I am using this router to provide Nord VPN access. It is connected to the main ISP router so devices can either have a VPN or non-VPN connection depending on what their function is.
It was extremely easy to set-up. The small wi-fi aerials give a strong enough signal for all the rooms in my house with thick stone walls.
I can change the settings to access Amazon Fire, Sky Go and BBC iPlayer, but not Channel4. The online help is geared towards using the Nord VPN app, not this device. If you are connecting the VPN back to the UK, the only option is London based servers.
The online help via Facebook Messenger is responsive, very helpful and not a bot.
The router software is a bit flaky – such as not doing a full factory reset, not being able to restart, only one of the two access points showing, the VPN client software not starting, not being able to switch back to DHCP from static address etc.
Despite the issues, I actually like the device and recommend it – just be prepared to set it up.

This Travel/Home Router is an amazing piece of kit, better far beyond what I have with my Mango which was impressive in itself. Speeds, versatility and ease of use are massively improved, far better than what I imagined befoere purchase. I expected an improvement but Wow. I am now getting speeds in triple figures using wireguard. The secure dns feature is amazingly simple. Buy it, you will not regret it!

I wanted a solution to easily connect back to my home and the vpn feature with Wireguard does that so easily.
I tried WiFi tethering works with out any issue, stable connect.
Ethernet, just works no hassle.
Mobile phone tethering via USB is a miss. I am using android and I don’t know could be android stability. But never got this to work correctly.
Mobile tethering via dongle. I will look into this in the future and update as needed.
So far so good, it has a feature to prevent dns leaks. Vpn is very fast.

For a travel router with VPN connectivity options it works well but there is one stupid restriction that means I will be returning it as not fit for purpose.
The WiFi channels (in particular 5Ghz) are limited to only those that China permits. This means that the majority are blocked and it the access point you are trying to connect to is using those channels you cannot get it to connect on 5Ghz. No amount of configuring including SSH to edit the wireless config will fix this. Despite setting it to use US or GB or any other country it ignores these and only provides and uses the Chinese channels. Makes you wonder what else it is doing without telling you.
