Description

In this episode of Dev Odyssey, I'm reviewing the Beryl AX WiFi 6 VPN router from GL.iNet. I test out its performance, and baseline it against another GL.iNet VPN travel router, the Slate, now discontinued.

I run three test against the Beryl AX:
1. iperf
2. Speedtest
3. SMB / File Sharing

The Beryl AX shows its ability to perform in these areas, as a modern day VPN travel router with WiFi 6, for those that want speed and security on the go. While I mostly cover performance, the newer versions of GL.iNet Admin software enable new features, not often seen in consumer routers, such as:

Split-Tunneling
WAN Failover
Hardware Mode Switch for VPN, Ad Blocking, or Tor networking

Watch the full video to see how the Beryl AX is an evolution in powerful, performant, portable networking!
