Does it do vlan tagging?
Its openWrt, so yes. You can do pretty much anything.
their new one is on sale as well https://www.amazon.com.au/GL-iNet-GL-MT1300-Wireless-Pocket-…
wireguard speed is a lot faster
That's a great price ($82.90) too.
I chose a Slate for myself because of the lower power requirements but if that wasn't such a factor I'd have picked this (the Beryl).
any idea if this device has hardware encryption/decryption acceleration ? AFAIK, the OpenVPN performance on hardware that doesn't support hardware encryption acceleration sucks…
Are these units (inc newer models) suitable for primary home routers? Or adding a second as a repeater? What's the WIFI performance like?
I also wanted to know also as I want to get one to extend my existing wifi. How's performance and range?
I've been using a mango v2 as the main router for 6 month
https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B073TSK26W/ref=ppx_yo_d…
I run sqm; samba file share; wireguard on it. I have in total of 15ish devices connected at the same time. Roughly only 5 devices are active, and all the others are connected home appliances.
The router's CPU is constantly overloaded because of adblocka nd sqm but is performing fine without fault
I can't speak for the range tho since it is a different model, but stability should be fine. Also, is there any reason that you wouldn't want this model instead?

I've been using a mango v2 as the main router for 3 month plus a TP-link run as AP mode.
13 devices connected at the same time most of time 4 devices are active.
The router's CPU load average load is 0.8 because i not running samba or other service on it.
I punched a hole on the top of mongo and add a small heatsink on the CPU, turns out it's NOT necessary for my usage.
For less than 20 home devices GL-AR750S-Ext (Slate) should be totally fine, it has more powerful CPU.
But the wifi coverage only suits small unit/apartment, you have to add a Wireless AP with it for bigger building.
Dumb question, do these routers support NBN connection directly? Or do we still have to use the small box from NBN first?
These are just routers, you still need a modem to connect to fibre or vdsl
Thank you for the reply.
Hey guys, so I have two very average TP link routers in my apartment (https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/networking/modems-&-rout…).
One up stairs and one downstairs, the upstairs one is a bridge using a power line from JB.
If I bought two of these would I see any noticeable improvement in speed or range ?
