UniFi Dream Router 7 vs GL.iNet Flint 3 (GL-BE9300)

The UniFi Dream Router 7 and the GL.iNet Flint 3 are tri-band Wi-Fi 7 routers. They deliver similar wireless performance with excellent top speeds and good range. Both routers have excellent wired connectivity, albeit with slightly different usages in mind. The GL.iNet's five 2.5Gbps ports make it better suited for home users with lots of traditional Ethernet devices. On the other hand, the UniFi has four 2.5Gbps ports and one 10Gbps SFP+ port, making it better suited as a solution for small businesses or homes with a 10Gbps internet connection. Both routers are highly configurable, but take different approaches. The GL.iNet runs OpenWRT, an open-source, Linux-based firmware, while the UniFi can run the company's full suite of proprietary applications.
