The rechargeable battery can keep you going for up to 24 hours before you need to charge it, and in a pinch you can also use some of that capacity to charge your smartphone or other mobile devices. A large 2.4-inch colour LCD screen also ensures that you can keep track of the router's status and how much data you're using. Just plug a normal internet connection into the Ethernet port, and you can share access from it to your Wi-Fi devices.

It’s not just about LTE, though-the MR1100 works as a traditional portable router too. It's also the first mobile hotspot to support Gigabit LTE, with 4X4 MIMO and four-band Carrier Aggregation, so it's capable of providing internet speeds that can rival your home broadband connection. This means you'll be able to connect to its Wi-Fi network and get online even when there's no other Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection around. With support for up to 20 simultaneous devices, Netgear’s Nighthawk MR1100 can easily handle your whole family or project team, and unlike most travel routers on this list, the one works as a 4G LTE mobile hotspot too. While it’s not the most affordable option on our list, it’s well worth the splurge if you need to get several devices onto the internet from just about anywhere at blazing fast speeds.
Wireless Spec: 802.11ac | Security: WPA2 | Standard/Speed: AC750 | Bands: Dual-band | MU-MIMO: No | Beamforming: No | Wired Ports: 1 The only real downside is that the port layout can be a bit awkward, since the USB and microUSB power ports are on the opposite side from the Ethernet port. It’s also really versatile, since it can be not only be used as a router or access point to create a wireless network, but also as a range extender, private Wi-FI hotspot or even as a bridge to connect a wired device to a Wi-Fi network by using its built-in Ethernet port in the opposite direction.Ī built-in USB port lets you share files and media from a removable USB storage device, and it can also provide up to 2A of passthrough power to charge your smartphone or tablet. Measuring 2.64 x 2.91 x 0.9 inches and weighing in at only 8 ounces, it's small enough to carry in a pocket, briefcase, or backpack, so you’ll be ready to set up your own bubble of Wi-Fi pretty much anywhere you go.įor such a small device, the TL-WR902AC offers impressive dual-band Wi-Fi performance. At work we average about 10 per client, but frequently have many people streaming video for calls.TP-Link's TL-WR902AC is one of the fastest travel routers that we've seen, which is especially impressive at this size and price. I might go out with a few AP's do some tests and stream some videos(or similar expected bandwidth usage) and see how you fare.
Wireless is always a fun one due to physics and radios being involved. Luckily the unifi AP's are affordable so you can scale to meet needs, but you should expect about 10 devices per AP if heavy usage is a concern(or at least this has been my experience). One thing I'd like to mention with the unifi AP's is that you'll want to run the controller software(or if this is an ongoing arangement for support get them a cloud key) as that will do the firmware updates on the AP's and give you the abillity to monitor performance.
Like others have said the ubiquiti security gateway does not do web filtering, so I'd go PfSense over that if you don't mind setting it up, it's usually quite bulletproof after that.
I highly reccomend ubiquiti AP's for the wireless side.
