GL.iNet GL-MT6000(Flint 2) WiFi 6 Router | Gaming WiFi Router | 2 x 2.5G Multi-Gig Port+4 x 1G Ethernet Ports | Mass Device Connectivity | Rapid OpenVpn & WireGuard | 802.11ax | Long Range Coverage

This device is my main router. It’s is reliable, great signal strength, highly configurable due to it running openWRT.

Excellent

Router uses a custom openwrt firmware, you can flash normal openwrt on it but i decided to stay on the custom version. It’s great with good specs.

I had a Synology RT6600ax that I bought just under a year ago. I really like that router, but I didn't like the fact it only has one 2.5Gb LAN port and the WAN port is only 1Gb. I upgraded my internet plan to 2.5Gb, so that router would no longer work for me. I could have connected the single LAN port to my 2.5Gb switch, but the internet would be limited to 1Gb. I tried various workarounds, but decided it needed to be replaced. I did some research and people were raving about the GL.iNet GL-MT6000 (Flint 2) router. I was a bit unsure, but the price was so good I decided it wouldn't be too big of a risk. The risk has so far paid off and this is an exceptional router. It runs on OpenWRT, but configuring it wasn't too difficult because GL.iNet has a custom GUI which simplifies things. I like the custom GUI, but I also like that the OpenWRT GUI is still accessible for more advanced settings. Once I got the router up and running, I was shocked at the WiFi performance. In addition to the Synology router, I had three Synology MR2200ac access points. Even with the GL-MT6000 (Flint 2) router in the basement, it still had a much faster speeds than the Synology access points. I almost didn't connect my Synology access points, but I thought it would be best to do so since I have IoT devices outside the house and the signal might not go that far (especially seeing as how the router was in the basement equipment room). Configuring the Synology MR2200ac access points without the Synology router was still possible. I was able to have the wireless devices that connect to the main network via the Synology APs appear on my GL-MT6000 (Flint 2) router and be handled via DHCP. I still need to figure out VLAN on OpenWRT to have my IoT devices be handles by the GL-MT6000 (Flint 2) router DHCP. These devices are currently being handled by the Synology APs, and it they are working fine. I originally bought this router expecting to use it until I found something better. I don't know if I will be replacing it anytime soon. Though not as simple to configure as a Synology router, it outperforms my Synology RT6600ax router in many other ways.

Fantastic router, especially for the price. Easy to set up, and the VPN works great (I use Nord VPN). Absolutely worth every penny.

Es un verdadero cañón de router. Llevo con él un par de semanas. Y he de decir que desde el primer momento, se ha notado una barbaridad la diferencia con respecto al del proveedor. Lo más notorio es que la conexión es mucho más estable y no se cae tanto. Además incorpora funciones avanzadas de control y gestión del tráfico, filtrado de anuncios con adguard, etc. Fácil de configurar con la interfaz de gli, pero tambien dispone de Luci, la interfaz de openwrt para hacer ajustes y configuraciones avanzadas, instalar paquetes adicionales, actualizar el software, etc... Comentar que cuando os metáis por primera vez a la interfaz web y configuréis la WAN para tener acceso a internet. El propio router os pedirá que hagáis una actualización del software del sistema. No dudéis en hacerlo, pues esto corrige varios fallos de estabilidad, seguridad y demás de la versión anterior. Por lo demás, poco que decir de este "pepinazo" un router con lo ultimo en hardware de redes para uso doméstico y no tan doméstico. Muy buen rendimiento, muchas funciones y posiblemente el mejor sistema operativo para redes y enrutadores que hay en la actualidad. OpenWRT es insuperable. Y este es de los pocos routers del mercado que lo soportan de manera nativa. Vale cada euro, aunque yo lo pille en oferta prime y me salio muy rebajado de precio. Al principio dudaba entre el MiKrotik Hap AX3 y este. Y al final me quedé con este, sobretodo por ser OpenWRT. Ya que el firmware es de código abierto. Y a que leí opiniones discordantes del mikrotik con respecto al rendimiento del WiFi y demás. GliNet es una buena marca que lleva unos cuantos años en el mercado haciendo buenos dispositivos de red. Sin ser por ello excesivamente caros. En serio no te defraudará. Lo dice un administrador de sistemas al que le encantan estos cacharros más que a un tonto un lápiz.

Excellent routeur. Installation très intuitive.
