@lehtimaeki I have a #firewalla Gold which does the same thing as a PiHole, amongst other things. That is a game changer! That's also one of the reasons why I'm always VPNed home when I'm on my mobile connection, this way, I enjoy a less cluttered, more private experience all the time
I have a #Firewalla that takes care of my all network and it's behind my ISP router. I also use my Firewalla as a #Wireguard server so I can use a VPN when I'm outside. Yet, whenever I tried to connect from my LAN to Wireguard, my phone's network would not work anymore. I figured out yesterday that the issue is my tunnel is using the DynDNS address provided by Firewalla and therefore the public address. Adding a custom DNS entry to point to the local address when inside my LAN fixes the issue!
Does anyone out there have a #Firewalla (Gold) that I can ask a question of?
The question would be this: I have my 1st #WAN (of multi-wan) as cable modem. That has a static-ish PUBLIC IP. The 2nd #WAN is #TMobile's 5g gateway (currently set as failover-only) which Firewalla sees as Multi-nat'd.
I want to know if firewalla can #VPN ONLY THROUGH 5G (2nd) WAN so I can do true multi-wan with a public IP. ... ie: tunnel over the 5g connection to a paid-for-#VPN.
Please re-toot if possible.
THX!
Anyone out there successfully get a #NordVPN #Nordlynx (#Wireguard) profile working on their #Firewalla Purple? I tried https://github.com/vashishkov/firewalla-nordlynx and a manual config as well but no dice, none of them will actually connect. I hear tell Wireguard is much faster than #OpenVPN and want to give it a try.
Anyone know how to Kitten proof an internet connection?
Woke up with my #firewalla and switch on the floor.
#firewalla makes some pretty awesome networking stuff.
Want to keep the British Men of Letters from remotely taking over your lair? I recommend the Firewalla Gold (https://firewalla.com/) firewall and router. Simple and powerful internet and cybersecurity protection.

There are some OpenVPN recommendations in here to avoid having your DNS leaked but another good solution is to run Unbound network-wide. Firewalla has it built into their firewall and it works without issue.

What are your thoughts on #firewalla?
I’ve now had a Firewalla router running for all of an hour and… holy cow y’all, this thing is incredible.
Not only did it “just work” with my janky home network setup—sliding seamlessly between my ISP modem and my mesh nodes—but the granularity of network control it offers is *staggering*.
Cheers to the #Firewalla folks, they put together one hell of a product 👏
If you want to improve your home network security, I'd like to recommend Firewalla. I am not affiliated with the company in any way, but I have been using their Firewalla Gold firewall for a while now and couldn't be happier. It provides powerful network security and is pretty easy to use; for more advanced users you can even get directly into the Linux and run things like Docker containers. Pricey, but worth it.
Finally ponied up for a #Firewalla and put the #TP-Link #Deco units in AP mode. I cannot stress enough how horrible the Deco platform is as a router. Everything I was unable to do with the Deco is configured and working as desired on day one with the Firewalla.
Has anyone used the Firewalla hardware firewall products?
Expensive, but no subscription fees, and the feature list is impressive. Looks like a good alternative router to Unifi?
What gives me a little doubt is they've only been around a few years, and there isn't much discussion about them yet.
If you've used one, what do you think (good or bad)?
@davemark Just a reminder that a firewall/router like #Firewalla would've detected this and allowed you to block the #hisense within hours of it first happening! I rely on #Firewalla!
Self-install AsusWRT-Merlin on Asus router: WireGuard and encrypted DNS are essential, and the firmware comes with more security settings than the typical ISP router. If TrendMicro is trusted, the extra security they offer for Asus routers can be turned on.

Anybody have experience with #firewalla products? Highly interested but having trust issues. 😅
Turns out it was because the Eth ports on the back of the Firewalla router are NOT switched. Poor little Apple box was probably having a hell of a time rejecting unrelated packets!
Put a switch off the router and moved the wired devices over. It’s been perfect since.
Summary: Do not plug consumer devices directly into the unswitched ports on the back of a Firewalla router.
Not sure if this will help anyone, but I just fixed a networking problem that has plagued us for a long time. Our #AppleTV was being really really flaky. Complaining about there being no network when there was. The #HomePods attached to it would get thrown off constantly. It was a very non-Apple experience. But I could never diagnose it.
It was plugged into the back of the #Firewalla router.
Recently I noticed a new event log in the router app that showed that Eth port crapping out constantly.
