it makes staying connected with my devices so much easier, no matter where I am. Highly recommended!!

No Pry WiFi!

Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2024

Got this for low-maintenance shareable VPN when traveling. Setup and configuration is a breeze through a very well-developed web control panel with more capabilities than most people need. I wasn't expecting it when I bought it, but it supports Wireguard, so I was streaming HD video from my home server on the other side of the planet.

I've had it work off a hotel's wired LAN connection for the two weeks I was there. Works well off wifi, even had it connected to a Google Mesh network at a home rental for a weekender. It can stay in my locked bag at a cafe, powered by a portable battery (it needs 3A). It passes captive portals through to your device for authentication.

The control panel options are deep. There's the standard stuff you expect, like seeing what devices are connected and being able to manage them. There's a firewall and port forwarding and DMZ. It's an OpenVPN client and can become an OpenVPN server. Same with Wireguard. Can set up VPN routing (e.g., allow certain connections to not use VPN). It runs OpenWRT so you can install its plugins. Attach USB storage and it can serve files (SMB). You can SSH into it (assuming you can reach port 22 from outside). Dynamic DNS so it can be reached by domain name URL. Like I said, way more than what I got it for but glad it's there.

It's got just enough ethernet ports for 2 wired devices, and WiFi depends on the type of usage, but handled multiple streaming devices for me. So could work for solo traveler up to a small family. I love its compact form factor.

Great product

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024

When traveling this is a good router to bring along. There is no app so that's one missing star. The login to settings is easy and well thought out. You can save many locations on here unlike the cudy router. USB works in your car . Downside didn't come with options to buy international plugs for power but you can just plug to any USBC connection. Don't need any more than this since it's a travel router. 5g is a waste with most hotels speeds capping out at 50mbs or so.

Perfect for my Behringer X-Air 16 Digital Mixer

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2024

The WiFi that's built into my Behringer X-Air 16 Digital Mixer is great or testing and for small groups, but in larger venues, it has a tendency to drop the signal to my iPad. I bought this GL.iNet GL-SFT1200 (Opal) Secure Travel WiFi Router and now my signal is strong and secure using the 5ghz band!
Fantastic router! It's inexpensive, easy to set up and has great performance! A Must Have for this use!

Works perfectly in hotel rooms

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2024

A great find. Router works perfectly and as advertised. I travel with my furry friend and am always concerned with leaving him in the room by himself when I can’t take him with me to places that do not allow pets. I use the Eufy camera as my eyes, the product does not allow for setup and login to a hotel WiFi. I got this gem and was successfully able to connect and add the Eufy cam without any issues. It is travel size small and lightweight. Does not get warm and is safe to use. Signal annd connectivity is consistent. Have not experienced any sort of disruption during us. Includes all sorts of advance settings for those who is knowledgeable in how to set it up. Easy to use and setup. Extremely happy. Must buy for anyone who travels with pets.

Hot garbage. If you need a travel router look elsewhere.

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024

If you're looking for a travel router, please look elsewhere. I bought this to use for a trip I'm currently in the middle of so I could set up my own internal network along with a security cam in my hotel room.

I was able to get it up and running just fine but about 30 minutes after I set it up the 2.4 and 5G networks would simply disappear at random. Sometimes the 2.4G would disappear, other times the 5G would disappear. I would go into the router's interface and they would show that they were turned on and not hidden but when trying to connect to them they would not show up and any devices that were connected to whichever network disappeared would go offline.

Sometimes I could get the missing one to show up again by turning that network off then back on in the router's interface, but in many cases when I did this it would show up for a couple of minutes then disappear again. Rebooting the router would usually bring the missing network back but that wouldn't last more than a couple of hours then one of the networks would disappear again.

I've rebooted it more times than I can count. It also installed a firmware update at one point but that didn't fix the problem. 15 minutes after the update one of the networks disappeared again.

And when the 2.4G network disappears my camera goes offline which makes the camera completely useless. My other devices that support 2.4G and 5G will temporarily go offline then (usually) switch over to whichever one didn't disappear but the camera only supports 2.4 so it will go offline.

I never imagined this would turn out to be junk so unfortunately I tossed the box and now I can't return it. Biggest waste of $35 ever. I guess you get what you pay for... $35 could have bought me a half decent dinner.

There are many other travel routers available. No time to get another one since I'm already two days into my trip and I can just use the hotel's wifi (unfortunately not my security cam though) but next trip I take I will buy something else...anything else... a rock would have been more useful than this thing.
