GL.iNet GL-MT6000 Flint 2 Wi-Fi 6 Gaming Router Dual 2.5G Ports

UPDATE 2:This thing is incredible. I cannot believe the price point for this router and all of it's features. This is the Best networking purchase I have ever made, in over 25 years if IT work. I can pull 2.5gbps internet to my desktop, 1.5gbps over wifi, block ads, VPN home, it does band switching automatically, so you don't have to broadcast MyWifi24 and MyWifi5ghz, you just connect to it once and it'll switch automatically, runs OpenWRT under the covers.I recently configured the Wireguard server to check on my Cameras while I'm out. I used to run OpenVPN, but a while back they broke the Spl

This is a decent "home router" that comes with expandable "open source" firmware. This router has a number of features that my previous home router lacked. And this router also has better signal/range than other routers I've owned, and it also crashes less often than those other routers did.One router feature I really like is full support support for the semi-regulated DFS frequencies in the 5ghz WiFi band. While those frequencies are legal to use in the US, they do have extra regulations on them. And sadly most home routers don't implement those extra regulations, so you can't use the DFS fre

This GL.iNet Flint 2 is a massive upgrade for anyone looking to get the most out of a high-speed fiber connection. The dual 2.5G ports are the standout feature here, as they allow for true multi-gigabit speeds that most standard routers just can’t handle. I found the setup process to be incredibly straightforward through the web interface, and the WiFi 6 coverage is strong enough to reach every corner of my home without any dead zones. It handles gaming and 4K streaming simultaneously without any noticeable lag or stuttering. I especially appreciate the built-in VPN support and AdGuard Home in

This router is amazing and very versatile. I love that it comes pre-installed with a version of OpenWrt because that opens a lot of possibilities you absolutely will not find in other consumer-grade routers. It generally just works right out of the box, but then you can customize it until your heart's content, even so far as to flash other versions of open source firmware (which is what I ultimately did since I was only using features from OpenWrt anyway).While it does not look like much (very boxy, plain), it has loads of good qualities.- The antennas do not rotate side-to-side, but they do r

I originally bought this just to stream video games over my local network. The idea was to be able to play any of my Steam games on an ultra powerful PC in any room of the house. I started with powerline adapters, these things you plug into wall power outlets, and then created a sort of wired connection over your electricity wiring, which seemed to improve latency. I was surprised the dream was coming true when I used it but I wanted to optimize it so that it really felt reliable and snappy.I already had a relatively all-in-one modem-router-WiFi from Netgear AC1900, and never had a major probl

This GL.iNet Flint 2 router has been a massive upgrade for our home network. Coverage reaches every corner of the house with strong, consistent speeds, and the Wi-Fi 6 performance handles multiple 4K streams, gaming, and work devices without dropping. The web UI is intuitive, OpenWRT flexibility is excellent, and setting up VLANs and guest networks took only a few minutes. Heat management is solid even under load, and the four antennas keep signal strength high. After weeks of heavy daily use it remains stable and fast. Outstanding value and performance.

Wow! Fantastic features: super fast VPN (sped up my VPN 10 times faster than the router I replaced with this GLi router) with lots of VPN brands easy VPN setup; 2 2.5G & 4 1G ports; fast CPU - a perfect choice. Admin setup has great security, parental control, on/off wi-fi schedule or on full-time. Fast startup. Excellent price.

Rock star of a router! The OpenWRT software is the same as what you find on most other routers, which is fantastic because it's well-supported and reliable. When choosing different router models, you can focus more on the number of ports or CPU capacity, especially for VPN use, rather than just their features because all of their routers are essentially the same OpenWRT software and features.I actually use the Flint 2 as a Wireguard gateway when I travel for work events, and it delivers nearly 800 Mbps to a dedicated VPS Wireguard server. It's a bit large for a "portable" router, but I need th
