Pocket-Sized Wi-Fi 6 Travel Router

The GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 Slate AX is a compact wireless router built for travellers and remote workers who need a secure private network on the move. It delivers dual-band Wi-Fi 6 with a combined wireless speed of 1800 Mbps, splitting 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 1200 Mbps on 5 GHz. MU-MIMO and OFDMA let the router serve up to 120 devices simultaneously.

Physical Toggle and OpenWrt Setup

A hardware switch on the case instantly enables or disables AdGuard Home, OpenVPN Client or WireGuard Client without opening a browser interface. The router ships with OpenWrt 21.02 (kernel 4.4.60) pre-installed, so advanced users can install custom packages while beginners can use the standard web UI. VPN client software for OpenVPN and WireGuard is already loaded and compatible with more than 30 service providers.

VPN Throughput and NAS Limits

OpenVPN throughput reaches 500 Mbps and WireGuard reaches 550 Mbps, which is sufficient for streaming and video calls on most hotel or café connections. The USB port accepts an external hard drive for SAMBA or WebDAV file sharing, creating a small network-attached storage pool. Buyers who need multi-gigabit WAN ports or hardware-accelerated encryption beyond the stated VPN speeds should consider larger units.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the Slate AX is delivering the stated 1800 Mbps combined speed after setup?

Check the router's OpenWrt 21.02 interface for real-time client rates; 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 1200 Mbps on 5 GHz confirm the dual-band link is operating at specification.

What comes in the box with the GL-AXT1800 and what must I supply myself?

The router includes a USB port for NAS use with SAMBA or WebDav; you must provide your own external USB hard drive to create the private storage network.

Which VPN protocol should I choose on the Slate AX for the highest throughput?

WireGuard reaches up to 550 Mbps while OpenVPN tops out at 500 Mbps, so select WireGuard when maximum encrypted speed is the priority.
