GL.iNetGL-AR300M16-Ext Portable Mini Travel Wireless Pocket Router - WiFi Router/Access Point/Extender/WDS | OpenWrt | 2 x Ethernet Ports | OpenVPN/Wireguard VPN | USB 2.0 Port

Its really small. Easy to use. The range is great as well. We have a 90 foot garden and signal went to the bottom of the garden and still got 20 meg speed. normally I get nothing. Crazy. The UI is great and it updated to the latest firmware and restarted fine, and thats without having to download the firmware and stick it on a USB drive. If I had paid double for this I would till very be happy with it. It also acts as a repeater as well. proper amazing for £30. and it runs from a micro usb cable. Got it powered from an always on USB port on a gaming rig then through powerlines to the router at the other side of the house.

This pocket router can also be configured as an access point to extend your home or office network. I’ve replaced an old router I was using as an access point and found the signal from GL-AR300M16-Ext better than that from the router that serves the rest of the house.The web UI is very intuitive and there are a ton of features I won’t use but I’m not worried given the price point.You do need to find power, I’m using an old USB phone charger.One tiny criticism is the default password is not unique so make sure you change it to something sensibly secure.I did buy this thinking I’d need two to cover my office and garden however one is perfectly adequate.

Very good modem, but don't expect very fast speeds, the open VPN works very well. It is fairly stable, but needs occasional reboots.

This is a great product for the cost but I would have preferred to spend an extra $10 and get one that has an easier time with streaming. On a 45 minute show, it probably buffers 10 times or so. It only buffers for a second or two, so it is only a minor inconvenience. It is very easy and straight forward to set up on the app but very difficult to do so on a laptop. I am happy with this product but would spend a little extra money next time for something with a slightly better cpu.

Handy device if a little bit tricky to configure. I wanted a 2-port ethernet to wifi adapter so I could connect a couple of devices in my office to the wifi network, without having to run a cable from my broadband router to the office. This does the job.

Great price and easy to setup

I bought this to provide wireless connectivity to a digital mixing desk.The reviews were a it hit and miss in terms of the set-up but decided to give it a go due to its small footprint and price.I've wired the antennae out and upgraded those and everything works greatPros - it is super simple to set-up, I had it working in minutes. It is very small (which for me is great) and it is god value for money for a 2.4GHz router (it's not dual channel, which isn't an issue for me)Cons - the major problem with this item is the power supply lead (small usb) which falls out with the slightest movement of anything at all. I've got the router velcroed down positioned so the the lead is against the side of the case but even like that it still manages to fall out !!So in short this would be great for a fixed installation but if you're planning on building it into anything that you might move the power lead will keep falling out and will drive you potty !!

This little device is amazing.I WFH and connect over VPN to remote desktop. This works fine.I purchased as a means to covert a tethered phone to our house network as a drop in solution for when the main internet was down.Having had an outage and told by talk talk my internet was down and wouldn't be repaired for 3-5 days (0 days notice it was. Sunday!!) And as I work from home I needed a way to QUICKLY leverage our phones data to replace it.Well experienced in tethering over WiFi, I knew I needed a bridge that could connect to the phones over WiFi and make that internet available over cable - to the house mesh and therefore the rest of the house.It did this with bells on.Didn't stop there tho, with the help of a usb cable the phones can 'tether' via USB to this device and the speeds are much faster as you don't have to 'repeat' over WiFi.So this is what I settled on, mainly because the mobile signal in our house is rubbish so wanted to get every drop out.The final amazing thing is, it fails over! If you plug in your main internet AND tether, it will use them in order, and if the main internet fails it will switch to the tether and you probably won't even notice!Love it.
