Review GL.iNet GL-E750V2 4G LTE OpenWrt VPN Router

GL.iNet GL-E750V2 (MUDI) 4G LTE OpenWrt VPN Router, T-Mobile Only, MicroSD Slot, 7000mAh Battery, OpenVPN, WireGuard, Tor, Programmable Router (EM060K Module), Global Version

I love this product! ...I know, I know, given the title, this may sound like a stretch. But please stay with me for a moment. I’ve been the proud (and sometimes disappointed) owner of this portable router since February 2024, and while it works as a nice little piece of hardware, there are a few “holds” that make me question my purchase.

Let’s break it down:

1. It’s too hot. When I say exciting, I mean like a Hollywood action hero running through fireballs, but less cool and more boring. If you live or travel to a hot place, expect your router to go from normal to zero in record time. August 16th will go down in history as the day my Mudi v2 battery died. While it still works when plugged into a power outlet, it stops working when you’re on the go. That’s what portable devices are for.

2. The hardware is unusable. Yes, I said it. My dream was to insert a 1TB MicroSD card and have my own little media hub to share files and movies across all my devices. Unfortunately, that dream was shattered. Whether the feature was quietly removed or never existed, it turns out the hardware wasn’t up to the task. Sure, OpenWRT could bring it back to life, but that’s like adding kerosene to a kite. More warming is expected. Great.

3. The battery life is thirsty. Speaking of power, this thing burns out faster than losing a bottle of water in the desert. Even in sleep mode, the battery does everything except protect itself. You’ll have to charge this little device more than you care to admit.

4. 4G (but maybe 5G if you’re willing to sell a kidney). Yes, the WiFi antenna can be replaced and upgraded to 5G, but surprise: it costs almost the same as the new Mudi V2. Yes.

So what's my advice? Wait until you have something better. Get a simple and cheap 4G travel router that doesn't promise anything big but will give you some great gems. If you're still a fan of GL-iNet, you should consider one of the other routers that don't have a battery. At least the devices know what they're doing.
