Week of reminder for our monthly meetup.
This Wednesday, June 18th at 7pm. Normal place of @impropercity. It seems like we will have some heat, so come help me drink a beer.
I finally decided on my old router for stickers. Come offer your best sticker tribute to #DDWRT router
I am copying @bouldersec, just did not have any better ideas… also not as vintage of a router as their OG.

Silly name, but the #pihole is a great way to block ads on every device in your home. If anyone needs any tips to get started let me know.

The hardware was refurbished, including a quick analysis of the equipment. I quickly realized that modern and up-to-date network firewall firmware could be installed on both devices without much effort and high costs. Since #BSDRP , #OPNSense and #pfSense no longer support x86 (i586/i686) architectures, the choice fell on the current #OpenWrt and #DDWRT versions for x86 (i586/i686) architectures. 2/3
Habe heute Vormittag im Track "#Backup" einen Vortrag "Alles backupen mit Rsnapshot" auf den #clt2025 gehalten. Es ging um das Programm #Rsnapshot und darum, wie man mit Shell Tools oder einfachen #Perl-Skripen u.ä. regelmäßige Backups von Dingen automatisieren kann, die nicht dafür gemacht sind. Beispielsweise #DDWRT und #Fritzbox OS.

A decade ago I modified a standard US 110V wall outlet so that it contained a hidden wifi hotspot. Thus, using #ddwrt open source software for routers, I could create a low bandwidth wifi-network that reached the basement of my 6-story building.
I wanted to know when the clothes dryer was done. But, it was more than that—
The other possible solution was to buy a SIM card and make the monitor a cellular device. This (I want to stress) was over a decade ago 2009.

Ставил DD-WRT, на старенький TP-Link.
Работает, настроил раздачу как ретранслятора. Но фактически там есть реальный клиент и виртуальная точка доступа.
Для того, чтобы всё сработало, надо было выставить все галки на WPA и со стороны шифрования, AES и TKIP
Установка простая была, через меню обновления в штатной прошивке.
Будем развлекаться
#FreshTomato мне нравится всё больше... но это после нескольких часов изучения. #DDWRT проще и понятнее, но умеет меньше штук.
I was able to restore it back to operational state, hooray! 🥳
Steps:
1. Flashed #ddwrt on top of it based on these instructions: https://youtu.be/gmn6Di3GbZM
2. Since no webrevert file is available for my model I used the one for different model (tl-wr941nd_v2_v3), which successfully bricked the device 🤓
3. Then I have restored it with the original firmware using TFTP with these instructions: https://milankragujevic.com/restore-a-bricked-tp-link-router-with-tftp
Now I have no more openwrt but I have my 4G back 😌

Good for flashing the SPI on IBM Thinkpads -->

Remotely turning on the lights / embedded controler...
...as a lightweight network node
Iodine server (for dns and proxy, captive portals, etc) but ... what is the minimum for a #pihole or #ddwrt raspi router?

I want to use a slightly older router to create a wifi access point on the 2nd floor of my house since coverage up there is insufficient for zoom meetings.
What kind of ethernet cable should I get to run from the primary router to the secondary router and what vendors do you trust to give a good product at a fair price?
The primary is a linksys bought a couple years ago, and the 2nd is older linksys with ddwrt.

@simsus oder besser, eine freie aktuelle firmware wie #ddwrt https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Category:Asus_guides oder #openwrt https://openwrt.org/toh/asus/start aufspielen.
Something I pride myself on is that my router usually can stay up until it starts having issues and needs to be rebooted, we lose power, or I reboot it for whatever reason. It having so many issues with Shortcut Forwarding Engine after updating it recently made me sad. This router will have been here for a decade in at least a few months or so and I bought it specifically so I could run DD-WRT. Long uptime isn't inherently good, but it being able to be long makes me feel good.
I think I got the router to stop rebooting by turning off the Shortcut Forwarding Engine. More recent threads in the DD-WRT forums mentioned it was still an issue.
