The GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 travel router I bought a year ago is on sale today for 38% off. If you’ve been on the fence, get this now.

Summary: check into a hotel and connect this, instead of your phone, to the paid WiFi instead. Then connect your phone, laptop, Switch, whatever to the router’s WiFi. Only pay for the one device, have your own firewall in place, and route everything through your own VPN if you want (we watched American Netflix from Germany).

I’ll never travel without one again.
