what's going on youtube today we're

taking a look at a very cool product

from gli net and their travel routers

have been in my bag ever since i first

laid eyes on them it's a great way to

mask your location it's a great way to

work remotely without your boss knowing

where you are that's definitely a plus

these days maybe you're on an island

somewhere and you want to pretend like

you're back in the states or no matter

where you want to pretend you are the

travel route is going to let you do that

if you're just roaming the country and

you're doing those airbnbs or using

those free wi-fi access points your

information could be at risk i actually

got my information hacked when i was

using airbnb wi-fi so you just never

know who's monitoring that traffic this

is a great way to keep it protected

great way to encrypt all of your data

thanks to the vpn protocols wireguard

supported openvpn supported it's gonna

block ads and do a whole bunch more

let's take a look at the new wi-fi 6

wireless travel router from gla

this is gli net's latest travel router

and if you travel a lot you definitely

don't want to use open wi-fi even if

you're at that hotel you never know

who's who's monitoring that traffic

there could be someone behind the scenes

trying to steal all your information and

it's a great way again to mask your

location working remotely from an island

somewhere is much better than working in

new york city so this is going to let

you kind of switch out your location if

you want to wi-fi 6 means that you're

going to have fast wi-fi 6-speeds with

compatible devices it is running open

wrt for the os 3 gigabit lan ports usb 3

port encryption again thanks to thanks

to openvpn and thanks to wireguard and

thanks to tor and you also get ipv6 and

ad guard home which is going to block

all those annoying ads on the internet

and that's constantly updated so that's

a great addition to these wi-fi six

travel routers inside you get a little

documentation as usual

and let's take a look at what the new

wi-fi six router looks like

definitely really really cool now it is

a little bit larger than the other

editions so we started out with the

original slate so it's definitely a

little bit bigger than that and this is

barrel it's a tiny bit bigger than

barrel but again this is wi-fi six so

you're gonna get a lot a lot faster

speeds with this on the side of the

router you also have a micro sd card

slot capable of up to 512 gigabytes of

storage so it's perfect for shared drive

if you wanted to put that onto the slate

router on the back powered by usbc of

course here's your usb 3 port so you can

connect the usb modem to this if you

wanted to you can also use this to add a

pen drive for attached storage three

gigabit lan ports one can be used as a

wan so if you want to hardwire this you

can can also be used as a repeater this

all sounds a little bit a little bit too

complicated i'm going to show you how to

do it no worries about that

and then you have your configurable

switch as well as your power button and

reset button right there it's going to

be a nice led logo on the front i'm sure

about that but let's see what else we

get inside here flat ethernet cable

and here's your power for usbc but

thanks to usbc of things just go ahead

and connect the usbc with a power bank

or even with your even with your phone's

charger and you'll be able to charge

this up without any issue logging into

the admin control panel for the new

slate router ax this is what you're

going to see so right on the left you're

going to see how you're actually

connected right now i'm using it in

repeater mode so you can see that right

here but you can plug in that ethernet

cable and use it that way you can also

tether your mobile device's connection

or use a usb cellular modem to connect

to the slate router and you also get to

see your shields of protection here so i

do have ad guard home running i also

have my vpn shield of protection so my

vpn is active i did not activate ipv6

but if you do you'll see that lit up

right over here and then on the bottom

you'll see all of your

all of your ssids for your two main

networks as well as your two guest

networks as well so i like the fact that

we have a main network as well as a

guest network how many wireless lan

clients you have and how many lan

clients scrolling down this is where

you'll be able to see what network

you're actually rebroadcasting what

network you're connected to and you can

switch networks very easily just

clicking on switch network and then it's

going to scan for all available wi-fi

networks around you once you find the

one that you want to connect to just

click on it enter in the password enter

in those credentials and then you just

click connect and you're going to start

repeating that network right away

perfect for starbucks perfect for the

hotel motel holiday inn it's just

overall a great product and it's very

easily navigatable now clicking on

wireless this where you configure your

wi-fi networks for both your main and

your guest networks so very

self-explanatory there under clients

you'll see how many clients you have

connected you can also block them so if

you don't want them to access the

internet you can block them and you can

also limit their speed if you want to so

perfect for co-working perfect for

sharing your internet but not really

sharing it you can just limit what their

upload and download speed is going to be

you do have automatic updates and gli

net is usually really good with their

firmware updates so expect quite a few

when you buy one of their products

under firewall you can enable port

forwards you can open ports and you can

have a dmz host as well so you do have a

lot of configurable actions on the

travel router as plug and play as you

want or as advanced as you want as well

now the vpn tab is where you're going to

spend most of your time 100 for sure so

taking a look at the vpn dashboard which

is new this year with the slate ax you

get to see everything in one place so i

definitely like the way that they've

done this you'll see your open vpn

connections as well as your wire guard

connections which i'm actually connected

to right now and if you want to switch

them click on that and it's going to

show you all of your available

connections here so this is just

something really cool and and i like

what they've done they've just made it a

little bit more modern and the same goes

with the server so you can have a server

and a client running at the same time

when it comes to speed on the slate ax

let's just do a quick quick baseline for

our speed test now this is just

connected to my isp directly this is

going to give us a baseline of what my

speed should be so let's kind of take a

look at that we're maxing out a little

bit over 200 megabits a second 230 so

it's climbing just a little bit now keep

in mind wire guard is going to give you

a maximum of 550 megabits down open vpn

is about 120 so that's why i recommend

torguard because they do have a very

fast wire guard server so if you don't

yet have one once again use code jabber

tech save yourself 50 off for life but

during our speed test it actually sped

up to about 300 megabits down

that's something really impressive so

now what we're going to do is connect

over to this slate ax and then do a

speed test with wire guard and then i'll

do a speed test with openvpn even though

we should max out at about 120. we take

a look at our speeds and do one more as

we talk about it 225 megabits down so it

is usual to lose a little bit when you

when you use a device in repeater mode

it's just an extra extra hop

second speed test i got 240.

i've connected over to openvpn and once

again

i have masked my location so now any

device that's connected is going to show

me being in las vegas nevada perfect

perfect solution for remote work or any

type of any type of masking location so

let's go ahead and click on a speed test

las vegas is a little bit far from new

york at the moment but let's see what

type of speeds we're going to get here

and keep in mind i did max out about

300. so openvpn i'm getting about let's

call it 40 megabits down when this is

completed so once again guys i really

recommend wireguard it's just a faster

protocol and it's just overall something

something that i would recommend but in

terms of speed that one you can expect a

maximum of 120 for openvpn and a maximum

of 550 for wireguard so i'm just going

to switch back over to wireguard

now i also do have it set up where i can

block non-vpn traffic now i think that's

basically the kill switch so you can

enable that if you want to and you can

have the gl net services not to use the

vpn so if you want to connect remotely

with their good cloud service that's a

good option to check now that we've gone

over the vpn speeds to add your own your

own configuration file they do have nord

as an option already built in and i do

have some coupons down there to save you

guys a little bit of coin with nord as

well i like torguard i've been using

them for about four years so that's

really what i recommend so you get both

openvpn and you also get wireguard as

well and you can also choose from

streaming ips or residential ip if you

want a static ip address while using a

vpn they have those options and you can

also save 50 off for life if you use

code jabber tech so for only about 4.99

a month you can get a vpn service not

really that bad

but what i like about it is it's also

very easy to get configuration files

thanks to their configuration tool all

you have to do is choose either openvpn

or wireguard and then select on what

server you want to connect to so maybe

you want to connect to miami and you can

leave all of this in its default unless

you want to switch over you can switch

over whatever you want but then just

click on generate config it's going to

download it for you right away and then

just go back to the gla net open vpn

client or your wire guard client

configuration click on new group so i'm

going to call this one miami

and then find that file that we just

downloaded enter in your username and

password and you're all set so it

couldn't be any easier thanks to having

that tour guard configuration tool and

thanks to gli net for making it really

simple to add your wireguard client or

to add your openvpn client so that's

basically all you have to do guys and to

set up a server it's a one-click

solution as well click on start and

you're gonna start your your wireguard

server very very simply so this is your

vpn dashboard probably the most place

you're gonna spend the most amount of

time when you buy one of these routers

again you can use it without a vpn so if

you just wanted to use this as a

repeater if you just wanted to use your

own your own isp you don't have to use a

vpn

now going down to applications just a

few things i do want to show you you do

have some plug-ins here so you can go in

and you can download a plug-in if you

want to quite honestly i've never

downloaded any extra plug-ins they they

pretty much give you everything that you

need you also have the option for

dynamic dns and then good cloud is their

remote access so you can access some of

these settings remotely if you wanted to

leaving this in your home office and

then connecting remotely to see who's

connected limit their speed etc etc you

can go ahead and do that with their good

cloud service but at guard home is is

one of the best features and thankfully

it is installed right out of the box at

guard home is going to block basically

everything that's blockable on the web

you can go ahead and block it can also

block malware and phishing sites and you

can block adult websites if you guys

want to

but what i like about it is you can just

end there or you can go in and you can

add your own block list if you want to

you can choose from the list and they do

offer quite a number of lists here so if

you wanted to really get in and block

what you want to block you can go ahead

and do that and you can also add your

own custom list as well and there's a

whitelist feature but you can allow

certain websites if you notice they're

being blocked you can add it right there

there's a lot of settings from within ad

guard home as well just take your time

with it figure it out and you're going

to be surfing faster in no time thanks

to blocking all of those annoying ads

you also have that usb port that can be

used for network storage and you can

have shared folders and you can create

users to access those files as well so

perfect for that co-working type of

environment if you want everyone to be

able to access a certain folder a

certain file so you can all work on it

you can go ahead and enable network

storage if you want to the toggle button

setting is that little button on the

side of the router and it basically just

allows you to turn on or off blocking

ads with ad guard home or activate your

vpn service all by just toggling that

switch so you don't have to log into the

router to do so that's just kind of like

a

a quick way to go ahead and activate

certain things that you want to activate

and that's basically it when it comes to

the settings that's everything that you

guys need to know again says plug and

play as you want or as advanced as you

want it to be this has been a look at

gli net's latest offering their slate ax

travel router and as someone who uses a

lot of open wi-fi and someone who uses a

lot of airbnb wi-fi and as someone who

definitely doesn't want to pay for

anything when i go to a hotel this has

been my perfect travel buddy if you're

looking to create your own secure

network if you're looking to create your

own private network within a network

look no further than gla net's travel

router it's a great addition to anyone's

travel bag and it's something i could

recommend if you have any questions

about it let me know down in the

comments below they also do sell a nice

travel bag so you can always keep your

slate router protected keep all your

peripherals your cables and whatnot

right in the little pouch right there i

always appreciate you guys watching
