Review: Nice travel router - 2025 Update: Took the rating from 3 stars to 5. First: Mainline OpenWRT now supports the device chipset which means I can use official downloads instead of ones made by the company that did not provide source code. Second: While the Ad-hoc/IBSS mode is not supported by the chipset, 802.11s mesh point mode *is* supported. This is a better long-term solution, and works great. I wanted to do B.A.T.M.A.N with some Pi Zero units (which can only do Ad-hoc, station, and AP modes), but that project fizzled out. Combining these with my home router also setup with 802.11s gave a very reliable mesh network (these provided extended wifi out on the patio). Original review: First, let me say that I did not purchase these (I bought two) to use in their intended purpose as a travel router. I was more interested in them as a cost-efficient learning platform for building a batman-adv mesh network. Unfortunately, the chipset in this little device is a MediaTek MT7628AN v1 which doesn't seem to have mainline OpenWRT support. The manufacturer does maintain several firmware images and an opkg repository, but I do not see any source code posted for their customized OpenWRT images (GPL violation?). The good: * Small and travel friendly. * Sufficient wifi signal * Easy to set up and use its basic functionality out of the box. Easily sets up as a wifi repeater. * Has a custom web UI that simplifies the most frequent, basic configurations. For more advanced options, LuCI is also available. The bad: * The wireless chipset doesn't support ad-hoc / IBSS mode which means they're useless as-intended for my batman-adv mesh project. * Can't even query the capabilities of the wireless chipset. "iw phy" returns nothing, and all of the radio interfaces seem to be "hardwired" into pre-defined modes (ra0 = iface used for AP mode, apcli0 = iface used in STA mode, wds0-3 for WDS). * I honestly don't trust this device not to send every secret that flows through it to Beijing, and the next thing I do will be a WireShark analysis. Assuming the silicon itself isn't compromised, I was hoping to simply reflash a vanilla OpenWRT image and build on that, but the architecture is not supported in mainline, and the chipset of the device was not published in the product description. Before giving up on these, I'm going to look into setting up a build environment for the chipset and compile my own image. * The OpenVPN client is garbage. It periodically disconnects and refuses to reconnect without several reboots. Clients lose internet access completely. Internet is otherwise solid with VPN disabled. Working on setting up WireGuard to see if it is any better. This is pretty much a core advertised feature of the product, so this is pretty unforgivable. * Chipset isn't supported in mainline OpenWRT. While the manufacturer's opkg repo does provide packages for that architecture, and that repo has so-far covered my needs, it makes me solely rely on the manufacturer. I suppose I could mirror their repo locally, but community support would be much preferred. * 3rd party OpenWRT packages are pretty much off the table. As with OpenWRT itself on this device, I'm looking into compiling the packages from source myself to bypass this limitation.
Review: Affordable VPN router - 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 desertcart 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ nice little thing
*by V***6 on January 17, 2026*

this particular model is not super powerful (cpu/ram) but very tiny and offers many things out of the box as promised. it supports openvpn and wireguard vpn, the UI/UX is nice as well. it uses openwrt which gives you a lot of flexibility if you are interested in customizations. storage is limited, you’d need to flash it with your own set of packages and loose the manufacturer polished experience if something extra is needed. in my cases i wanted to use it for a personal ipsec s2s vpn tunnel, which is not supported by default and requires kernel settings not present in the default one + a bit more custom configuration/routing etc. overall i’d recommend it and buy it again even though it didn’t give me what i needed out of the box, it’s better than tp-link travel router. this particular model should work fine for a few wifi clients.
