When using abroad, can i have it auto-disconnect if the vpn fails? i had nord drop on laptop b4 and show my location. can this stop that happening?thx

I have just checke din the settings and there is a switch "Block Non-VPN Traffic". The description is: "If this option is enabled, all traffic from client devices trying to be sent out of the VPN tunnel will be blocked, which will effectively prevent VPN leaks due to client DNS settings, dropped VPN connections, client apps requesting by IP, etc." I think this is a YES to your answer, isn't it?

Can it be powered by laptop usb port or a powerbank? not every place has a power socket to be used.

I have just tested this with my Mophie JuicePack and I can confirm that it works (don't know how long though as I only did a short test). I suspect that a laptop with a USB 3 port would also work. If I get chance I'll plug it into my media box USB port later and report back (if that's possible here).

Does this have a sim slot

Dear customer, The GL-AXT1800 router is not equipped with a SIM card slot. However, you can connect it to the internet by using a cellular-enabled USB modem into the router's USB port. For additional information, we kindly suggest clicking on the docs provided below to access further details. https://docs.gl-inet.com/router/en/4/user_guide/gl-axt1800/internet/ We hope the above is useful to you. Thank you. Sincerely, GL.iNet

Hi Is this compatible with expressvpn? not listed as a compatible router on their site and firmware download is not available- are instructions given?

Hi, I have tested this with every possible VPN. Several VPN have issues. ExpressVPN: You configure it manually by loading a WireGuard profile. Router support for this VPN is no good (very slow) and does not unblock UK’s Channel 5. SmartDNS requires changing region of Apple TV or Smart TV for MediaStreamer to work. I recommend WeVPN (WireGuard) or NordVPN (OpenVPN only) for this router.
