Thanks for the comment and support, as always! This video (Flint 2) is actually sponsored by GL-iNet. However, I my review/testing is from the real life usage and it reflects the true peformance, there is no personal bias.
@@VanTechCorner - He said he got the Flint2 (I'm guessing), anyway 500Mbps over Wireguard is quite good. I have tried tethering my 5G iPhone 13 to both the Flint1 and Fint2, but the highest speed I get is 50Mbps (both ethernet or WiFi). On the phone or when tethered directly to Windows I get over 400Mbps. What do you think the could be causing the low speeds?
Thanks so much for testing PPPOE on this! Really appreciate knowing this will work well. (we have an ISP in Canada that forces PPPOE as the only option)
Simple the best home router on the market right NOW, at 150 EURs puts any Synology or any other brand at shame, open source wrt and dual 2.5GB LAN is just a cherry in top of the cake.
Consider price & performance (Ethernet, Wireless, VPN) I agree with you. Yet there are different choices/routers that can do 2.5Gbps, such as R6S, NanoPC-T6 (also running OpenWrt based), UniFi, Mikrotik devices but these products are on a different price range.
@@VanTechCorner Im using Unifi, but is a much more expensive solution, with this and a cheap 2.5GB switch any home user can have WIFI6, router and 2.5Gb LAN for all the house with less than 250 EURs, there isn't many others solutions out there for the price.
Im waiting for this. Nice! p.s. its better to use 4.5.7 version with MTK proprietary driver since it is far more stable and has no 2.4ghz high latency low speed problem. Only caveat is that its based on Openwrt 21.02 but with release 5 and newer kernel, I was still able to install packages that I need.
I test it and for me is good router but not perfect. Instability when using SQM and also there is no UPNP to map ports automatically and other stuff. Disabling NAT acceleration sometimes is good choice but as you seen from the video the speed cut a lot But considering price, yes it's a value choice.
Hi, I'm watching your videos about openwrt, I wish you could make a video that talks about configuring a wifi repeater with openwrt, there are many questions regarding this subject. Thank you very much and continue helping us with your videos.
Hi, I have some videos about WiFi: Wireless Bridge: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fl1TXlQakxg.html Wireless Client / AP Client: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VX2PYzGMntc.html May I know what is your setup/question?
I recommend updating to the beta version as it is far superior in stability, wifi and everything else, if you are going to update do so using uboot as it is a downgrade of the openwrt version from 23.05 to 21.02
Those are good wifi speeds I also have 1Gb up/down fiber. Has anyone tested this router with the latest stock openwrt snapshot? If so how is the performance compared to the router vendor's openwrt? I am asking because I prefer to compile my own openwrt builds from source with luci pre-installed as well as some other modules.
wasted, didnt think it was 2x2 MIMO for the wifi 6, else would have recommended this to bulk of my buddies however as a security or adblocking router gateway, its more than enough but for power users with up to 5 family members with assumed 3 devices each, its gonna be a wifi nightmare for sure to have this deployed,
