Hello everyone! 
I'm new here and hope I can find help in this forum. I am somewhat tech-savvy, but am completely lost when it comes to network-stuff. So, here it comes:
I am considering buying one of GL iNets travel routers, but have no idea which one and, more importantly, if my use case is even feasible/possible.
My use case:
For most of the year I live and use the internet in Bavaria, Germany. I have a cable internet connection with Vodafone Germany (speeds of 250Mbit down / 50 up). I'm using the standard Wifi router that comes with such a contract (this one). For a few weeks of the year I travel to Asia and would need to be able to access the internet there with the same IP address that is used when I am in Germany (despite physically being in Asia).
When I google "what is my IP address?" it needs to show the German one. When I go to my location in Google Maps, it needs to show my German one (I mean when Wifi is used for location tracking on my laptop, of course - my phone's GPS will obviously show Asia). I hope you get the idea.
Is that even something that is possible with one of your travel routers? (I think yes, but I really am not sure if I understood it correctly)
In case the answer to that question is yes, allow me to further elaborate:
In Asia, most of the time I will have my private Wifi router (speeds of 500Mbit up and down). So, I would be able to provide an internet connection to the travel router from that router via LAN cable. Sometimes, however, I may be in a hotel or out and about, which means the options to provide internet to the travel router via the hotel Wifi (repeater mode, right?) as well as via the internet from my phone (tethering, right?) would also be nice. Oh, and I would like to connect both my laptop (via LAN) and my Android phone (via Wifi) to that travel router.
I would also need the option that the connection is immediately cut in case a connection to my router in Germany cannot be made (reason being that Vodafone Germany unfortunately has frequent outages).
If that is all something that is possible, kindly advise me which travel router I should purchase based on the following:
- I don't need to connect a USB device with media on it to the travel router for file sharing (I just don't use that).
- It doesn't need to be crazy fast. As long as it supports the bandwidths I mentioned above, that's enough.
- As mentioned above, it needs a LAN port. But really only one as I only connect my laptop via LAN. The rest (just my phone) will be via Wifi.
- The Wifi signal should be reliable, of course. But it doesnt' need to have some crazy range. Most of the time, my phone will be rather close to the travel router anyway.
- Ideally, it's as small as possible without sacrificing functionality / reliability.
So far, I have looked at the "Opal (GL-SFT1200)", the "GL-MT3000 (Beryl AX)", the "GL-MT1300 (Beryl)" as well as the "GL-MT300N-V2 (Mango)". I cannot for the life of me tell the difference in the feature set of these routers (except for the number of ports, maybe). In case any of them works for my use cas, I'd probably prefer the GL-MT300N-V2 (Mango) as it's the smallest and cheapest. Any particular downsides to that one that I should be aware of?
Thank you so much in advance for taking the time to read through all of that and possibly assist me! It is much appreciated
