I just bought this router to replace the Flint 2. I had very high expectations for this router, but unfortunately, after trying it out, the Wi-Fi is truly disappointing, despite the four antennas. I have a very small apartment; in the bathroom, for example, the Wi-Fi is terrible. With the Flint 2, I could get 600 MB in that area (I have a 1000/200 fiber connection), but now it barely gets 50 MB. Even the router my carrier gave me works better than this one. Why, I wonder, is a $200 router so disappointing? Is there a firmware issue? I hope it's a firmware issue and not a hardware issue. Developers, if you're reading this: release an update to improve the Wi-Fi, because this is really too bad.

Since you have experience with this brand and it doesn’t sound like a user problem, I would say you have a lemon of a product. It happens. Get a replacement. My Flint 3 worked fine out of the box (900Mbs).
Hello dear, Flint 3 is not a good replacement of Flint 2 if you want wifi performance (less coverage, only 2x2 vs 4x4, etc). I gave up with the 3 and i came back to the 2. It's “only dual band” but for my scenario is a lot better.
Maybe a future Flint 4 can “destroy” the powerful Flint 2, we have to wait
