I just emailed TP-link about a travel router.
I bought the TL-WR810N last year, which is not only a router, access point and range extender but is also able to be set up as a wifi hotspot when traveling (use one log-in for multiple devices and be able to use with Chromecast). I wasn't able to set it up when I tried in Newcastle last year, but thought I was making a mistake. With my upcoming vacation in November I decided to figure it out tonight. And it turns out TP-Link removed the hotspot option on the European version.
Not a huge problem, in our house a portable range extender and access point is always handy. After some research I found another wifi hotspot router available in the Netherlands. Again made by TP-Link. According to the manual and Dutch website you should be able to set it up as a hotspot. But just to be safe I emailed them to ask if this is correct. One can only use so many access point/range extenders, even in our thick walled house.
