Firewalla - Firewalla Purple

I have an older Slate and use it as my travel router. It can connect to my FWG with no issues over wireguard. The FWG applies all of the normal security rules to the traffic, just like being at home.  I personally prefer the Slate for travel and would highly recommend it.  On a side note, I have had issues with some places not allowing VPN traffic, including OpenVPN on port 443. So, in a situation like that, the Purple would be better as it can apply all of the proper network security measures on its own.

It depends on your internet and your budget. They are not cheap but are excellent devices. A Firewalla purple is a good entry level.

Take a look at the Firewalla Gold Pro. I have one, plus a Firewalla Gold+, and two Purples. All work great with good software and good support. https://firewalla.com/collections/firewalla-products/products/firewalla-gold-pro

They are both pretty good. Purple has remote access out of the box with alerts and what not. GL.inet requires you to set up a vpn to do that. Some of the top end GL.inets have a bigger WiFi bubble that they create. I would love to find a small travel centric add on for the purple, that had a bigger coverage bubble. Or even a higher tier Firewalla box that could do that. Most hotel stays the purple is perfectly fine for coverage, but every so often we do a rental at the beach or something like that and it’s a bit of a crapshoot for coverage in the areas that you want.

I have a Firewalla purple and it was too expensive. I feel like i should have just bought something like this^

Firewalla all the way. Put the eeros in bridge mode and you'll be super happy.

Firewalla works really well for me, with Eero in bridge mode.
