Hello,
I recently purchased a Flint 2 and installed OpenWRT following the instructions at https://openwrt.org/toh/gl.inet/gl-mt6000.
After installation, I configured both the 2.4Mhz and 5Mhz networks to WPA3, renamed them, and set passwords. I changed my ISP's combo modem-router to bridge mode. I also set the country codes for each network to my country (United States).
I ran a speedtest on a whim and noticed my speeds were at 100Mbps. I pay for 600Mbps from my ISP and before OpenWRT I would get that much usually and maybe 300-400Mbps at peak times. I changed the Ethernet cord connecting my router to my modem, that was not the problem.
When I connected via Ethernet from my computer to my modem, bypassing the router entirely, the connection was at the expected ~600Mbps. When I connected to my router, whether wired or wireless, the connection dropped to ~100Mbps. So I assume the router config must be the issue.
Waveform speedtests to substantiate above paragraph: https://imgur.com/a/uaxm5AG
I reviewed other threads on the same issue, and folks were asked to paste results of entering commands into the terminal, which follows here. (I removed passwords and SSIDs, let me know if there is anything else I should delete for privacy.)
