As other reviews have noted, this is a fantastic bit. I brought because I was frustrated by the ISP supplied routers sluggish performance and abysmal WiFi coverage that needed a booster puck to cover the downstairs area. Compared to the ISP router and booster puck, this router on its own blasts them out of the water in terms of speed and coverage. As other reviews have noted, it is important to upgrade the router's firmware as a first step (which is an easy one-click and done task). I am reviewing this after a few months of continuous use and the router has been rock solid. If you are looking for a WiFi router, in my opinion this is the one to buy. Compared to the "famous names" the spec, price and performance leaves the competition in the dust. 5 Stars.

This is a massive upgrade over the stock 'router' that comes included with your broadband package. Because it can be 'upgraded' to use OpenWRT, it's very functional as well as powerful. Before I switched to this I was struggling with WiFi connectivity in the garden but this has fixed the problem and meant I could finally retire several redundant access points which never really did what they were supposed to. I can now connect a wireless smart switch to the network at the very end of the front garden which is a few hundred meters away from the device. Obviously the connection isn't 100% at this distance but it's certainly good enough to turn the driveway lights on and off via WiFi. Yes it is more complicated to use than your stock router but that's because it can do so much more. I think it's excellent value for money considering how much I'd previously spent on access points that didn't reach as far.

I’ve been using the Flint 2 mostly for VPN at home and it’s been great. Setup was simple; I got WireGuard up and running pretty quickly. The speeds are solid and I haven’t noticed any slowdowns even with multiple devices connected.Wi-Fi coverage is strong throughout the house and the signal stays stable. I also like that it has 2.5G ports, which are a nice bonus if you’re doing any heavy data transfers or just want fast wired connections.One feature I really like is the built-in AdGuard Home support. It blocks ads and trackers across the whole network so I don’t have to mess with browser extensions on every device. It’s super useful for a cleaner, faster browsing experience and for keeping things a bit more private.What I appreciate most is the flexibility. It runs on OpenWrt, so if you’re into tweaking settings or setting up custom configurations, it gives you the room to do that. That said, it still works great out of the box if you don’t want to mess with anything.Overall, it does exactly what I need: fast, reliable, and secure VPN for home use with a few extra features that make a real difference. Would recommend.

Great router - saved me the daily frustration of trying to use Virgin Media broadband, with the connection being intermittent and not reaching certain areas of a 2-bedroom flat. It was a pain in my side constantly. I finally decided I’ve had enough and looked at options, decided on replacing the VM router with this, and the WiFi has been fine ever since - I can use it in any place in the home and it never drops, it does not take 1 minute to load one single instagram short or story (!!!), and I now don’t need to worry anymore about not being able to join my work meetings remote, when I’m supposed to be having a 250GB fast connection that I’m paying £65 pm for. Virgin Media is a Ridiculous company. Anyway, if you want to actually be as close as possible to having good internet in this country, try this router. My daily stress level has been reduced significantly and I don’t remember the last time I was stressed about internet.

Just buy it! It's a lot of router for the money and it hits that sweet spot of being very easy to set up whilst giving power users all the options and flexibility they could ever want. Wifi perfromance absolutley smashes my old NightHawk R8000 (runninig FreshTomato) even not factoring in the WiFi 6 standard. VPN client and Host both the easiest to set up on any device I have ever used and both work flawlessly. Stock firmware is fantastic and I like that they made accessing LuCI easy. One month later and I had to add to the review, it's crazy good still, just finding more usefull features. Also it's been super stable. Buy it!

Not easily impressed but this router impressed me.Too much positives to list, negatives you hear about are mostly gone due to FW updates, as I didn't face any of the known issues.Ohhhh, and be careful, I went for this instead of Flint 3 for the 4x4, so newer is not necessarily better!
