Easy to use, strong WiFi signal

Sorry, doesn't support multiple simultaneous VPN connections. The interface is pretty basic, but it's still a good choice.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • I'm worried

Technically excellent product

So far, so good. I didn't rate it perfect for two reasons. 1) No US tech support or 7/24 as I am in the Eastern Time Zone. When I have a problem, waiting for Hong Kong to "wake up” can be difficult. Problems still don't matter much and I can, but what if I fall? Also, it's a little "weak" in some things, such as the ability to change the configuration file for an open VPN. I don't need to edit the configuration file after it's created to change the IP address to a fully qualified domain name. I

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Largely ok, but...

Good product! for router

After a problem with the Convexa-B I returned, I decided to buy this product. If you update the firmware, Adguard will be added, which is very convenient for the router. I would recommend clearing the cache in your browser when updating the firmware. Do not save settings or install packages to avoid incompatibility issues you may have encountered when purchasing Convexa-B. By default settings are saved and packages are installed, you need to change this and install new firmware on the device…

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Neutral

I've been using OpenWRT for many years, I love software and hardware freedom. And GL.iNet devices are perfect for playing with OpenWRT.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Lots of things

Great little modern router with one big flaw.

The router is fantastic. That. It does what your old router can't. It is originally OpenWRT. But therein lies the catch. The OpenWRT firmware supporting this device is STILL stuck on Chaos Calmer/15.xx with the latest updates as of July 21st. Even the firmware of my old Gli-net 150 mini is newer than this one. It can of course be updated, but the router positions itself as OpenWRT if it is not several versions behind the latest firmware version. This causes other problems like available…

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • I will add later

Hide your IP address

Works very well with Nordvpn. The customer service is really superficial, but once you get to know the interface, it becomes user-friendly.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Slightly crumpled
