Just replaced my old Synology mesh system with this GL-MT6000 and WOW. No more random drops during raids - this thing handles my 40+ smart home gadgets + 3 gaming PCs like a champ. The range? Insane. My backyard now has better WiFi than my living room used to.
Pro tip: Update the firmware IMMEDIATELY. The OpenVPN speed went from 'meh' to 'holy crap' after I did. Getting 850Mbps through WireGuard now - perfect for bypassing regional game server restrictions.
The AdGuard Home feature is lowkey amazing. Blocked 12,000 ads last week alone. No more YouTube prerolls on my smart TV! Setup was stupid easy - just followed their Amazon video while eating pizza.
Only weird thing? The antennas get WARM during long gaming sessions. Not hot enough to fry eggs, but definitely noticeable if you're nerdy enough to touch router antennas (guilty).
10/10 would recommend to anyone who hates their ISP's garbage router. This plus my 2.5G fiber connection = gaming nirvana.
