Travel Router for Tailscale and VPN with Preferably Camouflaging Capabilities
Tailscale support (to connect back to my home network) https://docs.gl-inet.com/router/en/4/interface_guide/tailscale/ Something to be mindful of: Tailscale implementation is half baked, so much that someone from the community had to fix it https://www.reddit.com/r/GlInet/comments/1rohrna/enhanced_tai

Firmware 4.9 Questions
"Many older GL.iNet models are still receiving security patches and maintenance updates even if they aren’t getting headline features." I was surprised when I saw my AR300M getting an update last yr. But on the flip side, my Beryl, Flint 2, Brume, etc have not been updated in over a year. I'm not ev

Does anyone know of a VPN that works with the Glinet router specifically in China?
I use Gl.iNet routers (Flint 2 and MT3000 for travel), but I don't use Gl.iNet firmware. That's the first thing you should do. Either way, you wouldn't want to use the global VPN providers that come with the Gl.iNet firmware. Instead, you should install Clash or Passwall and use the airports, aka v2

Most powerful/fastest WIFI 6/AX router fully compatible with OpenWRT?

Need help with a Flint 2 + Beryl AX WireGuard setup
Thanks. I’m using GL.iNet’s built-in WireGuard server/client setup with QR import, so I didn’t manually duplicate configs. The client profile was generated directly from the Flint 2 server and imported into the Beryl. The main issue is the Beryl VPN dashboard stays stuck on “Connecting…” and interne

GL.iNet Flint 2 (GL-MT6000) – I'm done. Outdated "stable" on EOL kernel, op24 stuck in beta limbo since Nov 2025, forced clean flashes. No more GL.iNet for me.
The unbricking process is unreliable. Booting into u-boot requires a lot of patience and luck. I have had to do this probably 30 times or more, so it does work, but I am on pins and needles until it finishes. I've had to repeat the process up to 5 or 6 different time to get it to accept the .bin. My

Bufferbloat - how low would you go?
Okay, here is the info I have gotten to add to this issue. 3 servers and 3 clients all have 1gb fiber. speedtest.net and speed.cloudflare.com show 800/600 speeds or better at all 6 locations with 10ms at the most as latency when they are not connected to VPN. 2 clients (I haven't been able to check
