GL-AXT1800 / Slate AX

> What inspired you to start your selfhosting journey? What's one project you're most proud of so far, and what's the most expensive piece of equipment you've acquired for? My laptop was too loud to keep it on at night. So I moved most services on dedicated hardware. Most expensive was a Slate AX, lol, but that's not part of the permanent infra. > How would winning the unit(s) from this giveaway help you take your setup to the next level? Comet would allow me to manage the monster in the garage in the fortuitous case sshd fails. Flint 3 would just be cool, even if it does look like Batman's router. > Which channels do you most frequently use to learn about or purchase IT equipment? Amazon, it's always Amazon. > Looking ahead, if we were to do another giveaway, what is one product from another brand (e.g., a server, storage device or ANYTHING) that you'd love to see as a prize? A radio-transparent cupboard for all my apartment's network equipment!

I moved from slate ax to beryl 7. Beryl line is better suited for travel UNLESS you need the extra LAN port

I recently purchased a GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 travel from Amazon as a constant business traveler. This thing is a TANK, and it streamlined connecting all the devices I use: phone, laptop, and an Nvidia Shield. Plus, VPN usage is integrated, so you can sail the high seas if you need to. If you can afford a travel router, then don't think twice, I'm now kicking myself I didn't buy one sooner lol

No drops or issues at all.

GL.iNet IMO has the best travel routers. I started with a GL-AR750S-Ext and now GL-AXT1800. Never leave home without it. The 750S is compact enough I keep in my laptop bag all the time for the convenience of connecting all my devices using unknown WiFi. The 1800 as it’s bigger I take when I’m on trips.

Gl I net has a few great options. I personally have the Slate 7 and it’s a more than capable travel router, I choose it over the UniFi even though I have a complete UniFi setup at home.
