@WickedYoda
When I tested the Flint 3e, I expected to find a less powerful Flint 3, but it
turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The design is even better finished, and
the durability has improved as well, especially for antennas.
@Ludovic C
The Flint 3e stands out for its effortless setup and dependable Wi-Fi 7
performance. Its dual-band connectivity provides excellent speed and coverage,
while the OpenWRT platform offers deep customization for advanced users.
@Salim U
The Flint 3e delivers outstanding performance for home users who need reliable,
high-speed connectivity in challenging environments. The setup was quick and
intuitive, and the device maintained exceptional stability even during peak
usage.
@Martin N
During testing, stability was rock solid. No IoT dropouts, no overheating, and
the beta firmware never once crashed or rebooted. Even under a heavy load
average of 8.16 for hours, the fan didn’t bother spinning up, and the CPU sat
comfortably at around 65°C. That’s impressive thermal behavior for a router with
this much capability.
@Vincent L
Flint 3E is a nice all in one powerhouse of a router. From the fast WiFI speeds
to having Adguard Home and built in VPN capabilities, it can do it all! I'm able
to hit full WiFi speeds maxing out my ISP performance of 1Gbps in all corners of
my apartment, even through walls.
@Kyle F
Flint 3e is for users who want to maximize their 5 GHz network performance today
while gaining some Wi-Fi 7 benefits at a more attractive price point, rather
than investing in the 6 GHz ecosystem.
@AYKUT S
Even in the most remote part of my house the speeds are beyond sufficient. All
of my IOT devices (can't believe how many I now have) are working without issue.
I'm very happy and impressed with the performance with the Flint 3e.
@Lance F
If you're looking for a router that's fast, looks good, and can handle the

speeds are excellent, it covers my whole house, and it's been rock solid
reliable. Really happy with this upgrade!
