Flint 3

Keep in mind that GL.iNet doesn't run 'vanilla' OpenWrt; it's a proprietary fork. If you want a pure native experience, MediaTek-based devices (like the Flint 2 (AX), beryl AX) are usually the better bet for driver compatibility. While the newer Wi-Fi 7 models like the Flint 3/3e/4 (soon) have Qualc

BPI-R4 (MT7988), most powerful but not recommended for Wi-Fi due to Wi-Fi NIC issues. GL.iNET Flint 2 (MT7986), currently best supported device for Wi-Fi. BPI-R3 (MT7986), like Flint 2 but with SFP. Flint 2's Wi-Fi will be better though as it is not a dev board. Flint 3 (Qualcomm IPQ 53xx), for Wi-F

Appreciate the giveaway GL.iNet! I’ve loved my Flint 3, but seeing the specs on the Flint 4 has me hyped!

Since you’re on r/openwrt, I assume you want to run OpenWrt. Just a heads-up: the Flint 3 doesn’t use OpenWrt, it runs a fork on a proprietary Qualcomm SoC and Glinet software. It’s unlikely to ever support native OpenWrt unless Qualcomm releases documentation and an SDK for OpenWrt developers. If y

GL iNet uses a modified version of OpenWRT (open source operating system) for their routers. The one in the Flint 3 is a more modified version due to their choice of a Qualcomm chip processor over their traditional choice of a MediaTek processor. Qualcomm chips by their closed-source nature isn't we

GL.iNet Flint 3 is a fantastic wifi 7 router at $200. Just bought one, very happy with it. The range is huge and the firmware / software on it is feature rich, includes Adguard Home, just toggle the switch. None of those annoying subscriptions, just a great router.

Actually, I am a GL.iNet official employee. Flint 2 has 4x 1G LAN ports. Flint 3 has 4x 2.5G LAN ports. Next time check out our product pages before providing misinformation :) We have many customers achieving faster speeds on their Flint 3 compared to their Flint 2 due to WiFi 7. It is not a moot p

Flint 2 at $136. https://www.amazon.com/GL-iNet-GL-MT6000-Multi-Gig-Connectivity-WireGuard/dp/B0CP7S3117 The Flint 3 is $34 more expensive, but Wifi 7 is only 10-20% faster and it has a weaker CPU. Yes, older devices can still connect to a 6E/7 signal. What ISP package do you pay for, and what modem

I wanted to isolate a server and put it behind a VPN. So I bought the Flint 3 and connect its WAN to the LAN of the Netgear RS700. Then I used LuCi and configured the firewall so that VPN users are unable to reach anything else on the network. The Netgear has a static route to the Flint. The Flint 3
