“The GL.iNet GL-AX1800 Flint is a capable travel WiFi 6 router with excellent OpenWrt support and low power draw, but at the current price of $115.81 it's significantly above the 30-day average of $66.18, making it a poor value proposition—expert consensus rates it mediocre at this price despite decent overall performance.”
