    How does it compare to the GL-MT300N-V2 Mango? I use mine as the main router in my house, connected to an old phone on Felix, it sometimes chokes/freezes. Nothing that a reboot doesn't fix, but…

      I have the mango too. This is a lot better. I used it in a similar way for 12 months with no hitches.

          From the research I did Felix data speed caps out at 40mbps so there is a good chance the freezing is just due to that or most likely it is the the single core processor and tiny amount of RAM in the Mango.

          I got a GL-AXT1800 that I use on a 1Gbps connection and I love it. No problems whatsoever.

        • Averell on 12/02/2026 - 22:02

          They didn't mention the power consumption.
          I once had a Beryl (1300), plugged a 2A source, and got rebooted every now and then.

    • mitt on 12/02/2026 - 18:20

      The mango is very basic, essentially a throwaway router.

      I used a mango too as my primary, ended up getting a Flint 2 & all those weird little issues vanished. All the Gl-inet routers can use a usb connected phone like that as their WAN uplink.

      • bashar20 on 12/02/2026 - 22:15

        Mango not intended to be a primary router. It’s a travel router and has its own use cases.

    • DaTa on 12/02/2026 - 19:55

      Yeah the mango is abit long in the tooth now, I tend to keep it around as a travel router.

    • furyou on 12/02/2026 - 22:37

      I have a mango. I can't use it at all, it runs like 100kb/s for me… gonna dump it.

      • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 22:48

        I get 20-40 Mbps from mine over Ethernet and wifi (repeated over by other routers around the house), which sorta matches what Felix gives on the modem phone. But the wifi on the Mango is crappy—I could never get it to work as well on the much older TP-Link and Huawei I have around the house from past DSL plans. So I bought this one. Also bc turning on vpn on the mango slows it to a crawl. Now sure what I'll do with it when this one arrives.

        • Wat on 13/02/2026 - 00:22

          which modem phone did you use? Can it dial out, take calls and send SMS? Thanks.

            @Wat: It's an old Xiaomi Mi A1. I don't use it for calls, only for internet, but I'm sure it does dial and text.

      Do you already have a travel router? If not I highly recommend getting one. Do you travel alot? Guessing by your name probably

      • FlyerOne on 12/02/2026 - 22:08

        No. Yes. I bought one.

      • tikeyike on 13/02/2026 - 10:44

        The only thing I'll add is if you're not spending a lot of time in a hotel or one location, it's probably not worth packing. Last year I travelled Europe for 3 months and I brought my Beryl with me and I barely had the chance to use it. I would spend most of my days out and about.

        On the other hand, if you're travelling with a family with multiple devices, it probably makes more sense.

    • quokked on 20/02/2026 - 09:58

      I got a Slate 7 to play with when it was on sale, it's now doing duty as my Range Extender and is my main router i connect to behind a VPN with Adblock.
      Really easy to setup and reliable.

  • epicttiimm on 12/02/2026 - 17:09

    Great price and even better router.

    I’ve used it 24/7 as my home router in a 1 bedroom apartment in Sydney for 3 years now, tethered to an old iPhone 12 mini with a Felix unlimited 40mbps SIM for $20 p/m.

    • OzzyBrak on 12/02/2026 - 17:30

      I thought Felix was $40 p/m.

      • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 17:42

        Not for the "first 3 months" 😉

          Each quarter a new tooth from the wisdomteeth set is looking for a plan.

    • HaydosK on 12/02/2026 - 17:41

      Definitely one big upside to these routers. I have seen many creative ways to get cheap Internet access from it.

    • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 17:44
      +8

      I'm on the same setup, for a family, tho, and using the Mango. Tempted to upgrade, after Gemini told me this:

      Felix’s terms explicitly forbid using the SIM as a "home internet replacement" or in a "modem." They detect this by looking at the TTL (Time to Live) value of your data packets.

      • The Mechanism: When a packet leaves your phone, it has a TTL (usually 64). If it passes through a router first, the router subtracts 1 (TTL becomes 63). Felix sees "63" and knows you are tethering.
      • The Fix on Beryl AX: The Beryl AX (running firmware 4.x) has an easy toggle in the UI to "Mangle TTL." By setting the outgoing TTL to 65, the packet reaches the tower at exactly 64—making the router's traffic look identical to your phone's internal traffic.
        • Note: This is much easier to configure on the Beryl AX's modern interface than on the older Mango firmware.
      • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 18:11
        +4

        It actually wasn't too hard setting the Mango to do the same:

        ssh root@192.168.8.1
        cat <<EOF >> /etc/firewall.user
        iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING 1 -j TTL --ttl-set 65
        iptables -t mangle -I PREROUTING 1 -j TTL --ttl-set 65
        EOF
        /etc/init.d/firewall restart

    • KaliKaliKali on 12/02/2026 - 17:47

      Isn't it 20mbps at $40?

      • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 18:07
        +1

        No, they upped it to 40 Mbps a few months ago. And it's $20 for the "first 3 months" 😉

  • stephenharrington on 12/02/2026 - 17:10

    Good price! I've got one of these and they are great as a travel router.
    Just be aware the new model / same size Beryl 7 BE3600 (GL-MT3600BE) with Wifi 7 has just been released, so I guess this will be runout stock to make way for it, if that factors into your thinking …

    As far as travel router goes how is this more beneficial than sharing a hotspot connection with an iPhone or similar?

    • RyanG01 on 12/02/2026 - 18:03
      +3

      In places like hotels where you have to pay per device (per MAC address) this can bypass that, and you will only need to pay for the router, and then other devices can "piggyback" off the single router.

      It is also handy for Wi-Fi where your devices can automatically connect to the router, instead of having to manually join other wifi networks on all devices. Before travelling, connect all devices to this, save the Wifi password and when travelling if you have multiple devices, you will only need to connect this router once, and then everything else will automatically connect to this router with the saved connection details.

      • oO0Dam0Oo on 12/02/2026 - 18:22

        Thanks for the great response. Would this work on paid wifi for flights where you pay per user? Assuming the usb c power is not an issue.

        • oO0Dam0Oo on 12/02/2026 - 18:38

          Answering my own Q. Yes you can use on plane to share one wifi subscription with multiple people. Sold.

              @OzzyBrak: Most airlines technically don't allow you to use a powerbank during the flight anymore. Could possibly use the USB charging port if enough or a power outlet.

    • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 17:46

      It's small and light. Other than that, it's perfectly fine as a home router—I use the much inferior Mango, and it's been satisfactory for a family of 3 (we don't game or watch 4K, tho).

    • netsurfer on 12/02/2026 - 17:59

      Travel routers tend to have:

      • WISP (Wireless Internet Service Provider) mode
      • Can be powered using a USB-C charger (hence suitable for travel)

      Disavantages:

      • Tend to have less LAN ports
      • Due to compact size, range most likely won't be as good as traditional mainstream routers
    • HaydosK on 12/02/2026 - 22:24

      Because those don't have the same features that come on home routers like wifi repeater mode and USB c power input. Also the size is great for travel.

      • wisdomtooth on 12/02/2026 - 22:29

        those don't have … USB c power input

            @HaydosK:

            That's a travel router dude 🤦.

            Exactly. Didn't you just say travel routers don't have the same features that come on home routers like wifi repeater mode and USB c power input? Well, this one does. In fact, @netsurfer just said up above that USB-C charging is a common feature in travel routers.

            • jwh on 13/02/2026 - 07:32

    Bit of a niche question here. IOS stopped supporting supporting PP2P VPN Connections a couple of years ago and thus it makes it difficult for me to use Remote Desktop If I tether my Iphone via a wireless router, will it be possible for me to get around this?

    • JJBB24 on 13/02/2026 - 07:29

      You can but it’s not out of the box, you’d need to install it as a separate package (which is relatively straightforward).

      But to answer your question, you’d be able to join this router as a client to your VPN server and it should route the traffic correctly for your Remote Desktop.

    I keep looking for a reason to replace my Slate (GL-AR750S), which I've had for years and am happy with.

    But they've gone in the wrong direction.

    They've sacrificed features, like another LAN port, for more speed. The Slate already gives me all the speed - 250 Mb/s and more - that my Telstra network phone plan allows me.

    Got one early last year (2025) but didn't get to use it as a travel router until early December when I was in Perth for a week. Set it up before hand so my personal phone, work phone and laptop connected to the hidden Wi-Fi and VPN set up for NordVPN.

    Tethered to the hotel Wi-Fi and everything connected. I'd been to same hotel the previous year and knew the drop off in Wi-Fi strength from the desk to anywhere else in the room was noticeable. The Beryl fixed that with added bonus of all devices connecting, AdGuard and VPN.

    The only other time I used it was when an IoT device wasn't resolving the URL the manufacturer had given us and I couldn't get the IP address it had been allocated by the corporate network without contacting 3rd party IT provider ($$). Instead I set both RJ45 ports to LAN and connected the IoT device and my laptop to Beryl. Voilà - the web interface showed me the IP address and I could connect via IP instead of domain name.

            @wisdomtooth: Cheers … looking on AliExpress, such a card allows an esim to be written to a proxy physical card. Most Android phones support eSIM these days so would such an adaptor still be needed? (excuse my ignorance) . Or are these more of use with USB data dongles?

              @noz: Nah, it's just that my Xiaomi phones don't come esim ready. And they were waaaay cheaper than the competition than $23.

    Not a deal at that price.
