Así quedó listo para entrar en producción mi nuevo router LAN

Imagen de un router negro con 8 antenas externas. El router está situado sobre una mesa de madera clara, con un portátil y una figura de Batman de juguete en el fondo. El router tiene varios puertos, incluyendo puertos USB, SFP, WAN y LAN, visibles en la parte trasera. El logotipo de la marca "Bpi" del router es visible en la parte superior.

Me ha gustado OpenWRT. Llevaba años usando DD-WRT, pero como el último tiempo he aprendido mucho más a usar linux me parece que el primero es mucho más flexible y personalizable. La GUI Luci va muy bien.

#OpenWRT #DDWRT #Linux

Así va mi proyecto de actualización del router WiFi en mi departamento. Tuve que "entrar a picar" para instalar un pequeño extractor noctua, muy silencioso, en la tapa de la carcasa. También hice un pequeño script para controlar la velocidad y así quede aún más silencioso.

Una placa de circuito azul con numerosos componentes electrónicos está montada en una carcasa negra. La placa tiene varios conectores, cables y chips visibles. Se observa un pequeño ventilador cuadrado de color beige conectado a la carcasa. Cuatro antenas negras están conectadas a la parte posterior de la carcasa. La carcasa está parcialmente abierta, mostrando el interior. Una parte de la carcasa superior se encuentra separada, mostrando una superficie negra lisa.

Una placa negra rectangular con un pequeño ventilador cuadrado de color beige y marrón está conectado a ella por medio de un cable. Se ve parte de un dispositivo electrónico de color azul oscuro con numerosos cables y componentes en la parte inferior derecha de la imagen. El dispositivo parece ser una tarjeta de circuito. La placa negra y el dispositivo electrónico están sobre una superficie de madera clara.

Networking plans:
* Install unbound and cut out the DoH providers that I currently use
* Purchase a VPS and spin up headscale on it
* Install tailscale on my router and encrypt traffic from my ISP

Changing routers to increase RAM from 128 MB -> 512 MB opens the door for things that I can do, but w/ my #OpenWrt router, but I'm also realizing that some of the functionality just isn't as relevant since there's not a lot of traffic/speed on my device. Good projects to tackle when I'm bored tho 🤷🏾‍♂️

@kenji Ob das so gut ist, wäre noch abzuwarten. Die Richtlinie könnte das Aus für #opensource WLAN Lösungen wie z.B. #OpenWRT bedeuten. Das wäre ein Rückschritt in Hinblick auf die IT-Sicherheit.

@vax_ I concur 100%

Reading about it's hard to find a definitive list of affected routers but this link mentions the 3 I mentioned: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/botnet-hacks-9-000-plus-asus-routers-to-add-persistent-ssh-backdoor/

I'm even recommending people get ones from GL-INET which supports #OpenWRT out of the box - although I still prefer to install the stock OpenWRT from the OpenWRT site on GL-INET devices instead of the slightly "slick UI" version of OpenWRT that GL-INET provide with the device.

In another post I just purchased an #OpenWRTOne to check it out - since I'm all sorted at home with my #VyOS firewall and #Unifi wifi I'm going to upgrade my mum's home internet with the OpenWRT One 🙂

edit: add GL-INET link https://www.gl-inet.com/support/firmware-versions/

@nemo Will #OpenWRT help?

In unserer Werkstatt gibt es nun auch WLAN. Dank eines alten TP Link Routers auf den ich #OpenWRT installiert habe und der nun als Repeater dient 😇

This make me very happy I flashed #OpenWRT on my new Asus a week or so ago.

It would make a lot more sense if router manufacturers just funded the OpenWRT project and made sure their devices supported mainline.

Now I have powered it up. So far So Good!

Power use is quite low, the two below readings made with the device essentially idle, and with one wired and one wifi client pulling data "full blast"..

At the wall (including PSU overhead) these are about 4.5 and 8 watts use.

They give us no choice but to flash #OpenWRT

#OpenWRTOne in the house.

just arrived. looks nice. haven't powered it up yet.

@arstechnica "To remove the backdoor, infected users should remove the key and the port setting."

Or should maybe flash the device with an #OpenWrt firmware, if available? That should be the best way to get rid of the backdoor. If someone has SSH/root access then they could also hide that key in the web UI...

Anyone knows how I can setup my #openWRT #router to act as a #VPN connected to my home system so I can work from anywhere using "cisco anyconnnect" to work?

I am using #NordVPN and it is not working, tried #ExpressVPN and others with the same issue
I need to set up a tunnel on home router or what?

An App that will join your friend into your #selfhosted #VPN by just sharing QR codes.
Based on #OpenWrt

I replaced my old TP-WDR4300 with an #OpenWRT One. It's now my main router, handling VLANs and multiple Wi-Fi access points.

I love OpenWRT, but it's not for the faint of heart. I've locked myself out a couple of times and had to reset and restore from backup. Fortunately, the One is unbrickable.
