Is it for you?

A pocket-sized Wi-Fi 6 (AX3000) OpenWrt travel router from GL.iNet with a 2.5G multi-gigabit WAN port, pre-installed OpenVPN and WireGuard, and a USB 3.0 port for external storage, aimed at frequent travelers and small home networks.

Choose it if these matter

2.5G multi-gigabit WAN port, unusual at this size, lets it keep up with fast hotel, hotspot or fiber connections
Maker-quoted WireGuard throughput of up to 300Mbps is fast enough to run a VPN full-time without gutting a gigabit line
Pre-installed OpenWrt firmware with 30+ VPN services, AdGuard Home and encrypted DNS out of the box, no flashing required
Pocket-sized at 120 x 83 x 34mm and 196g with retractable antennas, so it packs flat in a bag

Skip it if these rule it out

Only one LAN port (gigabit), so wired expansion is minimal
Wi-Fi 6 rather than Wi-Fi 6E or 7, and no tri-band radio
120V-free travel means carrying its 5V/3A USB-C adapter or a suitable USB-C power source

Good for: Home office · Budget · Apartments
