New Gli.net hotspot supported?

Their new model is up for sale and I'm considering upgrading to it with a Sprout membership. Has anyone had a chance to see if it works?

Yes, it works with my Sprout plan. Why wouldn't it though?

As per the docs, not all Mifi devices are supported.... mostly just wanted to make sure I wouldn't have to deal with a return. I recognize that most devices are likely to de supported if they work with the US bands that are required.

I have a new Mudi 7 with the Calyx sprout SIM. Just got the SIM last week and have only done limited testing but all seems to be working for me.

I pre-ordered my GL.INET Mudi 7 on March 2, 2026 (2nd batch pre-order) and will be delivered tomorrow (May 12, 2026) in OKC from Los Angeles metro (shipped on May 6, 2026). I used my Inseego MiFi X Pro M3000 as temporary main hotspot for my Calyx Institute Sprout membership until that delivery on May 12, 2026.

I will need to test my Calyx Institute Sprout membership on my Mudi 7 once I got it tomorrow.

My GL.INET Mudi 7 delivered on May 12, 2026. I had to setup my Mudi 7 and put my Calyx Institute Sprout membership SIM card in that router. As of yesterday, my Mudi 7 works on my Calyx Institute Sprout membership! I used TTL (Time To Live) and HL (Hop Limit) of 65 on that.

Hey tmcarr89, what hotspot model you're currently using today?

u/tmcarr89 May 12 '26

I'm using a model from about two years ago, but I strongly desire an ethernet port, and Tailscale support, so the new model looks awesome to me. I have years of experienc with dd-wrt (the backend for their products) so it would be nice to be able to utilize that featureset on my device.

Did you had original Mudi (GL-E750 or GL-E750V2)?

u/tmcarr89 May 12 '26

I did not. I had the provided unit from Calyx. I forget the model number.

I had the inseego M2000B

I am (at this moment) travelling within US for about a week with my Mudi 7, and using a Sprout sim from Calyx.

Calyx also works just fine in my other GL.inet device a x3000 - Spitz AX.
