mlee12382Ohh, doh, I thought it was the other way around. It does look like they dropped 6Ghz on the 3e.
No_Promotion7055Very stable, raw performance and VPN speed - the Flint 2 is the winner due to its faster 2.0 GHz CPU and superior VPN processing power (up to 900 Mbps WireGuard speeds). It is also silent due to passive cooling. Flint 3e = Flint 3 minus 6GHz band.
Repulsive-Koala-4363Yes. They are good. Plentiful of great features like VPN server (Wireguard), built in Adguard etc. I’m currently testing the Flint 3e and it is working great with no issues since I received the beta version.
It’s a another release of Flint series WiFi 7 with only dual band. https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-be6500/ Beta testers usually get the early release model of the product before they release it to public.
You beat me to it. The GL-iNet Flint 2 is fancy enough with the price to features ratio. I am using both Flint 2 and 3e and they are both stable and signal strength and speed are somewhat similar.
We probably have similar sized house and used to have 2x ruckus h510 enterprise access point but when i discovered the GL-inet I was converted. Currently using Flint 3e and it’s been rock solid too. Both the Flint 2 and 3e. Some people say the Flint 3 is a bit unstable but i believe a firmware update had fixed it.
asmoovedabapestaGLinet Flint 3 and up. Just setup for my father in law that also has spectrum. Comes with a bunch of features.
EaZyRecipeZRouterich BE7200 looks good. I'm using Flint 3 wifi7, so far happy with all 3 bands and vlans are working.
MarshallZPieMy GLiNet Flint 2 with some tweaking is far better than any of the gaming and non-gaming routers I've had that were double the price or more. The flint 3 is out and I'd recommend anyone in need of a new router to just get that one, I personally don't really need to upgrade right now so I'm not gonna bother, too much of a hassle lol.
mjbeckerncGliNet Flint 2 or Flint 3(e). I have a Flint3 for Wifi7 devices and it is ROCK SOLID to date in a 2600 sq ft house!
thebroughfamilyIf your not one to mess around with things it'll be fine, it's major issue is being behind openwrt development, so packages are out of date, as is the version of openwrt it uses, so when you start wanting to use custom packages, so much is broken it's a pain. If your happy to use the few bits glinet give you and will just leave it alone, then it'll do you fine. If you want proper openwrt then currently the Asus BT8 is the way to go for wifi 7.
