Liberty Shield Lite VPN Router - Connect every device to VPN, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Fast Streaming Speeds, Multi Country, Pre-Configured Plug & Play

Great product.Easy to setup and amazing customer service.

I have used Liberty Shield VPN Routers for years now and found them to be very reliable. It’s easy to set up and use and the price is very competitive. The signal strength is always very good and in my experience does not drop out. The size of the router makes it very discreet next to your internet suppliers router and this also makes it very portable.I would recommend this product to anyone that is looking for a secure connection or when looking to watch Uk TV while overseas.

Well if the original had babies this would be it, identical in features, bar the blue on 1 side.Nice and small, few buttons on unit not pressed yet, hopefully won’t need to press as dare say 1 is a reset. It’s great comes with an actual plug unlike the pyramid I bought just over 2 years ago, so yes, this is the replacement to that as pyramids came unreliable. Now the only thing I actually dismiss how short the cat cable is, however it’s not the cat cable I bought this for, it’s the fact that can hide ip addresses. For size it smaller than the iPhone in height, appearance looks nice n fresh.

The only positive thing I can say about this VPN Router is that it was easy to set up.On a negative side, it has 3 major issues which I consider to be critical. In order of priority:- LibertyShield as a VPN provider should be ashamed of their service. The service drops far too regularly... and it is definitely their service as the broadband connection is working perfectly when not routed through the VPN. As a paying customer, I expected the service to be up 100% of the time.- Connection speeds reduce dramatically when routing through the VPN... and I mean via an ethernet cable and not the WiFi. If you stream anything that is in HD then expect poor buffering and a video stream that stops and starts. Even loading a stream is noticeably slower. Again regular broadband has no such issue.- The WiFi signal is very poor. Basically, if you are intending to connect this to a media device then make sure that device can be connected via an ethernet cable. The WiFi is also extremely slow both to connect to and download/upload transfer rates.In short, I paid for a year’s subscription after the free trial as there was a 50% offer and I cannot see myself renewing unless LibertyShield dramatically improve the consistency of their service. There are most definitely better products and services available.

Very helpful instructions to useWorks very well

With internet speeds increasing all the time and Gigabit networking common I'm not sure why anyone would bother with a 100Mbs router. If however you want a cheap one to take a look at how Mikrotics RouterOS works here's how.Google for Mikrotik Netinstall. The first link to Mikrotiks home page will take you to the necessary documentation.The process uses the reset button on the back of the router to put the device into Netinstall mode which allows you to connect to the router and flash the latest version of the Mikrotik software. The downloads page on Mikrotiks website has the latest software downloads and Netinstall.Follow the process in the documentation carefully its easy to follow but Netinstall isn't totally intuitive to use.One tip to save wasting time is to restart (take power lead out and put it back) the router after the Netinstall process is complete then do a standard reset to give you the full factory default (info on Mikrotiks website google Mikrotik Reset - pull power hold in reset button replace power and keep reset pressed until the LED nearest the reset switch flashes). After Netinstall the router has no basic config info at all which may confuse some people, after the reset the device is just as it would be if bought new.With the price of these going below a tenner I've bought two and flashed the software so I can set up a little Mikrotik lab for under £20 to see how their software works with wireless point to point configurations.

EDITED REVIEW. I have completely rewritten this review because of some amazing support from Liberty Shield.Now to be clear, this Lite version of their VPN router and the VPN service aren’t for me. Although, I’m sure they will be perfect for other people. They’re simply just not suited to my particular need.However, I have given 5 stars because of Liberty Shield’s fantastic technical support. They responded to my first email first thing in the morning and then made two further quick replies later in the same day. They also fixed an issue that I was having, all within one day.If after sales and technical support are a high priority for you when buying a tech item. Then I would whole heartedly recommend Liberty Shield if their VPN routers and VPN service suit your requirements.

Brilliant ,cheap but gived peace of mind 5*
