This router comes with pre-installed VPN support for over 30 companies and even offers bandwidth aggregation for those who require higher speeds.

GL.iNet has launched the Spitz Plus GL-X2000, a portable router that utilizes Wi-Fi 6 technology, powered by a dual-core Qualcomm IPQ5018 processor running at 1 GHz. This new device stands out for its dual-SIM connectivity capability and bandwidth aggregation feature, which combines the data speeds of two SIM cards into a single faster connection.

The router supports 4G LTE Cat.12 with tri-band carrier aggregation, which helps reduce network congestion and improve data speed. This allows for download speeds of up to 600 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 150 Mbps across different frequency bands globally. In addition to the dual SIM slots and gigabit Ethernet connectivity, the GL-X2000 offers the option to install a physical eSIM, allowing users to store up to eight profiles for seamless operator switching.

Like the D-Link G530 5G NR AX3000 router, this device supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with speeds of up to 574 Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and up to 2402 Mbps on the 5GHz band. For wired connections, it features a gigabit WAN port and a gigabit LAN port, enabling high-speed data transfers with low latency.

The design of the GL-X2000 includes four large antennas, two for LTE and two for Wi-Fi, optimizing signal reception and connection stability. With external SMA connectors, users can swap antennas to enhance coverage, which is especially useful in mobile configurations, rural areas, or places with weak cellular signals.

Operating on a customized version of OpenWrt 19.07, the router can function in router, access point, wireless bridge, and wired bridge modes. It also offers features like quality of service (QoS) management, encrypted DNS, and policy-based routing, providing greater control over network traffic.

For those seeking a secure router, the GL-X2000 comes with pre-installed VPN support for over 30 providers, allowing OpenVPN speeds of up to 30 Mbps and WireGuard speeds of up to 190 Mbps. Remote management options enable users to monitor data usage, update firmware, and configure settings from anywhere.

This router has a relatively low power consumption, operating at under 14W with a 12V/2.5A input, making it compatible with portable batteries. Weighing 443 grams and measuring 141 x 86 x 36 mm, it remains compact while offering full networking functionality. Currently, the GL-X2000 is available at a 23% discount, priced at $185.90 in North America and $175.90 in the EU, UK, and Australia. Its regular price without discount is $239.90 and $229.90, respectively.
