    just got this yesterday without the coupon…….

    • sqheaven on 19/03/2025 - 16:11

      So if you don't travel, what's the use case then?

      • happydaisy on 19/03/2025 - 16:17

        I have two set up as a dedicated wireguard bridge between two sites.

        They run scripts to backup the NAS each day

      • mk8 on 19/03/2025 - 16:27

        I use one with my Chromecast connected to it, with NordVPN configured to connect to whatever region I need to for streaming. It connects over Wifi to my standard Wifi network where all my other devices are connected for standard Internet access.

        I also use it for travel by tether off the hotel wifi or ethernet, but VPN back to AU for iView, or wherever for streaming, data privacy, etc…

        It's a great little unit.

        • sqheaven on 19/03/2025 - 19:37

          Price is showing as 88.83 with zipsmile, I'll bite

          It's a great gadget, will try if I find any use

          You can run NordVPN directly on Chromecast

        Wifi / LAN access point for an area away from wifi coverage (remote room with a LAN port) that can also provide wired connection.

        Connect back to main internet router/network via this.

      • Sapiens on 19/03/2025 - 17:53

        I use it 24/7 at home - best interface and feature set at this price

      • Kaboda on 19/03/2025 - 18:48

        My LG tv wifi was really playing up. No lan point near by so I just used it as a wifi repeater and Lan to the tv. But this is a must have for travel it's a life saver.

          LG replaced my Wifi module for free, now I use Chromecast if it plays up, good idea to have this as a good backup router. These days I am using a lot of hotspot to join meetings from my car lol

      You can piggy back to other wifi coverage as a rebroadcaster, connect your multiple devices to this one device while setting up only this device to connect to a hotel wifi for example.

      Work tremendously well during our last Japan trip

      • A 1 on 19/03/2025 - 17:59

        This is exactly the use case I was looking for, specifically for Japan! Just confirming, this can connect to the wifi in a hotel (or wired ethernet) and you can essentially have your own wifi network set up to connect all devices to yeah? Did this work everywhere for you in Japan? How did you power the unit, did you need a different power supply or…?

        • cmoddoo on 19/03/2025 - 19:42
          +5

          Thats correct yes, it worked at all hotels I've stayed in the last trip in at least 6 different hotels all around Japan. I tried wired too and it works.

          You set up through the phone app, to change the wifi settings every time you go to a new hotel. All other devices then just need to connect to this router SSID so only need to set up one equipment every time you move to a new place.

          Just to be clear I used the GL Inet Opal, so not exactly this particular model. I'm pretty sure this model is a more expensive / featured model so I would assume that this would be as good if not better.

          The unit comes with a small power brick with cable to USBc connection to plug to the back of the unit, so I use that. I'm sure I could also use a generic USB charger but I didn't want to take a chance.

          Set up your network and all your devices connecting to this network while you are still at home, and test by rebroadcasting your own wifi or wired network at home so you get used to changing settings etc.

      • Kaboda on 19/03/2025 - 18:50

        Works well if the hotel wifi speed are shit you plug a phone into the USB port and tether your internet from there. Motorola cheapie that supports Esim is generally good for this and hotspotting on the go.

    • sobriety22 on 19/03/2025 - 17:01

      Not the use case for this device. "Horses for courses" springs to mind. :)

      You seem to be confusing wifi hotspot with travel router, they're two different things

  • pl0nker on 19/03/2025 - 17:13

    Thanks OP, bought. Should do well on our cruise and when travelling in general.

    • BillyG687 on 19/03/2025 - 18:41
      +1

      Just an FYI - most cruise companies ban any sort of networking equipment including these.

      You can try smuggle it on, but most likely you'll be picking it up from the naughty table at the end of the cruise. People report online really mixed results, and sometimes the network config can be pretty aggressive to block these types of devices since some cruise lines sell per device packages.

      • cmoddoo on 19/03/2025 - 19:47

        How would they know?

        • BillyG687 on 19/03/2025 - 20:07

          Copying my other comment from the other one: They also check/x-ray your bags when you get onto the ship. That's how they also stop people bringing on irons/hair straightners etc.

      • meowsers on 19/03/2025 - 23:07

        depends on the cruise line. we've never had any issues. because I need the VPN I will always pack 2 or 3 routers in different suitcases because as a fallback.

        It takes a fair bit of skill to be able to pick these up considering the carry on xrays aren't CT style so the density of the objects are often difficult to make out. (why airports make you pull your laptop out on older XR) the difference is cruise ships generally dont. They are mainly looking for weapons and alcohol. The alcohol is tbh pretty lax as well on port days as we regularly bring back wines etc and no one cares on the ones i've been on at least (as recent as a few months ago).

        In terms of network config the key here is to clone a MAC address of a reputable manufacturer or generate a random one. Sometimes they try to get crafty with vendor IDs. Wireguard was blocked at some point for a while but I generally just do a 443 openVPN as a workaround which is not possible to block at least with their security.

        Just for the doubters: I literally bring a 24" monitor, a router and a full WFH setup with me when I cruise. not a single question from anyone. Just left the router there on the desk. Even got engineering to bring me a screwdriver so i could attach the monitor stand to the monitor because it was a cheap monitor I just throw them out / leave them for the crew after every cruise and buy them in the departure port before the cruise.

        https://i.ibb.co/6RG69w0Y/Screenshot-2025-03-19-at-11-17-07-…

        TLDR; you probably wont have any issues with this.

        • Chazzozz on 20/03/2025 - 07:37

          Genuine question: if you’re on a pleasure cruise why take a full WFH setup? If you need to work when you’re supposed to be relaxing and spending time with family/friends then it seems a waste of money going on a cruise when you could just stay home.

            • Chazzozz on 20/03/2025 - 11:40

              @meowsers: Okay, fair enough. I was actually curious of your motivations - in my own workplace they are actively discouraging staff from taking their laptops and work phones away with them when travelling, trying to reinforce the benefits of disconnecting for a period of time. I'm finding it very interesting to see which ones are actively following the advice and who is not.

    • jimmej on 19/03/2025 - 20:32

    I'm very impressed with this thing.
    Even with my hotel room positioned right next to the ubiquiti AC dish…. I NEED THIS.
    Without having this router in the room with me, it's just TERRIBLE.
    Imho mandatory for anyone who wants to keep a network setup as they travel or become homeless due to no fault of ur own, as it runs off 5v USB.

    • BillyG687 on 19/03/2025 - 18:43

      I've got the SlateAX and I've been super impressed with how well it works and how configurable it is.

  • fookos on 19/03/2025 - 17:50

    Have to Mangos for travel. Is this a major step up? Wider coverage and better speeds I expect?

    It’s a little bigger than it’s yellow sibling though.

    • WhyAmICommenting on 19/03/2025 - 20:00

      Wondering the same. I also have a mango.

      • fookos on 19/03/2025 - 23:11
        +1

        From a couple of comparative reviews the Beryl in this post is a definite step-up in speed and processing for better vpn and overall performance and features.

        That said, for travel it does look a lot bigger than the Mango.

        For simple use as a repeater on trips the Mango is a good proposition - particularly if you’re getting more than one hotel room and need to take two of the little yellow buggers with you. Better VPN performance would be better but you can’t have everything at that size.

        • WhyAmICommenting on 20/03/2025 - 09:39

          Thanks, might stick with it for this trip at least

          I'm pretty sure they can't. They will just see one device at one end

            • meowsers on 19/03/2025 - 23:09

              @BillyG687: Very unlikely they will pick this up. Even less likely that onboard IT will be doing "heat maps" to find it.

              Onboard XR are 1D basically and difficult to distinguish density of objects like this especially if you pack with similar density items.

              • BillyG687 on 20/03/2025 - 11:41

                @meowsers: It's picked up before you board the ship. Never said anything about heat maps - that was someone else.

        • whyisave on 19/03/2025 - 19:52

    It would be even better if it were powered via USB-C. The unit is already quite large and factoring in the size of the power adaptor means even more bag space is taken up.

      • alcadive on 19/03/2025 - 21:57

        The 34mm thickness is what makes it seem bulky imo. For context, I travel with one bag.

    - copy photos from an SD card to an NVME (card reader + nvme usb PD hub)

    Basically, it's my travel photo backup station. I could also set it up to automatically rsync back home to the nas, but, it stuffs up the date modified so it's there only as a plan B

    I bought it last month from their website after waiting for so long and paid $125 …. Is a great little unit. Was about to pull the trigger on the preorder the Slate 7 but I needed before April… anyways, still a great little unit and the fact you can power it from a power bank is a game changer!
    I use it on camping trips, travel, in the car while travelling so kids can watch Disney+ etc. it’s so handy!

    • fookos on 20/03/2025 - 14:56

      Oooohh, Slate 7… I’m keen on a more powerful travel router.

      Will keep using the Mangoes I have for international transit, but when I have the room for a larger and heavier device this new model looks excellent. May be hard to get one for a while. Will know more next month I guess. So, the question remains… grab this Beryl for ~$100 or wait and get the new model at closer to $200…

    I got Beryl the other month when I saw the discount. Was in Perth in December and the hotel had turned down the room Wi-Fi to minimum power so 2m from the desk in my room, hardly one bar. This should help with that.

    Also looking at VPN for travel so we can still access our streaming account. Loving the idea of plugging the hotel TV Ethernet cable into the Beryl for better speed.

    FYI, I received mine, but it did not come with the US, EU, UK power adaptors which were pictured in the Amazon listing under "What's in the box". Probably a minor issue for most, however for me it is something I specifically wanted, I'm not returning the item but i did raise a query with customer support, hopefully they can resolve.
