Overview
Travelers, remote workers and RV owners get a pocket router that logs into hotel or airport Wi-Fi once and shares it as a private network with all their devices. It runs from a USB-C adapter or a power bank.
One login for every device and a private, VPN-capable network make public Wi-Fi safer and simpler. It needs an existing internet source, since it has no cellular connection.
Who it's for
People working from hotels, Airbnbs and RVs will use it every trip. Those who need internet where no Wi-Fi or cable exists need a mobile hotspot instead.
Pros and cons
- Shares public Wi-Fi privately
- Several operating modes
- Phone tethering over USB
- Powered by USB-C or power bank
- No cellular connection
- No OpenWrt support
- Internal antennas limit range
- Speeds depend on source connection
Performance notes
Throughput is capped by the internet source, so a slow hotel connection stays slow, but every device shares it under one login. The newer Wi-Fi standard handles many devices at once more smoothly. Internal antennas keep it compact, suited to a room rather than a whole house.
