What Beta Tester are Saying

I think I'm in love with the new compact power supply... The Slate7 with the touch screen is a nice addon in the GL.iNet family... the display does make the share of (guest) WiFi much more comfortable, the on/off of different VPN instead of one on/of button is cool, and I can fast ask at the phone for the actual IP...
@LupusE

Screen really useful you can connect, reset and disconnect... I really like design of your travel routers. Especially this one slate7(gl-be3600) for design.
@Mniko

I really have enjoyed using my Slate 7. It is travel friendly (portable size, USB-C power and USB port for tether/storage) and it can handle advanced features like VPNs (both OpenVPN and WireGuard). The touchscreen lets you keep an eye on status and even enable/disable certain features easily.
@CookieP71

This router has been AMAZING this week. Rock solid performance in the different hotels and airports I've been in. In one hotel my room was on the 3rd floor and I had a great signal in the restaurant on the first floor! This one is a winner!
@Aargvark

The Slate 7 is an absolute standout in both aesthetics and performance... Setup was effortless, and the compact form factor is perfect for travel. The performance is exceptional, delivering fast and reliable good range connectivity...
@tarxvf

Buttons feel of good quality and the antennas click into place in 90 degrees and 180 degree positions as desired.No flimsy or poor quality perception during the beta test use everyday and while used for traveling.

Reviews

A compact but incredibly powerful

"A compact but incredibly powerful travel router—Wi‑Fi 7 speeds, stable performance, and flexible settings make it perfect for both home and on‑the‑go use."

Ramos W. (5/5)

Great little powerhouse to bring with you while traveling

"I travel for work, and I've always wondered if there's a better way to manage my devices without relying solely on VPNs and manually configuring each device I bring. With the Slate, I can count on my devices being secured as soon as I connect them to the Internet, whether to the Hotel's Wi-Fi or mobile hotspots, which adds an extra layer of security. The setup is pretty straightforward, with an easy-to-use interface. While I didn't use the touchscreen that much it's nice to have the option"

Jose V. (5/5)

Just perfect

"Clearly a premium product. Setup was extremely easy. Touchscreen works as expected and is a nice touch. Feature set is super versatile including cellular, modem and repeater modes. Comes with the same software as the other routers which has to be the best out of any other router software. Extremely customizeable. Was especially impressed with the charging block, swappable plugs and the US plug is built in by default with the other plug types going on top."

Arseny A. (5/5)

Great compact travel router

"Great travel router. Compact but feature-packed settings. I'm using it in the house right now as my main device, but I'm planning to take it with me in my travels. Signal strength is also great. The touchscreen is very convenient. No complaints at the moment."

J R. (5/5)

Good

"Good"

ZHI Y. (5/5)

Quick to setup, quick to boot

"Awesome piece of tech. Now I am able to use my Chromecast at my relatives or at a jotelcwithout fuzzing around inside a VPN app. Works very well and the UI is intuitive."

Moritz (5/5)

Good router

"I can activate multiple VPN servers at the same time. Every device can be assigned to different locations to fight geographical censorship for Netlix. Your privacy is protected from ISP and public wifi hackers."

Alfred (5/5)

Everything works very well and

"Everything works very well and the setup is very easy. I cancelled the NBN internet at my house. I share the internet from my phone; YouTube is sufficient for me since I use it mainly for general internet usage. The repeater feature works very well for now, and there is no significant loss. At first, I had an issue where the router was interrupting the Wi-Fi network while connecting to the hotspot I was sharing, and I couldn’t connect. Later, after accidentally pressing a button next to the modem, the setup was completed. I believe that button did not have a clear assignment, but an action was triggered anyway. This should either be fixed or clearly documented, as there is no information about it anywhere."

ORKUN A. (5/5)

Good Product

"Easy setup. Haven't used all the features yet. Very happy"

Robinson R. (5/5)

Would buy again!

"Worth every penny. Don't judge it on the size. This thing will run your house/small office without braking a sweat, and provide more with the downloadable software that you want (not that is forced on you!)."

Matt B. (5/5)
