The XE75 has 3 access points, but the features are lacking and I feel like the lack of speed on firmware updates is slow and concerning. I’m looking at the GL.iNet GL-MT6000 (Flint 2), and it’s $136. Can anyone with more tech experience comment or give their thoughts/suggestions about this? TIA!


Ah, I wasn’t up to date with the flint 3 issues. From what I gather, they are using some Qualcomm chip that makes life harder.
If you are looking to reflash, it seems flint 2 is defiantly the way to go.
From your original post, it seemed you were looking for more frequent updates, which is why I suggested the newer 3e.
As for technical differences, 3e has WiFi 7. Beside that, quickly skimming the specs pages, I don’t see any other big differences. Is that worthwhile? Probably not.
I wonder if the upcoming flint 4 will have the same Qualcomm chip, or if they do something different. I also worry they are releasing more products than they can sustain long term.
Yeah, I was sad to hear it myself. ☹️ But I also share your concern about them using the same Qualcomm chip for the 4 and to many projects on the burner.
