I am amazed and impressed by this one. Obvious use: when travelling, use it to provide WLAN over the available hotel Wifi connection or other not that trustworthy connections. Not that obvious but hugely useful: - When abroad. Securing your connection while working and making it appear as being in the country you want. - Making an account work as you would, bypassing region limitations (in combination with your VPNs features). Useful for streaming services with regional restrictions, sharing when not in the same "house", using a bank or country public service that has geo-limitations ... It is really easy to install and setup. It will ask for a new router password in the first setup. My advice: change the default Wifi SSID name and password, too and make the Wlan not public. No point to use a router for securing your life via VPN and leaving these as default. It works with NordVPN (just remember to use as username and password the SERVICE ones, as found in the NordVPN page). It is way better than using your own router's VPN client (in case it provides one), since there are cases where you want to avoid it. Example would be a company PC running company VPN. Then there is no reason to have this on top of the Router's VPN. In such a case, the company PC can go over the normal router internet connection, having the company VPN. But your home PC or smart TV could go over the GL.iNet Wlan, thus getting automatically anonymized and secured. It is also much better than installing VPN clients to each device. Too much of an effort to do and maintain up to current. Plus, there are some devices where there is not even a client for them. It will also help your devices not being overloaded with clients and operations, leaving this to the GL.iNet router. Obvious observation: this is the smallest family member. Its resources as as low as it can be. Meaning, if you want to have many devices coming out of this, as your central VPN, and you intend to watch a lot of streaming services, HD, 4k, if you have special needs that you need to configure, like special triggers of what to be done, when VPN is down, different subnets, special behaviors (even though you can do quite nice basic configurations with this small router), you should look for something more versatile and strong. Especially for NordVPN, you can download their own configuration files or upload and use yours. It is small, it is silent, it looks positively funny (yellow). To reset to factory defaults, just press the button for 10 sec. You can not have it simpler. Only one "negative" i found. It does not come with the power supply (USB charger). Not hard to find one these days, but I expected that there was one with it in the box.

Je l'utilise en access point pour le partage d'un disque usb sur le réseau local c'est parfait. Lecture de films aucune latence. Dans ce mode de configuration il faut changer le firmware car la mémoire est trop faible avec la version 4 mais en version 3 c'est parfait.

I’ve been using the GL.iNet GL-MT300N-V2 (Mango) Mini Router for travel and around the house, and it has become one of the most useful networking gadgets I own. Despite its small size, this little router delivers consistent Wi-Fi performance and a lot of flexibility that bigger routers often don’t offer. ✔ What I liked • Compact and portable: This thing is tiny — perfect for throwing in a backpack, suitcase, or even a pocket. I take it on trips, and it’s made hotel Wi-Fi way more usable by creating my own secure network. • Easy setup: It took only a few minutes to get up and running. The interface is user-friendly, and most features are accessible right from a browser without any complex steps. • Versatile modes: I use it as a travel router, repeater, and Wi-Fi bridge — it adapts to whatever connectivity situation I’m in. Whether I’m sharing a single wired port at a hotel or boosting weak Wi-Fi signals, this little device handles it well. • Security features: It supports VPN (OpenVPN & WireGuard), which makes it great for secure browsing when on public Wi-Fi or untrusted networks — ideal for travel, remote work, or just more privacy at home. • Good performance for size: Not blazing fast like a full-size router, but more than capable for streaming, browsing, and light downloads. Consistent signal and coverage for a device of this footprint. ⚠ Things to consider • Not high-end speed: Being a compact travel router, it isn’t designed for ultra-high-speed connections or heavy 4K streaming across many devices simultaneously. But for personal travel use or small home networks, it’s more than enough. • Limited Ethernet ports: Only one WAN/LAN port means you’ll need a switch if you plan to connect many wired devices — typical for a device this size. ⭐ Final Verdict The GL.iNet Mango Mini Router is a fantastic travel companion and a very flexible networking gadget for everyday use. It’s easy to set up, supports multiple modes, and brings added security with VPN options. For anyone who travels — or wants a compact, secure way to manage Wi-Fi — this little router is a solid pick. ✔ Recommended for travelers, remote workers, and anyone wanting portable Wi-Fi control.

This is very good, very small and works a dream.
