Our Verdict
GL.iNet Flint 2 (GL-MT6000)
eero 7
The GL.iNet Flint 2 (GL-MT6000) is a Wi-Fi 6 standalone router, while the eero 7 is a Wi-Fi 7 mesh router. The GL.iNet delivers faster top speeds, has better range, more networking ports, and much more configurable software than the eero, but the eero is much smaller and easier to configure.
