Blockbuster card.... vintage!

I actually returned mine… I got a hydro flask sling, it is way more comfortable and universal for left and right carry.

Nice review! Do you think it would fit a kindle or kobo e-reader?

Another superb vid ;)

My apologies for the double upload - _My Bad!_

have you been able to do any speed tests while using this device and compared it to the modem/router provided by the internet service you use at home? also can you tell me if you use a vpn on this router is the user interface quick and easy to make adjustments to the WIFI signal name/password and the geo location?

the opal seems like a good compromise between the mango and the beryl. it's like 40 bucks, usb c charging, 1 gb wan/ 2 gb lan ports, only usb 2.0 A port but good enough in a pinch. AC1200 speeds. I think for most general use cases, this one checks a lot of boxes, and if you feel like you need more, you probably already know what requirements you have going into it.

Can I use 5V/2A power supply?

Love this review! Thank you!!

can you connect a single strap to the opposite side loop and create a sling type situation? if so, how comfortable is it?

4:32 I’m having issues setting mine up with NordVPN. Can you suggest a good tutorial?

What was the brand of folding sunglasses? Looked nice!

i work from home and my work requires me to plugin directly to a router. If i directly plug into this, would they be able to tell if i wasn't at home?

Will this fit an XT 50 with a 35MMF2 lens without taking it off if not, which of the alpaca bags will fit it looking for something minimal and not too bulky

Subbed, loving the bag reviews, too. I am curious, what is the set-up at the other end. Did you just config the Cable Company’s Router?

Thank you for this, precisely the breakdown and validation I was looking for! 🎉!

Oh thank you!! I haven't noticed it had only one orientation and can only be carried on the right shoulder. I feel more comfortable with the strap on the left shoulder (I'm right handed).

$330 is a questionable amount of cash for a solar quartz watch. At least they threw in a sapphire crystal. I wonder what their margins are - that watch probably cost them next to nothing to procure and assemble. I shudder to think what they’re charging for their automatic pieces.

Bro, does an iphone 15 plus fit in there? thanks

Can I use this router to provide wifi to iptv box via ethernet cable?

I have the V1 and my Fuji X100VI just barely fits inside but since the bottom is so narrow it rides more towards the top which is not really comfortable, is the inside main compartment bottom deeper on the V2? I love the V1 because it's super comfortable but I sure would like the get the V2 if my camera will fit better. I noticed you have Fuji but you didn't mention it, and I know my X100VI is smaller, but will your camera fit if you only have the camera in the main compartment? Thanks for the review as well.

I just ordered one too..

Great reviews - lots of people seem to love this bag as one that can fit a macbook pro 16' laptop. Am now tossing up between this and the bellroy via work bag :)

Hey David - great video, thanks. I have an iPad Pro 11inch - any chance this would fit inside, or strictly iPad mini? Cheers

Hi Dave, What was that mini keyboard with the big fat selector know in you intro clip?

I’m currently doing seasonal work and plan on traveling at least for a few years. I have my PC with me, but unfortunately dorm living provides terrible Wi-Fi speeds and I’m looking for something to help with that. I’ll be making a purchase soon based on your recommendation, but I’m caught up on how to use these? Does the product have its own internet connection or would I need to take the SIM from my phone and use it? Thank you to anyone who can answer, it’s the only thing I’m curious about. So ready to play some Halo, D2, and COD again if anyone has input for running those types of games.

I use a Mango router as a repeater for my phone hotspot. GLiNet routers are all good for travel and/or access points and repeaters.

I was delighted to get a travel router for my family and as a network engineer it should be relatively easy to use right ? There are PLENTY of issues with that hardware/software combo and I still can't connect my IOS devices to the 2.4G SSID on my Beryl router.... which is an issue for remote rooms and all .... :( I was very excited at first and I ended up very disappointed.

Mango outdated for this year. Max 95mbps lan cable, 60mbps wifi. Wireguard 20mbps cuz weak cpu.

Hello, thanks for the video who makes this bag?

Missing internel LTE or USB capable of USB. Thus should not be on top lists.......

Exciting stuff. I'm new to travel routers & my work is going to demand travels in the near future. These are quite neat w/ the VPNs built in. Glad to see GL iNet is seeing value in smaller creators. Congrats on the sponsorship.

Great video. I'm a big fan of Alpaka products. Would love a video comparing the Alpaka Vertex to the Alpaka Elements Tech Case please. Thanks for all you do and your consideration.

So let’s say hypothetically speaking: I work in Europe and my company has its own vpn : zscaler. And they don’t allow remote work from outside France. If I use this route and I’m - say in South America. They will not be able to track that I’m not in France. Meaning they will see that I’m connected through my France WiFi. Is this correct ? If not can anyone point me in the right direction ?

Thx for an excellent review. Apparently interwebs agrees this things rips easy as well (along w/other defects). Not sure y maker is not aggressively discounting price. Seems to be many other better built bags at similar or less cost. Tho this bag does look great. Hard pass for me.

Hi I have the Nikon coolpix p950, should i buy the 3L or the 6L?

They also have a slate plus that has the same power as the beryl.

Plastic baggies for EVERYTHING. Then I put the small clear plastic baggies in larger clear plastic baggies.

I would like a travel router mostly used on cruise ships. With the fluctuation of speed and bandwidth limitations being distributed to the cabins, which one would you recommend? Thanks!

Great video! Do you think this could fit a Fujifilm XT5 with a pancake lens? Thanks!

I'm interested in a router to bridge an existing wifi network with a captive login portal (think hotel/airplane/cruise-ship) and then share that 1 paid connection with multiple devices. My concerns are around heat a power draw, which most videos do not address. I'll be placing the router into a backpack and powering it off a USB battery for 12-24 hours at a time. 100Mbps would be more than enough speed for me. Are any of the routers showcased good for that use case? My guess is the Mango draws less power (hopefully generating less heat) than the others and I don't mind the USB micro. Thanks!

Beryl AX doesn't support EAP protocol. So you will not be able to connect it in many hotels that uses this protocol. I have one Beryl AX and had a bad experience in my first use. The hotel I tried to use, was EAP protocol and I was unsuccessful to connect. The SSID doesn't even appear in Beryl AX menu when it's a EAP WIFI/Network.

Great video, really answered a lot of the questions I had about this bag.

What do you think about this model? GL.iNet GL-E750V2 (MUDI) 4G LTE

Can someone please tell me if I need to install any software? I have a work laptop for which I do not have admin right but the laptop is no longer connecting to WiFi and I am not allowed to use my phone as hotspot - it’s disabled. Many thanks

I have bought and sold many sling bags in the past for my travel vacation sightseeing trips. And the two things that I absolutely want and need are the back zipper pocket to keep my passport safely and an external water bottle mesh pocket. A passport is still needed in lot of countries to enter in different tourist attractions, especially when you have pre booked the entrance tickets. The rest I can work with whatever space it has in the middle and front pocket. And another nice to have feature is the slim profile that hugs my body and does not look bulky. And I am still looking for a compact sling bag that has these two features that I can wear all day during my trips. Any suggestions?

You should add @Threads as an option for those of us who WILL NOT USE X.

What is theres no free wifi around? Is there other ways it can provide Internet through like my ISP or something?

Ok so my main take away here is that your wife is pretty cool! Seriously though - great review! Short and covers all the important points.
