    Use a router setup to combine network connections for throughput, setup in a box with solar in motel central, and tada, you’re risking someone else’s connection.

      I already use a glinet beryl ax for all my hotel stays- they’re typically 8 weeks at a time so it’s important for me to be able to isolate myself from their standard network.

          can confirm that it works well, however ease of use typically keeps me off of the vpn for my quest 3. it does occasionally glitch out a bit since newer hotel networks are usually dualband so you’ll have to manually set the beryl to only accept 5ghz otherwise it’ll frequently deauth. I’ve noticed that sometimes it’ll also deauth if there’s another beryl on the same network. It’s kind of like playing whack a mole with deauthing.
