I bought this and another GL.iNet router to test in hotels with closed portals (where you put your room number or other credentials on enter a closed website). to connect to the internet). First let me say that I like this device. After a bit of testing at home, I was able to connect it to a USB power bank, register it, set it up as a standalone hotspot to quickly and easily expand my home network. After searching for a minute, I pressed the tiny reset button and was able to factory reset it. At a large hotel in Kansas City, I was able to connect it to the hotel's WiFi and get the hotspot working. I was able to connect to the hotel wifi with my laptop and access the capture portal. I entered the conquered portal with no problems. After that, any device I connected to the microrouter could access the internet. Success! But then the problems started. After about 30 minutes, the microrouter hotspot disappeared for 5 minutes and then reappeared. In this case, the connected devices have been disconnected from the internet. When he came back I was able to reconnect them to the internet. This script repeated itself about every 30 minutes. Obviously unacceptable. I was able to connect another GL.iNet router (GL.iNet GL-MT300N-V2 Mini Travel Router) using the same procedure and it was stable - no disconnects. Unfortunately the Microrouter is back. I can only assume that this is not normal and that it was an individual failure. But since the cheaper GL-MT300N-V2 worked, I keep it to myself. Note: I've tried other small travel routers with authorized portals and they didn't work (TP-Link TL-WR702N and ZyXEK MWR102 - but it's been a long time).
