7 of 8 people found the following review helpful  Worked like a charm!, March 7, 2012 This review is from: TP-LINK Portable 3G/3.75G IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b Wireless N Router (TL-MR3020) (Personal Computers) I first think about apple air for my travel because many hotels here and there don't offer wireless and I want only my iPad with me. After seeing the apple reviews talking about difficult installation, I gave up because I am no tech person. I happened to come across this one, not much reviews neither,but one of them mentioned that it's plug and play. It's cheaper too, so why not! To my surprise, the product is very pretty, small,extremely light, and no configuration is needed,but just a plug and I saw my wifi working. Now I want to learn how to set a password if possible and will try in hotel setting to see if it works the same. Then, I will come back to update my review...if I remember :) Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

Great portable travel router, September 8, 2012 This review is from: TP-LINK Portable 3G/3.75G IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b Wireless N Router (TL-MR3020) (Personal Computers) This little portable router worked perfectly, with the setup minimal. Only thing missing was a case or pouch to carry it. I went to Las Vegas recently with my Nexus 7 tablet, which does not have a wired ethernet port. I also assumed that some of the hotels in Vegas still had wired internet connections in their rooms. My stay was at the Monte Carlo, which only has the wired connection in the room. So I plugged cable into this router in the Access Point mode, which in turn sends out wi-fi signals that my Nexus7 picked up. A couple of tabs on the Nexus7 to accept the hotels terms, etc. and I had internet access. I was able to check my emails, etc. in my room. Since the hotel charges you a daily fee which includes Internet access, might as well put it to good use. So this TP-Link router worked as advertised. Plug in the required cables, setup was almost automatic, and instant wi-fi connection to the Internet. The price was great too.
