TP-LinkAC750 Wireless Portable Nano Travel Router(TL-WR902AC) - Support Multiple Modes, WiFi Router/Hotspot/Bridge/Range Extender/Access Point/Client Modes, Dual Band WiFi, 1 USB 2.0 Port

I purchased this device for its Hotspot mode; ability to connect this to an existing Wi-Fi network and then connect all my devices to this. One of my use cases is traveling in my RV, we have multiple TVs, a printer, smart devices, etc. and don't want to have to connect each one to the RV park every night. Also, the printer won't work (outside of WiFi direct mode) because they are both clients on a private network. This device should solve that problem because it creates our own network.Okay so testing at home, had some issue and I used the tp-link support chat function, after a few minutes Bryant Chacon found a default setting (DNS address set to local) that prevented getting to the Internet. We fixed it and Boom! it worked. I will next use it on the road and see how it goes, but for at-home testing, 5 stars. Great support, thanks.

I travel for work. So I am in hotels often.I LOVE the ability to plug a gadget in, and point it to the access point, and have all my devices automatically connect up. This was necessary to satisfy the problem of Google chromecast, where it requires a phone to operate, and they must be on the same wifi network. (Most hotels isolate devices to keep guests secure from each other)I bought the small nano first. And I later purchased the larger version (TL-WR902AC). So I will provide the pros and cons of each here.Please also note that I am EXCLUSIVELY using this in hotels in wi-fi only (never plugged in the RJ-45 ethernet) as a wi-fi access point for all my tech, I've not used it for anything else. There are many other features and capabilities that are not accounted for here.Nano:+ simple setup, great wizard.+ SOOOOO tiny+ Works great with Marriott/SPG hotels (and everywhere else I've tried it)- Struggles with multiple devices, the single band antenna seems to be a big restriction in speed and multiple devices.- Slow speedsBig brother (AC902 model)+ Much cleaner and more stable connections - handles all my devices brilliantly.+ Far more features (that I don't use)+ Larger than the nano (picture for reference) but still so small that it's perfect for travel- Setup is not so streamlined. Additional hardware toggle on the device makes it more confusing. (I use the middle setting, "Share Hotspot")Side-notes:I used this exclusively at a single hotel before upgrading, so the differences noticed between the two models were all at the same property.Both devices get a bit warm, but nothing concerning, and it's not at all surprising given how tightly they are packing them.Both are small enough that the only reason I would recommend the nano over the big brother is if you need something to fit in your pocket, or purse, and don't have high expectations in terms of speed.

I needed this to connect several WiFi devices to a WiFi hotspot that only allows one connection. It worked fine at first. I connected my phone by WiFi, logged in to the admin account and was able to connect it to two different hotspots without any issues.All was wonderful at first, but I wanted to be able to use the same WiFi password that we always use. Logged in to the admin account by WiFi, there was no access to changing neither the admin password nor the WiFi password. But, Quick Setup did have a provision to change the WiFi password, so I changed it to what we always use.Once I did that, I was only able to connect to the device's WiFi using the phone I changed the password with. No other devices could connect to the device. So, I did a reset. Once reset, nothing would connect to the device. I couldn't connect using the default password, and when I tried the password I had changed it to, it devices just saved the connection and wouldn't connect. When I turned the device on, it would still connect to the hotspot I set it for, so obviously it hadn't been fully reset.I had an insecure Internet connection using ethernet (https sites wouldn't open), but no means of connecting to it by WiFi. Using ethernet, I was able to log in to the admin account once, but once I tried to access any settings, it stopped responding. I used the reset button several times, but no change.When I tried to return it, instead of getting return options, I got the option to either chat with somebody or get called. I chose chat and enjoyed an hour long conversation with somebody that told me it needed a SIM card 45 minutes in to the conversation. Well, isn't that special?I asked her if the device should default back to the factory password after a reset and she said Yes. I said, "Well, it doesn't. Will you accept the return?" She said I had to talk to TP's tech support first. I told her they can email me if they want, but I'm not talking to anybody. Haven't heard from them.This is a Prime device and I'm a Prime member. I've never been jerked around like this over a return. At this point, I've already wasted more time than recouping the cost is worth, so in the trash it goes.

Does not USB tether.Does not have an on off switch.Easy to set up.Compact.Works well as an access point.Works well with a wired internet source.
