Ohhh yeah I remember now, that was way back, so the post looks "outdated"
And that statement from GL-iNet is nonsense since it is not unusual for router users to attach external fans to bring router temperatures into acceptable temperature ranges. (That is almost mandatory with some older ASUS routers.) A temperature readout would actually reduce anxiety if the displayed temperature was acceptable.
I wonder if there is an OpenWRT plugin that would display the temperature.
it was removed in 4.9 and any request to get it back was ignored.
if you need it you can get thermal readings by adding luci-apps.

This is the way.
I m using 4.9.0 beta2 OP24 on Flint2, If i enable SQM or QOS i lost internet connection, on client and router
So what's the plan for the rest of 2026? Is GL.iNet going to migrate all firmware for supported devices to OP24?

I just hope they can update to OP25 and stop releasing beta versions, because the files currently being downloaded are still beta, and they haven't updated any stable versions of OpenWRT in a long time.

Rebooting a couple times per day, I guess it crashes, haven’t had time to investigate. Waiting for an update, possible OP25.
Btw, what’s currently the best GL-iNet AP that is supported by vanilla OP25? Any of the WiFi7 do? Still happy with ATX1800 and MT3000 but looking for an upgrade.
Thank you!

Everything from such manufacturers should be viewed as beta. They do not make corporation level hardware nor software. Wanna stable -use ‘vanila’ OpenWRT and pretent like it’s a non beta 
Everything is beta to be honest.
Gmail was in beta for a decade…. People may remove word beta, but… to be super stable and non beta - it have to pass MANY YEARS and bugs removed from same codebase, not updatig it to anything new. But people will cry adn theya re crying when see v21 as stable So..either new or stable… there is no such thing as new and stable. As a developer that’s my take on it.
I develop app for past 5 years, we do not put beta on it but man..there is SOOO much to fix till this day..cause apps do not stagnate they evolve and every new thing can and sometimes lead to bugs in ‘old and stable’ places.
As for 4.9.0 OP24 im running it, not using ANY of those new features that came in 4.9.0 (and there is a lot of them) and so far it’s the best version. Previuosly i used 4.8.3 OP24.
In 4.8.3 i had massive problems because of fking 2 wan feature.. they should add feature to DISABLE it… it makes so much problems when not used, or maybe ti was just one of the reasons i had a lot of network restarts inside the router, ports being ‘restarted’. and so on.
