Another vote for GL.inet devices here, I've got a couple of Mango's and a couple of Creta's. Both low end devices, but their wifi coverage is great for the price and size of device, and they're working well for me as Wifi-VPN gateways, although I don't push a lot of bandwidth through them.
The more you pay the more bandwidth they can handle, depends on how / where / why of the implementation.
- chatmasta 4y agoGL.inet devices are convenient and user friendly, but they run (by default at least) an outdated fork of OpenWRT and have issues with overheating.
- webmobdev 4y agoNote also to actually research the GL.iNet router model before purchasing - they falsely label some routers as "official openwrt". For example, the GL-SF1200 is listed as an OpenWRT router by them but some of the binaries on it, run on an outdated Linux kernel, and have not been fully made available to the public by the manufacturers of the Chinese SoC used on it. Thus, it is unlikely to run any OpenWRT fork or even receive opensource updates - https://forum.openwrt.org/t/how-do-gl-inet-devices-become-supported-by-official-openwrt-releases/103883 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/how-do-gl-inet-devices-become-su...
