## Description

Buy

Review: Decent little router - Works as advertised. The UI is clean and simple to use. Caps at around 500mbps via wireguard
Review: Excellent bit of kit - This is essentially a single board Linux computer running version of OpenWrt, plus GL.iNet's web interface. I hadn't heard of GL.iNet until I bought a "travel router" made by them. I was away for a month and the travel router worked perfectly. I was so delighted that, after I got back, I bought this upgraded version to use in my home. The attractive features of this router include that it's compact, very reliable, has all the settings features you'll ever need in a router (e.g. home DNS with static IPs and hostname assignment), with Ethernet and WiFi6 (802.11ax) connectivity. And it works perfectly as a bridge to my Zyxel outside LTE(4G) router/antenna that I need to use in my rural location - similar to how the travel router provided a secure bridge to hotel WiFi. The only downside is that WiFi coverage throughout my house has diminished just a tad. Reception in a certain part of my house went from unreliable to none at all. I don't think the GL.iNet WiFi is weak, more that my old router signal was unusually strong. Since depending on "unusual" is never a great idea I solved the problem by installing a TP.Link powerline range extender to fill in my "not spot", which works perfectly - home network perfection! Btw TP.Link recently released a version that does WiFi6 (802.11ax): https://www.desertcart.co.uk/dp/B0C9F23VYJ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: When using abroad, can i have it auto-disconnect if the vpn fails? i had nord drop on laptop b4 and show my location. can this stop that happening?thx**
A: I have just checke din the settings and there is a switch "Block Non-VPN Traffic".
The description is: "If this option is enabled, all traffic from client devices trying to be sent out of the VPN tunnel will be blocked, which will effectively prevent VPN leaks due to client DNS settings, dropped VPN connections, client apps requesting by IP, etc."

I think this is a YES to your answer, isn't it?

**Q: Can it be powered by laptop usb port or a powerbank? not every place has a power socket to be used.**
A: I have just tested this with my Mophie JuicePack and I can confirm that it works (don't know how long though as I only did a short test). I suspect that a laptop with a USB 3 port would also work. If I get chance I'll plug it into my media box USB port later and report back (if that's possible here).

**Q: Does this have a sim slot**
A: Dear customer,

The GL-AXT1800 router is not equipped with a SIM card slot. However, you can connect it to the internet by using a cellular-enabled USB modem into the router's USB port. 
For additional information, we kindly suggest clicking on the docs provided below to access further details.

We hope the above is useful to you. Thank you. 

Sincerely,
GL.iNet

**Q: Hi Is this compatible with expressvpn? not listed as a compatible router on their site and firmware download is not available- are instructions given?**
A: Hi, I have tested this with every possible VPN. Several VPN have issues. ExpressVPN: You configure it manually by loading a WireGuard profile. Router support for this VPN is no good (very slow) and does not unblock UK’s Channel 5. SmartDNS requires changing region of Apple TV or Smart TV for MediaStreamer to work. I recommend WeVPN (WireGuard) or NordVPN (OpenVPN only) for this router.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent little router

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant, I want more of them!
*by J***E on 17 January 2026*

I absolutely love this thing. It's so seamless and easy to use. I use it daily for VPN use and even when I want to do something network wise that's a little "funky", I've found it easy to setup in the UI, and I'm an idiot. The only thing I'd complain about is that GL.iNet haven't found a way to make it auto switch between VPNs if one goes down. I do believe they're working on it, I sort of understand why this is hard to detect, as all the router can tell is it has connected or not.
