GL.iNet Flint 3 Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 Router

The GL.iNet Flint 3 is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router built for homes and small offices that need faster local networking, multi-gig wired ports, and more control than a typical ISP router provides. It combines Wi-Fi 7 across 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz with five 2.5GbE ports, an OpenWrt-based software platform, and built-in tools for VPNs, ad blocking, remote access, and parental controls. Use it when you already have an internet connection and want faster Wi-Fi, better wired networking, and advanced routing features. The Flint 3 is not a cellular gateway. If you need internet from a 4G or 5G SIM card, choose a dedicated cellular router with a built-in modem instead. Connectivity and Platform Wi-Fi: Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be). 2.4 GHz up to 688 Mbps, 5 GHz up to 2882 Mbps, and 6 GHz up to 5765 Mbps, with tri-band MLO support for compatible devices and 2x2 MU-MIMO on every band. Four foldable high-gain external antennas and six front-end modules help improve range and signal quality. Wired: Five 2.5GbE ports, with one WAN and four LAN by default. One LAN port is software-switchable to a second WAN for dual-WAN setups. Multi-WAN failover and load balancing are supported up to 5 Gbps shared. One USB 3.0 Type-A port is included for storage, tethering, or other supported USB devices. Software: OpenWrt 23.05-based firmware with the GL.iNet interface and mobile app. Network modes include router, access point, extender, WDS, and drop-in gateway. Built-in tools include WireGuard and OpenVPN-DCO, client and server VPN modes, AdGuard Home, guest network, Tailscale, ZeroTier, Tor, DDNS, and free remote management through GoodCloud.
