TP-Link TL-WR1502X AX1500 WiFi 6 Travel Router, Dual Band VPN Router, WAN/LAN/USB Port,VPN Server and Client,Type-C Power Bank Port,Hotspot/Access Point/Range Extender Suitable for Hotel, Business

If you travel a lot, either with work, or with the family on holiday, this TP-Link TL-WR1502X Portable Router might just save your sanity. Before a family holiday, you can sit at home, with a cup of coffee and connect all the family devices, the phones, laptops, tablets, iPads, Steam Decks, portable printer etc. Then once you get to your destination, switching on the router will connect all the devices to a secure local network, the printer will see the laptop for example. Then all you need do is either plug the router in to the hotel ethernet port, or log in to the router's management page, scan the Wi-Fi networks, find the hotel guest network, connect the router, and viola, all your devices are now connected to the internet via the Portable Router. If you have not used a TP-Link device before, they have very intuitive menu interfaces. The one for the TL-WR1502X is particularly good, and even Muggles will be up and running in minutes. The other tech gobbledygook is handled by the router automatically. There are some really nice extra features offered by the TL-WR1502X. You can set up a router VPN (virtual private network), so if you were in a country that blocks say, Netflix, you can just swing your connection back to your home country, and enjoy all the entertainment accounts you have. You can even connect back in to your home network in your house, if you know what you are doing. So you could be on the far side of the Earth, but your devices all think they are back home. TP-Link also do an app called Tether. This app is very good, and lets you manage all your TP-Link devices, including the TL-WR1502X. You can do everything in Tether, from rebooting the device, to setting up your devices to either the 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz Wi-Fi channels, to maximise performance. You can even tell the router to give priority to the games consoles, if they are active. There are also all the usual parental controls, so internet connection can be time-limited to the children's devices, if you wish. And the beauty is, on your next family holiday, all you need do, is make one connection to the new hotel network/Wi-Fi, and you are up and running again. A good travel router like the TL-WR1502X is pretty much a vital necessity these days, for the travelling business person, or family holiday. Several YouTubers did full performance reviews of the TL-WR1502X. They found the radial signal strength to be good, and the router radiates a strong signal upwards. So, if you are renting a two-storey holiday house, the router is best placed centrally on the ground floor, for best coverage. The final feature, that might earn you some free drinks at the hotel bar, is the router offers a guest network feature. So, if you find yourself befriending the hotel neighbours, and they are not getting on well with the hotel Wi-Fi, you could set them up on a separate guest network from your travel router. The two networks will be completely separate from one another. Just make sure to get a free dinner out of it. Price versus performance versus features, the TL-WR1502X really is a no-brainer. Highly recommended.

Superb little device. I have tested it on my mobile via hotspot and USB tethering and both are flawless. I also tested it piggy backing my home mesh system with no trouble. I added Surfshark VPN and routed a device through it. I tested for leaks and none were evident. Use the TP LINK tether app rather than directly accessing it through the admin IP. It's much easier to configure and monitor. Another great device from TP LINK. I have a TPLINK WiFi 7 mesh system at home. I am a fan.

Bought for travelling. We tend to take the minimum we can. So having the usual power bank for phones and things away from power sockets, and a sellers picture showing this router working off grid, you think yes, seems a good idea. But it won't work on a USB power bank with the 5V outputs. Which is pretty much all power banks. And 5V to 12V USB power converters are no match for the 18W power demand. Probably best for those with big suitcases visiting hotels, you can take the power socket needed. Disappointed with TP-Link, have a lot of their gear and normally it's well thought through.

This brilliant portable travel router is a must-have. I use it with a VPN while traveling for work to give me access to my home network while I'm away. It's lightweight and compact, runs directly from a USB-C cable and works perfectly with phones, laptops, and other devices. The build quality is excellent – it's strong, durable, and compact in size.

It's a useful little router which I'm using to run as a second WiFi network at home which is routed through a wireguard VPN. Pro's: - Very easy to setup - Small size and low power - WiFi range seems acceptable (considering size, power and lack of antennas) - User interface is good and instructions are clear - Cheap Negatives: - Unable to force all traffic through a VPN, each client device needs to be added manually - VPN connection sometimes drops (I don't know if this is the VPN itself or the router) but it refuses to automatically reconnect. It sits saying "reconnecting...." but if I manually disconnect and reconnect it connects straight away - no kill switch for the VPN, which means the VPN can disconnect in the background (and refuse to reconnect) and i'm unware that my traffic is no longer going via VPN unless I manually check my IP address (happening several times per day) It has been flawless as a wifi hotspot/router so if you just want it for that then buy it, but if like me you want it exclusively for the VPN feature then you need something else with more advanced software features.

This is one of the more significant purchases that I have made to assist me whilst travelling. Its abilities to tie all your devices onto one network as you would have at home has simplified things enormously. Its portability especially when connected to a power bank has made camping trips and using devices on guest wifi a breeze. You are also able to install your VPN onto it, so security can be built in and automatic. Initially the option wasn't available, but if you connect it to your home wifi, eventually a firmware update will be offered and it changes the feature set of the router entirely. It is probably the most versatile router I have owned, including my Eero at home. To illustrate how good it is, I arrived at a Holiday Park in Italy where signal was particularly weak. So much so where we were placed you couldn't sign into the network. I moved the router to where the signal was stronger and using the Tether app (the companion app for the device) I signed into the network, I then moved the router back to where I was staying and the router remained connected to the network. As I write I'm connected to the router via 5 devices, two laptops, two iPhones and an Alexa Speaker, all working with satisfactory speeds. It's removed the frustration. The perfect combination would be this router paired with a 20000mah power bank, which potentially will run the power bank for 24 hours rather that the 10-12hrs that my 10000mah power bank is achieving at the moment. I recommend this product without hesitation.

Excellent travel router. Many reviews of this on here are hopeless. This little router does everything advertised. Currently using it away connected to a hotel wifi, running it as a wireguard client, all devices connected to it are using the tunnel (you can configure this in settings). Good range for wifi, nice and small size. Anyone who can't setup this up properly can't read.

It was the best thing I’ve ever seen and used being on a ship

This travel router is awesome. I have been able to hot spot it to my Android phone and play wireless VR through my laptop when I travel with decent performance. Some people have reported disconnection issues. First thing I did when I received the router was to update the firmware and I have had ZERO issues.

was easy to setup downloaded the tether app from tp link to smoothly set it up first , then i went to its admin portal at 192.168.0.1 to set up its advanced settings not available to be edited on the mobile app , set up a firewall blocked a lot of social media addictive websites, connected my router to my own self hosted WireGuard VPN server , and then secured all of my devices at home with it. It feels very premium to hold and very light, and works very well. For now, and mostly using it in hotspot mode, and it’s working perfectly. If you need to secure your network while travelling and going to Coworking Space. Or to set up your own social media firewall to curb your addiction. Or set up parental settings for your different family members tour restrict internet timings. Then this is perfect for you. , I tested out the file server too and while the USB port connection is on USB2 .0, Samba file server protocol and FTP, both work perfectly. However usb 2.0 does restrict its speeds to act as a file server it’s not a big deal for me as I am mostly using it to secure my internet connection across all my devices while travelling and connecting securely to my home network, it performs like a champ with very high speeds 10/10 would recommend

I used Tp link router. Quite impressive on outside door activity. The only thing is the price / speed. Should be more lesser than the actual price. Otherwise the product is excellent

I am using this as a what TP-Link likes to call it as "Multi-Wan" setup, Fibre + 4G dongle, connected to Wifi AP TP-Link Archer BE6500 (Wifi 7), had to also purchase TP-Link XX530v (GPON - Fibre Optic modem) as most of the Indian ISP's send locked down modems, and worst add CGNAT. If the 4G dongle properly worked on xx530v, I wouldnt have purchased this TL-WR1502X. Tp-Link uses microprocessors in the case of Wifi 7 AP is Broadcom BCM6766 (non- 6Ghz), which arent compatible with OpenWrt. So look for other routers. However, not sure what TL-WR1502X uses. But its less powerful. Dont know if its was delibrate, but I am okay for now, as I am more into reliability and easy of use. Unfortunately TL-WR1502X isnt good for VPN server but client, so dont expect it to handle a lot of devices at once. It serves a purpose, and its good at it. Dont use it as your main AP, its a good travel device and offers dual-Wan (with 4G USB Dongle and Fibre) device. I am looking forward for TL-WR3602BE, if its launched, I will rather buy it as my primary travel router.
