Working abroad while employer requires US-based network access
To avoid detection, you must move the VPN off your laptop and onto a dedicated hardware device. This creates a "black box" environment: your work laptop simply thinks it is plugged into a standard router at home, unaware that the router is actually tunneling data across the globe.Here is the step-by

For hotels, do y’all bring your own devices from home, or setup Plex, etc. on the hotel room TV?
I carry a 4k Roku and my own wifi router/repeater, GL.iNET. Feel like a dork but plug and play and it works. All traffic goes through VPN. Don't have to connect to any network new networks except on the travel router.

Anyone else feel like being a digital nomad massively increases your data exposure?
Travel router+junk email address. Using your own firewall on the travel router can provide a lot of protection. It can also be preconfigured with a VPN, so all traffic can be hidden from the local network. Make sure you have browser settings/add-ons that force https. The other nice thing with a trav

Tried Ubuntu, am loving it. But there's one thing that's not allowing me to switch.
A little travel router would work. Look at GL.iNet or TP-Link if on a severe budget.

GLInet killer?
No. There is some overlap, but the main purpose of this is as a bridge into other UniFi networks on the go. For the average user it may be little different from the GLiNet, but for advanced users it's lack of customization is a huge gap. The fact that the GL series devices are just openwrt underneat

best travel router for multiple devices?
I recently purchased a GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 travel from Amazon as a constant business traveler. This thing is a TANK, and it streamlined connecting all the devices I use: phone, laptop, and an Nvidia Shield. Plus, VPN usage is integrated, so you can sail the high seas if you need to. If you can afford

Travel in style. UniFi Style.
GL.iNet also gives you full access to the machine. SSH and can install arbitrary firmware. I'm doubtful the travel router is going to offer SSH access...

It's so tiny -- part 2
If I may ask… where you do see your DNS requests going? I set mine up today and I was expecting them to go through my gateway (like my phone/laptop when they’re connected directly through Teleport) but it seems like all DNS goes through the upstream of whatever network the UTR is on. As a result, I

Can i use travel router to tether my phone cellular data?
Yes you can, I have a couple GL.iNet travel routers that I occasionally use for this exact purpose. In my experience it has helped some with temperature since I can turn off my wifi. But during heavy use can still slightly elevate the temperature. As for battery, it will also charge the battery over

Is there a device I can connect to USB port of my (ISP provided) router, to have an exit node at home to connect to when I'm traveling?
Gl-iNet make travel routers that can run Tailscale. They're easier to setup than a Pi. (I've done both). Plug it into your network and enable subnet routing in Tailscale EDIT And exit node
