Review: Very low power usage, and Excellent performance - This thing has Very low power usage, and Excellent performance. It is a very advanced router, without WiFi. It uses 1-2 watts using it as a router. It's very easy to configure with many advanced features. The RAM and Flash memory are unusually large, so you can use it for a network that has a massive number of devices with all kinds of special rules for routing if you like, and it's solid. I looked for years for this kind of device. Finally I found it.
Review: Nifty device for home VPN server - Just set up my Brume 2 as a VPN server so I can securely connect back to my home network from anywhere. It required configuring WireGuard server on the admin panel and setting up port forwarding on my router since the Brume 2 sits behind it, but the process was pretty smooth thanks to a helpful online tutorial. The device itself is great — super small form factor and the aluminum case gives it a really clean, modern look on my desk. I did have an issue with updating to the latest firmware, but support was quick and very helpful in getting it sorted out. Overall, really impressed. Compact, capable, and a solid solution for running a home VPN.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does it have a 2.5gbe wan port if the lan port is only 1gbe? what is the common use case for the extra speed if it's not available on the lan?**
A: Also you. A push 1gb through the lan and have 1.5gb left for the wireless. 

Also I use this as a file server and change the wan to lan. I can use the full 2.5gb on my 2.5gb wired network for transferring files.

**Q: Country of origin is China. How do I know my data does not go there?**
A: Although the device was originally from China, your personal data is guaranteed to be secured and would not be leaked to third parties.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BUY THIS DEVICE -> if you need remote access to systems behind a Starlink internet connection.
*by M***O on September 23, 2026*

BUY THIS DEVICE -> if you need remote access to your systems that are sitting behind a Starlink internet connection. I spent 2.5 days trying to setup a software-based VPN solution and never did get it working. Starlink uses CGNAT and IPv6 in their network and it is no joke. Don't be me...save all that headache and hassle and get this device. The MT5200 Brume 2 set itself up with ZERO ISSUES. It took me longer to unbox it than it did to configure and have a successful test.
