I'd suggest buying the OpenWRT One. I've bought a bunch, and I think it's terrific.
- picofarad 4mo agoI think the cost is good too? Decent amount of ports, kinda like a boxless mikrotik. I've considered it, if I can get fiber here I will definitely get one for my segment, and maybe my resell segment too.
- binaryturtle 4mo agoI'm waiting for the second version (supposedly has a better number of RJ45; that's where the "One" was a bit limited and an extra switch would have been required in the setup)
- BLKNSLVR 4mo agoI was just looking at the One recently and lamenting it only has two network ports. I would have bought one if it had three. Instead I went with a Gl.inet device with three interfaces.
- microtonal 4mo agoThe One is nice if you want to support the OpenWrt project, but if you want raw power, the GL.iNet Flint 2 (MT6000) is a much better choice. Faster SoC, 1GB RAM, 8GB storage, one more 2.5 GBe port, twice as fast WiFi 6, and also supports vanilla OpenWrt.
- gausswho 4mo agoI've put OpenWRT on the Flint 2, and I've had issues with connectivity that I don't have with OpenWRT on a Linksys router. I need to disconnect and reconnect every so often. I'd read that this is due to the Mediatek modem not being as well supported, but I'm not sure how to diagnose.
- dbgobrrr 4mo agoHave the same router (Flint 2), and had a similar issue in the past. After I configured SSIDs with different names on the radios (i.e. the SSID is either configured on radio0 or radio1, not both), I didn't encounter this anymore. YMMV, but this helped me - perhaps it'll prove useful to you as well. And besides this issue, overall it works great. I recommend this to anyone who asks me about it.
