  • Anyone know how I can use this as a home router and connect from overseas?

    • Create a wire guard server and connect to it

      • So you would need two of these then? One to run the VPN server plugged in at home, one to take with you when travelling?

        I will be travelling for a couple of months through multiple countries and want to connect via home just like I was sitting at my desk. But no one will be home to maintain/reboot whatever is running the VPN server here.

        • Laptop/phone/ipad can just run the client software unless you specifically need a router at both ends. For instance if you wanted to create a wifi network where you are that all devices can seamlessly connect to and appear to be at home.

          • @Pobman: Thanks. On my work PC I have to switch between multiple software VPNs for accessing different systems. So my idea was to have a hardware connected VPN on both sides, then it should be completely transparent to the software I'm running?

            From what I can see something like a Beryl/Opal running the Wireguard server, and a mango as the travel client would do.

            • @Jase83: I'm trying to set this up at home but have no idea what im doing. I work a remote job but will be overseas in a few months and want to make it seem I'm working from my home IP

              • @poormansfriedchicken: I'm in the exact same situation but haven't bought anything yet - just researching. Interested to hear how you go!

            • @Jase83: I'd probably reverse that, Mango at home and then an Opal out in the field. Multiple devices can then connect to the Opal over its better wifi and through to the Mango. Mango is fairly limited in speed, if you have 40mbit upload at home it's not going to max that out. If you only have 20mbit upload then a GL-AR300M16-Ext on each end is going to max things out pretty much for $33 a unit. I run a GL-AR300M16 off the USB on the back of a Telstra router, it uses that little power.

    • Yes, I've had one of their routers doing this in the UK for 3 years now and only once needed a reset in all that time. You can get away with one of the cheaper models if you only care about creating a VPN link.

    • Silly, but a genuine question; why do you need to do this? Files/storage? Control smart appliances? Anything else?

      • +3

        I work remote and company requires me to be in 'Australia'. I will be going overseas for a few days but they aren't flexible with my work conditions

        • +1

          yeah.. this router is perfect for that,, Can load Nordvpn or similar and connect this router as wifi bridge, that's it,,,

        • Do you need 2 of these units to do that?

    • With many ISPs turn to CGNAT, you might want to check if yours is offering public IP.

    • if you have another device at home that can stay on, you could use tailscale and set the home device as the exit node.

  • I love how small and compact these are. Also USB C.

    But the new Slate AX is nearly here and I expect this to fall even more in price.

    • it is already here they ran a pre-release promotion on a special price 79USD now they have pre-order @ 119.00USD

  • you can run wireguard on these devices

  • +1

    Looks near identical to the GL.iNet GL-SFT1200 , which is significantly cheaper at $67 on amazon and recently was at $59. Why is this one more expensive? It's a touch faster but is that it?

  • So with this I could just buy an Aldi mobile sim and plug it in, and use the sim’s data or do I have to get a data only sim/plan?

    Edit: actually… never mind… I think I’m getting this product confused with their LTE gateway products.

    • Don’t worry about that - good people have nothing to hide.

    • Eh wtf? Is this common for routers?

    • welp, deal breaker. atleast they are open about it though.

      • They're not really open about it though? It's hidden in a privacy policy whilst their product sprouts "secure" several times. Nothing secure about that.

    • so what personal data do they actually get ?

      • It's vague.

        • I look in my AR-750 configuration and do not see any personal data

          only using their DyDNS will give them my outward facing IP

    • That's probably only related to he information you provide to order the device, which they need to get it to you, not some ongoing scraping of your info through the device

    • this is just their website privacy policy
