GL.iNetGL-MT300N-V2 (Mango) Portable Mini Travel Wireless Pocket VPN WiFi Router - 2X Ethernet Ports | USB 2.0 | OpenWrt | OpenVPN/Wireguard for Public & Hotel Wi-Fi | Easy to Set up via Admin Panel

I recently purchased this Wi-Fi router, and I’m really impressed with its performance. The setup was straightforward, and it works seamlessly with all my devices. The signal strength is strong throughout my home, even in rooms far from the router. Streaming movies and online gaming are smooth, without any noticeable lag. The security features give me peace of mind, and I appreciate the parental controls for managing internet access. Overall, it’s a reliable router that delivers excellent speed and coverage at a reasonable price. Highly recommend!

Small and perfect for streaming devices to get past Geo-restrictions to watch content from other countries. The downside is that it's powered through micro USB instead of USB-C. It does not come with a USB charger so you need one. Works with surf shark wire guard VPN. You can connect your cell phone as an Internet provider in a pinch if necessary. Surf Shark doesn't have a VPN client for Apple TV. This solved the problem.Additional Info.The router runs OpenWRT and supports multiple VPN profiles in memory which can come in handy to access streaming content from across the globe. It supports multiple protocols such as Open VPN, L2TP, IPsec, WireGuard, & IKE2. The company also provides cloud management apps for Android and perhaps Apple. So once you set up your various VPN profiles, switching between them can be done easily with the phone app. Several popular VPN providers are already listed but you can manually set your VPN profiles using your provider vpn.conf from their website or enter it manually with a cell or PC.Here is another plus, if you add an inexpensive ethernet switch to the LAN port, you can connect multiple streaming devices. I use an Apple 4K Gen 3 and a Nvidia Shield TV 2019. My Roku can connect to this router using the built-in 2.4Ghz wifi hotspot this router provides.This won't replace a full home main router unless your needs are very modest. But given its small size, the modest needs of streaming devices, and how small streaming devices like Amazon Sticks, Roku, and Walmart streaming devices are, it is a no-brainer for travel as you can put them inside a case and pack it with your luggage. Just a reminder, this does not come with a USB dongle/charger. But most people have many lying around in draws from old phones.

My requirement for this device was fairly specific. I travel every week for work and have begun bringing my Nintendo Switch on these trips with me. The problem is that the Nintendo Switch is notoriously horrible at connecting to wifi with a captive portal (aka registration splash screen). Such as hotels or other public wifi might require for confirmation to connect via a browser window. Basically the Switch hidden browser is worthless for these situations and hardly ever works.So I bought this device as a work around. By using this router to connect to the hotel wifi I only need it to make the connection and then it rebroadcasts my own private network. Which the Nintendo Switch can connect to just like any normal wifi that doesn't use captive portals within internet browsers (such as your home network).Setup was fairly straightforward. Granted I am a Network Engineer so I have a slight advantage. However, I found the instructions easy enough for anyone. My only minor complaint is that the router doesn't start broadcasting unless you toggle the "mode" switch located on the side (next to the reset button). The instructions aren't clear on that and the toggle switch itself isn't even labelled (but it is called out in the manual). Anyway turn that on first.Once I had setup the router per the instructions. I went ahead and pre-connected all of my devices (phone, laptop, Nintendo) while it was connected to my home network.Then a few days later I setup the router in a hotel. Using my phone I went to the router IP address (admin menus) and connected it to the hotel wifi. Then I launched a browser via my phone to do the hotel wifi registration. Done.Now the router is on the hotel wifi and all of my devices are connected to the router. One IP address. One registration (instead of having to register multiple times for multiple devices). Turned on my Nintendo Switch and it worked perfectly. No messing around with the Nintendo browser.So in summary. The router works on hotel wifi with captive portal. You only need to perform the hotel registration once and all of your devices are good.For $20 something bucks this just saved me a month of hotel registration headaches that I have been fighting. Thumbs up and highly recommend for anyone else in a similar situation.Side bonus this will give your personal devices an extra layer of protection from those public networks. This router is also very small (about 2x2 inches) so it easily fits inside a Nintendo Switch travel case if you own one.
