Review: Secure, Powerful, and Worth the Effort - This router has truly proved to be an efficient, powerful, and remarkably flexible piece of kit. I initially planned to use the Flint 2 simply as a VPN front-end for my existing Google Nest WiFi mesh system, allowing the Google hardware to handle the Wi-Fi. However, once I started the setup, I quickly realized the Flint 2 was capable enough to stand on its own, and I opted to remove the entire Google mesh network and use the Flint 2 exclusively. The performance has been exceptional. Performance & Features VPN Excellence: The WireGuard client performance with my Surfshark subscription is stellar. The ability to run full-speed VPN and configure Domain-based Split Tunneling (to exclude services like Netflix, Disney+, BBC iPlayer, ITVX, and Channel 4) directly on the router is a game-changer for UK streaming. AdGuard Home: The integrated AdGuard Home feature provides network-wide ad and tracker blocking, creating a cleaner, faster browsing experience across all devices. Network Segmentation: I appreciate the ability to use a Guest Network for low-trust IoT devices (switches, smart plugs) for superior security, keeping my high-value devices segregated on the main network. The Learning Curve (Why it's not 'Plug and Play') To be transparent, this is not a product for beginners. It is a powerful piece of hardware that requires an understanding of network principles to unlock its potential. As the manufacturer states, it's not a plug-and-expect-everything-to-work device. It has taken a couple of days of focused tweaking to get every setting perfectly optimized (especially integrating the VPN, AdGuard, and resolving connectivity issues on devices like Google Nest Hubs due to advanced Wi-Fi features). The Gemini Advantage: This is where modern AI assistance (specifically Google Gemini) made setting things up a breeze. By feeding the logs from both the Flint 2 and AdGuard directly into Gemini, I received simple, step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting advice to resolve tricky blocking and Wi-Fi compatibility issues. As someone with a technical background, Gemini made the configuration process highly efficient and straightforward. Conclusion: I absolutely do not regret buying this. It has replaced a complex mesh network with a single, highly capable device. The flexibility and raw performance are outstanding, and I am confident that my home network is now fast, highly secure, and optimized for both privacy and streaming performance. If you have some technical knowledge and want the absolute best control over your home network, the Flint 2 is the clear choice.
Review: Powerful, flexible, vanilla openwrt capable - This is a fantastic router. I get excellent coverage and it has all the features I need. I just followed instructions from a video on youtube called "Tutorial & notes! on standard Openwrt 25.12 to setup a router securely with mesh capability" and now that it is on vanilla openwrt, I have a strong, stable, fast router which the update support for it will outlive what gl.inet would support with their firmware, since openwrt is the main OG. You can even put the vanilla firmware on older routers that have long since gone out of their support period and get some new, secure life out of them. Things I like about this, it's pretty easy to work with on the regular firmware it comes with. The power is great, it has lots of ports. And if you install vanilla Openwrt you get way more control and flexibility in how you use your router. Even though there is a Flint 2 and a Flint 3 and a Flint 3e and soon a Flint 4... this Flint 2 is a powerhouse. It's built for punch and rock-steady stability. You and your home need this in your lives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A brilliant piece of kit
*by B***N on 22 November 2025*

I do a lot of streaming via apps on a Nvidia Shield TV Pro and decided to look for a router which could host a VPN client due to the consistently low VPN speeds I was experiencing on the Shield. With a 500 Mbps broadband service the best speed I could achieve on the Shield with the NordVPN app installed was 130 Mbps. Trial with a different VPN provider produced similar results. After some homework the thought was moving the VPN app from the Shield to a router could possibly resolve the issue so I bought the GL-MT6000 Flint 2 because along with most of the major VPN providers it natively supports NordVPN. The results were amazing, 475 Mbps on the Shield with NordVPN activated on the GL.iNet router. It also has Adguard Home built in and natively supports NextDNS, all in all just perfect for my needs and best of all it just works. For the price a surprisingly fast processor, loads of RAM with fully customisable firmware via a very intuitive interface. Fully recommended.
