At first, I was a little overwhelmed trying to get this travel router to repeat WiFi from my phone while on a cruise. I had to wait until we had real service to look up some tutorials, but once I got it working, it performed flawlessly! The connection was stable, and it made staying connected so much easier. I also love that it looks like a portable charger, so it doesn’t get flagged on the ship. I put some stickers over the logos to keep it undercover and even named the WiFi after our ship so it blended in. Definitely a must-have for travelers who need reliable internet access!

I wanted to like this router. The fact that it runs OpenWRT and provide a lot of options were huge bonuses for me. It made it easy to, say, spoof an IMEI so I could get free cellular hotspot from my free cell line. The ability to mutl-WAN via wifi, ethernet, and cellular were also huge. The built-in VPN and Adguard support were a nice bonus. The big problem was that this modem only supports LTE. 5G support would have been nice. GL.iNet makes 5G routers but only for RV. They recently refreshed The Mudi but only for eSIM support. Why not throw a 5G modem in? The wifi on this thing is also quite poor. I get better wireless speed from my LTE-only iPhone XS max over hotspot with the same SIM card. Strangely, a lot of the times, the upload speed is higher than the download speed. This is true regardless of whether the Mudi is using cellular or even ethernet. The ethernet is another issue. I have gigabit internet. I don't expect Mudi to be pulling gigabit speed but like it's like 20mbps down at best over wifi. I get 200+ mbps with my old Airport Extreme on wireless AC. I have also found the wireless connection to be somewhat unstable from time to time too. Connecting to the Mudi via the app or even the browser can be hit or miss, sometime it just doesn't load.Overall, this could be a compelling package if GL.iNet improves on the WiFi performance and puts a better 5G-compatible chip (with mmWave support, please). Please also integrate an ethernet port into the router instead of having me to attach a dongle and please make it at least gigabit, 100mbps in this day and age is way outdated.

Absolutely awesome for the price offered. So far has done everything it claims to be able to do. Few things different than other GLinet options as far as luci advanced menu - wish it had similar luci options to the Opal model but each model has its own quirks and modifications specifically for the model/software/hardware functionality. All in all it seems good 4.5 star. It is slower to connect to cellular and bootup is also a little slow, after boot from Off it has a standby mode that allows battery to be saved when not in use without the boot up wait again.

I really like the GL.iNet MUDI (GL-E750V2). It’s like a Swiss Army knife for Wi-Fi—OpenWrt, VPN support, a chunky battery, and it even doubles as a power bank. Basically, it’s the tech-savvy travel companion I never knew I needed.That said, sometimes it just decides it doesn’t want to connect to hotel Wi-Fi—like it's protesting the quality of the complimentary breakfast. A little fiddling usually gets it back on track, but expect the occasional “why won’t you just work” moment.Battery life is great, and using it as a backup power brick is a nice bonus. It’s not perfect, but it’s powerful, versatile, and has earned a permanent spot in my travel bag.9.5/10 — would recommend to fellow road warriors and Wi-Fi control freaks.

An excellent router and modem. My SIM card didn’t work at first, but I read the instructions and entered the correct APN and voila, it works like a charm. I love the WireGuard vpn feature.

UPDATE 10/22:Saw this was on sale and decided to give it another go to see if it was improved at all, and also tried playing with some additional settings. In the end, it was still very slow. Maximum sustained speeds of around 1.3mbit with Wireguard turned on. There's a lot of variability in testing, but I made sure to test using the same Wireguard endpoint, with the same destination speed test server. I also tried modifying the TTL to 65, 64 and 128 from the admin panel and this didn't really make a difference. Same exact SIM card, when put into my tablet with 4G LTE would result in 200mbit down and 50mbit up. Not sure why this router is so slow.OLD REVIEW:Popped in a T-Mobile SIM card, and with literally line of sight to a T-Mobile tower less than 50ft away, got max speeds of around 10mbit. Popped the SIM card back into my tablet and got 200mbit on LTE.Didn't bother trying WireGuard or OpenVPN because those will be even slower when turned on and speeds will be highly be dependant on your particular VPN server and VPN service you choose.The display is very dark and you will struggle to read the display when outdoors. Indoors, the brightness is just adequate.

Great, carefully thought of product. Only working LTE router with OpenVPN and Wireguard functionality. Even has a SD card so that I can put a 1TB Micro SD and make it a NAS on the go. I travel a lot and I need VPN to my office when I do. This is a excellent choice for me. I cannot wait until a compact travel 5G router to be available. Hopefully they will make one soon.

Ich liebe diesen Hotspot, großer Akku für viel Stunden Laufzeit, Konfiguration sehr mächtig und umfangreich für erfahrene Nutzer, aber auch Anfänger werden mit der schönen WebUI oder nativer App ohne Kontenzwang zurecht kommen.Ich nutze es als VPN Gateway und als Hotspot für mich und meine Freunde für Outdoor Projekte, eine SSID ist für einen Hotspot und eine private SSID tunnelt mich ins Heimnetz via Wireguard.Performance ist gut, ein Kritikpunkt ist die Wärmeentwicklung, am besten offen hinplatzieren wird echt heiß auf Dauer im Rucksack.Ich würde das Teil nicht mehr missen wollen, es sind soviele Features möglich und macht das Unterwegs sein sicher und flexibel für Datenschutz und vieles mehr.

it’s pretty slow to start up, the proprietary adaptor for ethernet is annoying, even set up from an iphone hotspot can take a bit of work to get it going buy having the vpn and storage is pretty handydesign wise it’s slippery as hell and will get scratched up a rubber base or rubber feet would really perfect an already great product5 stars cos it’s better than the nighthawk m1 i replaced it with and isn’t obscenely expensive

This is a great all in one product. It works for 8 hours. But 8 hours is really 9am to 5pm. If I was traveling, I need a few more hours on battery. And its charging speed is 9w which takes a bit to charge.

This is a very nice travel LTE router with a great settings portal. I was able to get both openvpn and wireguard working with very little effort. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get reliable service with my provider, Visible. It’s somewhat expected, but I hoped I could work around some of their controls to get an inexpensive high speed hotspot data plan. I’m stuck with a dedicated Verizon plan at twice the monthly price and I’m limited to using Verizon certified hardware.This is definitely a great LTE router if your data plan provider supports the hardware. It’s certainly fast when the plan works.
