I just purchased a Beryl AX and a Brume 2. I plan on setting up wireguard server on the brume 2 at my home network and using the beryl ax as a client vpn router. I work using a company issued laptop. There seem to be two use cases from what I've read:

When at a remote location where I...

• can physically manipulate the router managing the local wifi network (IE hotel room, airbnb, etc.), I plug my client vpn router directly into the router using an ethernet cable. Then, I connect my work laptop to the beryl supplied wifi network.

• cannot physically manipulate the router managing the local wifi network (IE a coffee shop, lobby of a hotel, etc.), I plug my beryl ax directly into my laptop using an ethernet cable... thus all internet traffic in/out of my laptop goes through the vpn client (a gateway if you will) and then the client connects to the local wifi network

Are there any flaws in my interpretation?

Supposed I have a phone number with an area code specific to my hometown for my personal iphone. I live in the US and would like to live in another state that isn't my home state. Would Azure MFA Authenticator app on my iphone leak my location from the new state? Per the wiki, it is not suggested that personal devices be on the same VPN network as the work laptop, so I'm thinking that the communication between the work laptop and the Authenticator app would leak location? What if I opt for SMS text verification codes instead, will that leak location?

I suppose if you are renting an Airbnb then of course no one is going to ask for an income verification. But what if you want to live in a different state for a long while (1yr+)? Wouldn’t it blow your cover if a landlord tries to verify your employment by contacting your employer, as part of a standard lease application process?
