The Ubiquiti Travel Router appears to be back in stock, if you’re interested.

@caseyliss Thanks for the heads up! Managed to snag one before they sold out. I’ve got a long trip coming up in February that this will be perfect for.

@caseyliss I am monitoring it through my changetecection.io instance and I’ve clicked the link the moment I got a notification few hours ago. It was out of stock again.

@caseyliss Missed the first round, signed up for email alerts.
That appears pointless, as no alert received for this round at all. (Not even too late.) Sigh.

And of course, this morning been busy and saw your post too late. Thanks for trying to help those less fortunate.

@caseyliss Casey and reddit are faster...

@spitfire Not snark: make sure you crank down the frequency on this one to every 1-5 minutes. They tend to go in less than an hour.

@caseyliss ok, didn’t think I have to go that far

@caseyliss You can't use this as a mesh extender of an existing network, right? I don't have much use for it on the road, but if it could pull double duty doing that at home, I'd be more seriously considering it.

Casey Liss

@dmoren That’s right; it will not act as an extender

@caseyliss
I usually go camping when I travel so I would need some sort of uplink.
For obvious reasons, I would never use Starlink, which means I would need an LTE router with a huge freaking antenna.

@caseyliss My change detection interval missed this

@caseyliss I really want to try one at sporting events to have a better, hopefully mote reliable connections to stadium WiFi to which I can connect to my camera’s Ethernet jack for better FTP uploads. The WiFi won’t stay connected to my camera and they won’t let media use the Ethernet drops at the venue I photograph the most (though I have run my own Ethernet and APs at small enough venues that won’t notice).

The Router is available for like 4 minutes a day. I got lucky last week with this. Maybe you want to give it a try

@b3ll @caseyliss you snooze you lose.

@caseyliss Casey, you definitely sold me on this although I don't need it during the episode. Although I don't think I needed it, what are the use cases for a "Normie?" if you use a Wi-Fi hotspot and connected to this, will it boost the signal? What is the advantage to using this rather than simply having multiple devices connect to a mobile hotspot (esp if you're not going to use a router based VPN)?
