I've got it on a travel router. it's been good and an easy setup. However, it can sometimes be detected by sites that block VPNs. It works more often than Nord did for that, but it still happens sometimes. Speed has been good.

The downside is that you can't really choose the most available server. You have to pick based on configs, but you can at least add as many configs as you want.

I've found that setting the country to Ireland solves the vpn block for me.
