Hunor DoriI have a small NZXT PC case and a 2U graphics card covers all of the PCI-e brackets.
To mount #glinet ATX board, I had to design an adapter. One of the unused 2.5" drive mounts are the perfect place for this. #kvm #3dprinting
Lord Alan of Chaol GhleannI've recently started to play around with #GLiNet devices; I've now got the Flint 2 as my home router (I decided to upgrade when I was switching ISP) and it's been great. I also have a couple of travel routers but my favourite one is the Slate 7 (although in my opinion, the Beryl AX is just as useful in real-world travel scenarios). The screen on the Slate 7 is good to use as a clock in a hotel room at night and for displaying a QR code to join the relevant wifi network it's created.
These travel routers work very well when you find a LAN port to connect them to (even stealing the telephone or TV LAN connection works well).
I've set the routers up as Wireguard clients and although the Flint 2 can act as a Wireguard server (the UI is very nice), I worry about having it cope with this as well as routing other internet traffic. Instead, I have a Wireguard server running on one of my Linux servers.

A nice GL.iNet Flint 2 (GL-MT6000)
I haven't decided yet whether I'll stay with the stock/stable firmware from GL.iNet (based on OpenWrt 21.02-SNAPSHOT :v), Or switch to the one based on OpenWrt 24... Or go to the Vanilla OpenWrt firmware.
(I'm open to suggestions)
But so far... WiFi is at least 10x faster with a quick test compared to my ISP box :o
Time to do some proper testing... And then plug internet directly to it :D
selfhosting.couchsurfingBeryl 7 (dual-band WiFi 7 travel router) is also now available, which claims ~1Gbps Wireguard and OpenVPN performance, with a MediaTek CPU:
https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mt3600be/
while it looks like Beryl 7 will launch with firmware based on a proprietary SDK based on OpenWrt 21.02, the fact that it's a MediaTek CPU and based on prior history with #GLiNet, the case is promising for future support for a version of GLi's firmware based on recent OpenWrt, and eventual mainline #OpenWrt support.
for what it's worth, WiFi 7 support on OpenWrt isn't exactly fully baked yet with other hardware either.
I'm very interested in this one, as I use Beryl AX freqeuently while traveling and it works well. I just wish Beryl 7 was tri-band... and available in other colors.
GL.iNet Mudi 7 specs are out and it's now available for pre-order ($319, down from a $399 price target for general release), to ship in April.
https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-e5800/
noteworthy details:
* 5G and 4G, 6x internal and optional 2x external antennas
* dual SIM support
* tri-band WiFi 7, 1x 2.5GbE port
* 600Mbps Wireguard and 700Mbps OpenVPN
* USB type-C tethering and OTG
* quad-core Qualcomm CPU
* 2GB RAM and 8GB eMMC
* up to 13.5h battery life and USB-PD fast charge
given that it's a Qualcomm CPU I would not expect mainline OpenWrt support any time real soon, but it will be running GL.iNet's build of OpenWrt + their software, and should have access to most packages available on vanilla OpenWrt.
based on my experiences with #GLiNet I would wait for the firmware to stabilize before buying this, with the expectation that increasing competition in the travel router space will push that $399 price target down over time.

Shawn WebbOne feature I would like added to the #GLiNet #CometPro is #IPv6 support in the web UI.
The device runs a version of #Linux that supports IPv6, and sets a link-local address up.
That means the only thing that's missing is the web UI integration (there for IPv4 already, so shouldn't be difficult to implement.)
LimpingНачинаю новые эксперименты на OpenWRT 24.10.5
Теперь в приоритете балансировка.
mwan3, чтобы роутил трафик через Ethernet + USB-modem + WiFi tethering, как минимум просто с переключением, но лучше бы по geo-asset по разным приоритетам.
Ну то-есть по-правде мне нужна не настоящая балансировка, с сопутствующими траблами, а всё-таки попроще, роутинг.
Всякие обходы и подкопы пока вешать не буду, потом.

Was macht so ein GL-MT300N-v2 von Gl.iNet so besonders? Was ist der Einsatzgebiet? Als #Repeater kann das Teil nicht wirklich verwendet werden. Schon mal gleich gar nicht, wenn auch ein #VPN auf dem Ding zum Einsatz kommt. Dafür ist das Gerät zu schwach. Preislich liegt es dennoch bei 31€ und mehr.
scuttlebutt on the #GLiNet Mudi 7 tri-band 5G travel router is that they are trying to launch it by the end of first quarter and it may launch at a price of about $370
that's too expensive for me, but their firmwares tend to be rough at first release, so I'm comfortable waiting a while before worrying about upgrading my old Spitz v2 ... I don't use these cellular devices a lot (though Mudi 7 having a battery could change that) but when I need them, I really need them, so it's that kind of a thing.
