GL-BE3600 (Slate 7)

For those that haven't checked recently, looks like 4.7.2 is finally out for the Slate 7. This is a 64-bit build, and includes the screen pin lock, as well as the ability to add/remove panes from the display. Also fixes my Wireguard and Tailscale speed issues.

Does your student dorm allow you to set up your own router using their network? That was not allowed when I was in college, and it's not worth having any issues with your university over WiFi speeds. If you place a router in your dorm room, you're going to have double NAT (bad for gaming) unless you

Their VPN app includes the excellent AdGuard Private DNS for free. They currently have a great deal if you buy AdGuard Family and AdGuard VPN. If you have already bought AdGuard Family, get the 5 year plan for AdGuard VPN (which also includes AdGuard Private DNS) and use code 'retail30' on checkout

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 would recommend getting a travel router like a GL-iNet Beryl AX or even step up to the Slate 7 if you want wifi7. This will allow you to run your own network behind the college network so you have full control of your security. You can set it up with a VPN connection for remote access too.

The TP-Link is Broadcom, TR3600 too, according to the official page. Those two are dead ends. The GL.iNet seems to be MT based: https://forum.gl-inet.com/t/beryl-7-gl-mt3600be/64350. There's also a GL-BE3600, using a Qualcomm SoC - https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-be3600/.

It isn't that difficult to do if you use the right equipment. I highly recommend GL.iNet routers for doing it. This site does a walk through of it: https://thewirednomad.com/vpn I would use the Flint 2 at home and a Slate 7 or Beryl AX for the travel side. Make sure you setup goodcloud on the router

If you’re there for a while, it may be worth getting a travel router. It connects to the hotel Wi-Fi and then acts like your own home router would for your PS5 and other devices. That generally gets around the hotel login page issue. The GL.iNet Slate 7 is one of the nicer ones, but there are cheape

Compra un travel router como el GL.iNet GL-BE3600 e instala tu VPN ahí, y nunca te conectes desde otra red que no sea la del travel router desde el Mac

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
