Slate AX

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

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

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.

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

ugh hotel wifi is the worst for these. try this: connect to utr's wifi, then manually go to 192.168.1.1 or http://neverssl.com to force portal. if that doesnt work, factory reset via paperclip then update firmware. honestly though i gave up on utr and use GL.iNet Slate AX - its portal detection just

What you're describing is the WiFi-as-WAN feature, sometimes called 'Wireless ISP mode' or 'Wireless WAN' in router firmware. Solid options: Plug-and-play, low hassle: GL.iNet Slate AX (GL-AXT1800), around 120 USD. Designed exactly for this use case. WiFi-as-WAN is a first-class feature in the GUI.

I use a Slate AX as my home router and it’s wonderful. But here are a few things to consider: GL.iNet routers are really bad at converting USB tethering to WAN, especially the cheaper travel routers like the Beryl AX. It takes much more processing than Ethernet or repeater mode. I get 500 Mbps down

Check out Tailscale — it pretty much does everything you’re describing. It builds a secure mesh VPN between your devices, so you can reach your PLC network from anywhere without messing with port forwarding or IT approvals. Grab a GL.iNet travel router (Mango, Slate AX, etc.), plug it into your cont

Hello! You've come to the right place. I don't know of any other router better for VPNs and Tailscale than GL.iNet. The one caveat, which you will hear a lot if you read online enough, is that there is no official "kill switch" for Tailscale on these routers. This just means if you happen to have a

Yep. I have 2 of the smaller Slate's, then they went to the larger Slate AX which I have 4 of (I use for event work). I wish they weren't as big, but I love how they perform in multiple environments. Interested in what Ubiquiti is doing here, but would take a lot to pull me away from the GL.iNet pro
