Not all wifi 7 routers have 3 bands. I actually bought the better version of this router for the same price off Aliexpress about 10 days ago, and it does have 3 bands, 2.4, 5, and 6.

Thanks, how's the distance? I have a 3500 sqft home but most of it is a loft. I currently have a linksys mesh system that is not working great, wondering if its worth the upgrade.

If buying from AE (or anywhere these days) is there a way to check if your unit is bugged with spyware or anything?

It uses openwrt. The OS isn't bugged. All underlying hardware is bugged. It's called ring -3, below the bios level. Usually running a minix derivative. What the FCC doesn't like is that the CCP is bugging you instead of the NSA.

This is last call for the next few years, btw. Same with your pre-2027 cars.

Yes, use the router while transferring Bitcoin. If you have any Bitcoin 7 days later you have a clean router.

I have their AC1200 (https://www.gl-inet.com/en-us/pro...gl-sft1200) travel router for my own research projects - use it as a wifi proxy (broadcasts its own SSID and relays to an existing SSID) as well as cellular tethering - Both work amazingly well.
