UniFi Travel Router: Fails the Wife Test – Teleport is Owner-Only and There’s No Workaround

kinda feel your pain on this one - found out the same thing when setting up for my partner. the owner-only teleport is a weird limitation. the clean workaround is to generate wireguard configs for each site you want her to reach, then load them into the utr under other vpn. you can set up a primary

Anyone else seen this device?

There are a few brands that use the same "shell" and possibly internals as the GL.iNet Slate AX. Where they differ is the Firmware running on them. But for that price.... um tell 'em they're dreaming...

Best Van Wifi Possible Solution

These travel routers are great. I got one for this very reason even though I do not have a van yet. I got the GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 (Slate AX). They get updated regularly and support for using VPNs and adblocking. There is a newer model than this that supports Wi-Fi 7 but it only has two ethernet ports

LED RACK preferences

A GL.iNet Slate AX (GL-AXT1800) Travel Router would be nice. I have several that I always bring for the racks I babysit, so I can go around front and configure and adjust without a tether.

Shots fired (back) feat. UTR

From PERSONAL experience trying these devices, yes, I can say that the Mudi 7 is a significantly better product. I have PERSONALLY used WiFi 7 on a certain device while traveling. You seem to think that the only time it is used on hotel WiFi. What about coworking spaces where you can use RJ-45? Some

Tech question: going to be in Thailand several months found an apartment to rent and they have internet included. There’s an Ethernet cord and wifi but I would prefer to use a private router that I can put a VPN on?

You'll want something like the GL-iNet Beryl or Slate AX - they're solid travel routers that can run VPN clients directly on the device. Just plug the ethernet into the router, set up your VPN service on it, then connect your devices to the router's wifi instead of the apartment's network

Need help setting up home IP while traveling (Slate 7 + NordVPN) willing to pay

If you want to use your actual home IP address while travelling, then yes, you'll need a server device at your home. You can then connect remotely from the Slate 7 using multiple methods - traditional VPN (Wireguard or OVPN), or virtual networks (Tailscale, ZeroTier, or AstroWarp) Which of these you

Travel router for home

The Beryl AX supports faster WiFi speed than the Slate AX out of the box. But if you’re using WireGuard for VPN (a common use for travel routers), the Slate AX supports 550 Mbps max speed vs the 300 Mbps that the Beryl AX supports. So basically: if using vanilla WiFi, Beryl AX is better. If using VP

Connecting GL.Inet to Global protect

All of them work fine with WireGuard running on the GL iNet. I've used the Slate Plus, Slate AX, and Beryl AX. The Beryl AX would be my recommendation. Palo Alto Global Protect works fine, as does Cisco AnyConnect. AnyConnect will reconnect as it does path MTU discovery, but that's only a problem fo

VPN router?

My GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 (Slate AX) router is excellent. It’s billed as travel but permanently on home network. They have a newer one GL.iNet GL-BE3600 (Slate 7) which I’m changing over to.
