Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Performance: Offers dual-band speeds with up to 300 Mbps on 2.4GHz and 867 Mbps on 5GHz, adequately handling both basic and high-bandwidth tasks.
Portability: The router is lightweight and compact, ideal for travel.
Connectivity and Security: Includes two Gigabit LAN and one WAN port for fast connections and supports various VPN services and IPv6, ensuring secure and private internet access.
User Interface: Setting up and using the router is straightforward, thanks to an excellent user interface.
One downside is the power adapter's non-detachable USB cable, which could be more flexible. Overall, the GL.iNet GL-SFT1200 is a reliable choice for travelers looking for a secure and portable internet solution, though it may not stand out in a crowded market.
I've had it work off a hotel's wired LAN connection for the two weeks I was there. Works well off wifi, even had it connected to a Google Mesh network at a home rental for a weekender. It can stay in my locked bag at a cafe, powered by a portable battery (it needs 3A). It passes captive portals through to your device for authentication.
The control panel options are deep. There's the standard stuff you expect, like seeing what devices are connected and being able to manage them. There's a firewall and port forwarding and DMZ. It's an OpenVPN client and can become an OpenVPN server. Same with Wireguard. Can set up VPN routing (e.g., allow certain connections to not use VPN). It runs OpenWRT so you can install its plugins. Attach USB storage and it can serve files (SMB). You can SSH into it (assuming you can reach port 22 from outside). Dynamic DNS so it can be reached by domain name URL. Like I said, way more than what I got it for but glad it's there.
It's got just enough ethernet ports for 2 wired devices, and WiFi depends on the type of usage, but handled multiple streaming devices for me. So could work for solo traveler up to a small family. I love its compact form factor.
Use the Luci admin panel for open-source custom router rom, it's easy, and browse the 1000s of apps one can install, including DNSCrypt and DOH and lots of adblocking. It has its own admin interface too. It's almost like also having a Pihole in the same wifi unit. I'm thinking of tying in a whole series of LAN devices into it not just for travel to have uniform adblocking and encryption throughout. Be sure to make backups as you go along, because as with advanced features, it's possible for errors to arise. It can also be a plug in and go box, without getting into all its features.
The tech support is excellent, with help built in to the admin panels, and documentation on the website. Chat and phone is also available.
5 out of 5 stars, all around. Great price too.
Fantastic router! It's inexpensive, easy to set up and has great performance! A Must Have for this use!
