    Is the adblocker on this thing any good?

    Looking for a cheap way to block ads on the smart TV / non-PC devices.

      • Merlict on 06/02/2025 - 11:37

        Not free because I don't have a Pi and only have the crap modem that came with TPG.

        • dickbeaver on 06/02/2025 - 11:41

          You don't need a Pi to run either, multiple options including docker

          • 0jay on 06/02/2025 - 12:11

            @dickbeaver: but much recommending docker when we don't have a full spec sheet for this hardware

              @0jay: I suspect @dickbeaver is suggesting they don't need a new router to run pi-hole but likely can run it on an existing device

                @theguyrules: my tapo smartplugs did not work well with my deco router when i pointed the http dns of the deco router to a VM running docker with adgaurd home.

                but it works fine if the adguard home is in the router before the deco AP

        • Limbot on 06/02/2025 - 13:23

          Free and on router under OpenWRT. No fancy interface or anything but does the job :)

      I run a glinet brum2 with agduard.

      you're not gonna block in-video ads
      but you'll block website ads

      and you need to self manage the block list because sometimes not enough things are blocked, and sometimes suddenly you cant check out on woolies app because they moved their services to something that you already blocked, so you need to figure out exclusions etc.

      I imagine this is the same for all DNS based blockers.

      and it does not really slow down internet

  • FoxJump on 06/02/2025 - 11:33

    i was going to get one, but then i read it wont support "mesh"

    • Thrifty McGifty on 06/02/2025 - 12:33

      If it runs openwrt, can't it still do mesh? Or are you talking about the 6GHz wireless backhaul? (In which case I don't mind because I've got ethernet around the house.)

      Was about to setup opnsense on an old NUC connected to a wifi5 TP-Link router as an AP, but wondering if this will be better and less work.

      • FoxJump on 06/02/2025 - 12:39

        mesh is strictly doing wireless backhaul. (regardless of frequency)

        then theres roaming, which doesnt require mesh

        you have eth backhaul, you dont need mesh, you want roaming. this should have roaming

        • Krishg on 06/02/2025 - 13:54

          No, not true. The difference between mesh and a collection of APs comes down to how the nodes/APs are managed; mesh - one configuration for all nodes and they balance the power, bunch of APs - configured separately. Roaming can exist with or without mesh, as it is a matter of how the device switches from one node/AP to another.

          Mesh Backhauls can be wired or wireless.

      • Averell on 06/02/2025 - 13:22

        It seems this B3000 doesn't have the public OpenWrt support, so we will be stuck with the build that GL.inet created

  • Thayer on 06/02/2025 - 11:50

    Does this support power delivery via USB-C?

    • hsc21 on 06/02/2025 - 11:52

      No. DC adapter only.

  • 0jay on 06/02/2025 - 12:10

    photoframe's a cute idea

    no mention of processor or ram

    • Thrifty McGifty on 06/02/2025 - 12:31

      OP says:

      it's not actually a digital photoframe. it's a rectangle that you can stick a photo to

  • Andy Nguyen on 06/02/2025 - 13:11

    Can I use this with PureVPN?

    • r0nmac on 06/02/2025 - 13:39

      I dont see why not. I have used another router with TorGuard wg. The best part is you can setup to only route guest wifi traffic over VPN. That gives best of both worlds.

    • mansunz on 06/02/2025 - 13:50

      Apparently yes. I was asking the same question and found out I should be able to connect via Wire guard protocol. I ordered one as well

  • CheapWrangler on 06/02/2025 - 13:59

    Could you use this router with100/20mbps internet to stream games from PC to TV wirelesly in the same house? Is there noticable lag? Could you use this to do Steam VR wirelessly to a Quest 2?

    • Thiefsie on 06/02/2025 - 14:03

      Yes to both, and the NBN is irrelevant in that case. There will be latency and YMMV.
      You have a harder time with the controller/s when streaming PC to TV without a device. Best done with a steamlink/steamdeck/shield/etc.
      Also, most TVs only have 100Mb ethernet (lol) so better to go wi-fi direct to the TV, or use a device via ethernet with a gigabit+ speed.
      In both cases you will want the PC connected via cable to the router.

  • danielh on 06/02/2025 - 14:15

    I was excited until I realised that it was just a router with a fancy picture frame that it can be attached to. I like how it has a high Wireguard upload speed as I currently use my very old GL-AR750 as the home WG server but since my upload speed is a paltry 50MBps this is not a real issue for me while traveling outside of home.

    That being said, if you do not already have something like this for a Wireguard server, it would be a nice entry price point to getting into this space. I would definitely buy this if my home WG server (GL-AR750) was not working (FYI it has been working 24/7 for over 4 years for me so happy with build quality for their products).
