Benefits
This router emphasizes uninterrupted connectivity through multi-WAN support. You can combine Ethernet, cellular, repeater, and tethering connections, then set load balancing or failover priorities to keep critical services online. VPN tunneling comes ready to use, letting you secure connections on public Wi-Fi and access remote resources with up to 150 Mbps via OpenVPN and up to 300 Mbps via WireGuard according to manufacturer tests. One limitation to note is that real world speeds will depend on carrier coverage and local conditions.
Usage tips
It makes sense if you travel in an RV, work from rural areas, or need a stable fallback for home internet. Install the detachable antennas for better cellular reception, configure dual-SIM failover to prefer the stronger network, and enable WireGuard when you want higher VPN throughput. For heavier customization, use the OpenWrt based firmware to add plug-ins and tailor routing rules to your setup.
