GL-BE3600 (Slate 7)

N'oice! Also, re: the opening joke about "being a YouTube knobber who gets shiz for free and early", I really hope that it played as clearly tongue in cheek as intended (British sarcasm is the WORST). TBH I'm genuinely super chuffed that they prioritized the first wave early buyers, as they didn't '

It really depends on your use case. If you are using it as a travel router with < 300Mbps VPN speeds, then the AX is fine. Most hotels I use have very limited internet speeds 12-20Mbps so any router more powerful would be a waste unless there are other factors. If you are setting up a site to site V

I use GL.iNet GL-BE3600 (Slate 7). This a travel router. It creates a local network in your RV. I connect all of my stuff to that network and only that network. The Slate 7 has a couple of options to get internet access. It can take an ethernet cable in, it can also act as a WiFi repeater. So depend

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.

They're not "large", but the Slate series is basically 3x the size of the UTR. And even the Beryl is twice as thick. It's all a series of tradeoffs, right? I would concede that the Beryl AX with stock OpenWRT on it, for example, is a much more flexible platform that offers better compute. You could

Unironically, if you hate the connector-and-dongle combo as much as I do and still NEED to use Wi-Fi, may I suggest the GL.iNet Slate 7? It's a portable router that can be set up as a Wi-Fi repeater for your network. You can then hard-wire your PC to it, and you can still use it as a router for ever

GL.iNET routers generally have Tailscale built in that you can route to exit nodes, and let you use Ethernet, Hotspot, or WiFi for WAN. The Slate AX or Slate 7 would be a great choice and very portable routers so you can take them anywhere for the most part

Wow I didn't know that MSC would lock down their cruise ship network so securely. I'm happy that you guys are sharing this information because my family and I plan to cruise with them soon. I will say that I can't imagine how MSC is much more secured then Royal Caribbean cruise ships. I literally go
