Review: Works like a charm, even with the hotel splash pages. get the firmware update going and watch for open ports and attack surfaces. I used cable on the outside and WLAN on the inside. Work like a charm. Maybe a weekly reset is needed, but hey, it packs a punch, fast, easy, runs.
Review: Its really small. Easy to use. The range is great as well. We have a 90 foot garden and signal went to the bottom of the garden and still got 20 meg speed. normally I get nothing. Crazy. The UI is great and it updated to the latest firmware and restarted fine, and thats without having to download the firmware and stick it on a USB drive. If I had paid double for this I would till very be happy with it. It also acts as a repeater as well. proper amazing for £30. and it runs from a micro usb cable. Got it powered from an always on USB port on a gaming rig then through powerlines to the router at the other side of the house.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this device take wifi input (not ethernet / cat 6) and convert it to a ethernet output (cat 6)?**
A: Yes, you could setup like this:
WiFi--->GL-AR300M16-Ext---(ethernet cable)--->Your devices

**Q: Can I change one antenna to a directional antenna and use in repeater mode?**
A: You could change the antenna, the antenna is uFL to RP-SMA-Male.

**Q: If I connect an external antenna do I have to have something connected to both antenna ports and if so do they have to match or can I leave one empty?**
A: Coverage will likely be better with two similar antennas connected. One antenna connected would not, most likely, cause any circuit failures. GL.iNet has indicated to me that dissimilar antennas is acceptable. In my case I tried a WiFi yagi on one antenna port (supplied antenna on the other) but it did not improve signal strength to my internet source in my particular situation.  I would suggest you give it a try and see if it works for you.

**Q: How fast does it boot up from power off to connection?**
A: It takes around 1 min.

*by M***8 on 26 October 2022*

I bought two of them, one to place a wireguard server at home and the second one to use as wireguard client and travel with it. It was very easy to setup, the interface is great and easy to understand. I am not too experienced in networks (but still a little) and I had no difficulty doing these things work as I intended. So I can connect from anywhere with my home IP, which is great. It's tiny and easy to carry around. Usb and ethernet cables are provided. What else to ask?
