Cool Little Router!

Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2022

Verified Purchase

This little router is pretty cool. I purchased it to give WiFi to my VoIP telephone device (Ooma Telo- it doesn't come with WiFi, only ethernet). I set it up basically as a WiFi extender, connected via WiFi to my home network, and plugged the Ooma into the LAN port. It works like a charm and was easy to setup with the included instructions. The Ooma wi-fi adapter is $50 ($20 more) and would only be good for that one use. I can always repurpose this pocket router in the future if I want. I also think this would be really handy to expand your WiFi network for smart devices that don't need a whole lot of bandwidth. I'm not sure if it would be ideal for WiFi cameras based on the bandwidth I'm getting, but it would probably work well enough.

It's cool that it can be used in different configurations, from an extender, to a WAP, to an independent router tethered to your phone or hotspot. That's cool. It also has built-in VPN capabilities, which would be especially handy while traveling. A lot of features in such a small package at a great price.

The shortfall I think is going to be that you're limited in data transfer speeds and only one WAN and LAN port. It only uses WiFi on 2.4ghz bands, so slower than the 5ghz networks. In WiFi extender mode, with my laptop hard wired on the LAN port, my download speeds were somewhere around 30 Mbps (and I usually get well over 300 Mbps on my home network). I would think it probably gets better transfer speeds as a WAP (connected to the internet via ethernet vice WiFi), but I haven't tried that out. BUT, it's plenty fast enough for VOIP phone calls and basic office work use, which is what I need.

Overall, I'm impressed.

Great simple functional product. Works great. (Some computer experience required.)

Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2019

Verified Purchase

I am very happy with this because it does exactly what I needed, plus, it's super small and lightweight. I did go for the one with the external antennae that might help with weaker WiFi networks. I needed it to connect to a Hotel/condo network that requires a login screen (often called a "captive" network or "captive login"). Once this is established, it provided my own subnet (with a password I can specify) for just my various equipment of computers, media players, video game stuff. Now they just connect to this local subnet instead of directly into the public hotel network.

Some notes: you have to update the firmware. It also says this in a printed note in the package, so no surprise there. You need to use another computer to load a file from their site, and then switch your network to go directly to this little box, then tell it to upgrade from the file you saves (should only take a few minutes, though it took me longer at first to find the right file and how to do it.) Mine came with an older 2.x firmware and there is a newer 3.x version which seems much more friendly to use and has more features and fixes.

note 2: to use a "captive login" network, there is a security setting in "Advanced DNS" you have to un-check. This is actually a good feature because it's trying to protect you from sites spoofing another site you think you are getting to -- but that's exactly how hotel networks for you to their login screen (i.e. go to any site and it puts you first onto the hotel login). For security, this is stopped by default. So there's a checkbox you have to change to allow it. There is a good document on their site explaining this.

Also I will use this when travelling in an RV for the same reason -- RV parks often have captive logins or limit connections; this allows you to share that among all your equipment. Even when you move from one park to the next, your equipment still knows how to connect to this unit -- you just need to log in to it from a computer to set it up for the new location and then all your equipment will be happy.

So anyway some advanced skills needed, but if you are messing with networking that's kind-of unavoidable. A great product at a reasonable price. Note that this one does not do the AC (5GHz) network.

A rather useful little box.

Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2023

Verified Purchase

Got this kind of on a whim. I was curious to see just what it was capable of - well, here goes...

Repeater -- sign into the unit, then sign it into you home's wifi, and use it as another wifi point.

Wireless access point - plug in the cable, sign into the unit, and use it as a wifi point.

Tethered access point - plug it into your phone, sign into the unit, and use it as a wifi point.

I don't know if it would function as wireless network adapter, though the Q/A implies that it will. Speed on the repeater and wireless access point was @60Mbps, while tethered was @30Mbps (single user). When being accessed it would draw 500mAh from your supply, so keep that in mind if you're using a power bank for remote use.

Für meine Zwecke perfekt!

Reviewed in Germany on December 4, 2023

Ich benötige eigentlich hauptsächlich ein Gerät mit 2 LAN-Buchsen, um ein Mischpult und einen Laptop anschließen zu können, und WLAN um im gleichen Netzwerk ein Tablet zu haben. Dafür funktioniert dieses Teil wunderbar. Firmware war beim Kauf sehr veraltet, lässt sich aber ohne Probleme updaten. Wie man es schafft dabei das Gerät zu zerschießen, erschließt sich mir nicht. WLAN läuft bei mir super, Tethering per USB funktioniert einwandfrei. Insgesamt ist der Funktionsumfang für das Geld sehr gut. Einziger Wermutstropfen ist das heutzutage Vergleichsweise lahme WLAN.

Praktische en kleine 4-in-1 mini-router die doet wat ie moet doen.

Reviewed in the Netherlands on July 25, 2023

Verified Purchase

Wij maakten een live stream van wedstrijden van onze sportvereniging. De router mocht op het modem van de sporthal. Daarmee hadden we gelijk een eigen hotspot (Wifi) voor de organisatie EN een kabelaansluiting voor de livestream. Dat werkte prima. En als het Internet uitvalt kun je zó een telefoon via USB-C aansluiten en via 'tethering' Internet over 4G/5G verzorgen.
Een andere toepassing is de router als repeater/versterker inzetten van een bestaand Wifi-netwerk.
Kortom, een 'duveltje in een doosie' zoals iemand zei :)

Pequeño y funcional, poco potente, pero probablemente te sirva

Reviewed in Spain on June 26, 2022

Verified Purchase

TL-DR. Pequeño, sirve para ver streaming 4K sin problemas. Y también para teletrabajar en la mayoría de los casos, videoconferencias incluidas.

Es muy pequeño, 58 x 58 x 25mm (sin las antenas puestas).

La interfaz de configuración es sencilla, así como la puesta en funcionamiento, aunque esto depende de tus conocimientos. Eso sí, cada vez que cambias algo importante en la configuración, se desconecta y hay que volver a conectar, pero una vez configurado, todo ok.
En la web del fabricante hay muchas guías explicativas (intuyo que sólo en inglés)

Para conectarlo a internet, se puede conectar a otro router, tanto por cable ethernet como por wifi (sea un router de fibra, o también un punto de acceso de un móvil). También se puede poner un pincho tipo modem 4G, pero esto no lo he probado. La conexión es USB "normal" no USB-C.

Puede servir archivos multimedia si usas un pincho o disco externo, pero no lo he probado.

La wifi que trae es 2.4Ghz y los puertos ethernet son de 100MBps.

Trae dos antenas, no he probado coberturas, pero otras reviews indican que el otro modelo que no lleva antenas, ya va bien. Este necesita las antenas, claro.

Trae un cable ethernet. Y un cable USB para conectarlo a un cargador de móvil (que no trae, necesita al menos 5volt 1A, es decir, poco) para alimentarlo. También se puede conectar por USB a otro dispositivo que lo alimente evitando el cargador de móvil.

Yo lo he probado conectándolo a mi router de fibra y teléfono móvil de diferentes formas.

Router fibra:
- wifi -> wifi (Conectando el router GL.iNet al router de fibra por wifi, y conectando por wifi un portátil (al router GL.iNet) para medir : <27Mbps)
- Cable -> cable (Conectándolo al router de fibra por cable ethernet y conectando también por cable un portátil al router para medir): Llega a 100MBps, ya que la conexión ethernet que usa tiene ese máximo.
- Wifi -> cable (Conectándolo al router de fibra por wifi, y el portátil al router GL.iNet por cable) : 45 de bajada, 62 de subida.
- Cable -> wifi: 42 de bajada, 50 de subida.

En definitiva, sirve para ver streaming 4K sin problemas.

Si usas una VPN, hay dos opciones, protocolo openvpn y protocolo wireguard (está última es más rápida). En cualquier caso las cifras anteriores bajan.
Wifi -> wifi, open vpn: 6Mbps de bajada, 4.5Mbps de subida.
Wifi -> wifi, wireguard: 22 Mbps de bajada y subida.

Con wireguard, sirve para 4K, con openvpn, para fullhd.

Probando un movil 4G+ como punto de acceso en lugar del router de fibra, y wireguard: 20Mbps.
