    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Shows you are using the buggy version that was replaced (previous version) in the newest load. From the readme in 388.2.2 FIXED: dnsmasq may crash if no DNS server is configured (fix backported from dnsmasq upstream)

    OPNsense vs. pfSense CE in 2023, what are your thoughts?

    I took the plunge and converted from ASUS running Merlin to a pfSense router/firewall a month or two ago and I couldn't be more pleased. You no longer need to run the CE edition, a free for home/personal use registration is available. I have had zero issue with IPv6 in my install. Why not...

    Port Forwarding Issue

    I'll note that internal and external ports are configured on BT router, not on ASUS Unless it's needed, disable UPnP

    On the specs for the TP-Link EAP660 HD | Omada WiFi 6 AX3600 and the TP-Link EAP670 | Omada WiFi 6 AX5400 ....

    I'll just chime in here. I installed the Omada controller on a Linux machine, installed 2 EAP670, TL-SG2008P for PoE First, the selected switches did not have 2.5 Gbe to serve the APs. I guess I could have used 2.5 capable injectors or the included power bricks, but power was unavailable. The...

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    Well, I decided against the FWG+ both because I don't want a cloud based config for many reasons and because it doesn't offer the things I want/need. I did take the discount, but passed it along to a friend. What did I do? I decided to listen to @Tech9 and give pfSense another look. So, it is...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    I'm one. I love it as an AP. While I'm not too fussed about updates as it is and will always be behind my router, how long has it been since I bought this? Doesn't seem like it should be EOL.

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    I have to admit, it looks interesting. Except for this in the short manual online: https://community.sophos.com/sophos-xg-firewall/f/recommended-reads/137737/sophos-firewall-home "I would guess the same. It should be i219 and i225/i226 that are not supported"

    Speaking of easy, how do you like using a phone for configuring things? I've got a lot of devices to assign, but, it's a one time thing I guess.

    Ha, well, there's your Firewalla box then!

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    That would be swell. Thanks. I think my previous issue with pf/opn Sense was that the device has a routable IPv6 address from prefix the ISP allocates. It also has a link local fe80 address and for most likely user error reasons, would not allow traffic to pass to either of them. Yeah, port...

    Thanks for that. I did see that as being a workaround if needed. But you can run an updater on any device on your LAN or you can add ddclient into the Firewalla. Either way, you keep the features that the Firewalla relies on their DDNS for but can update your domain as you normally would.

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    No, the questions were can I port forward IPv6 and use other DDNS providers than Firewalla. I agree with you on the hardware and I'm going to get it. As you said, heck of a box for the price even if I don't use the software. If it does pan out stock, cool. If not, I'll likely holler for pfsense...

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    You have some sort of delusion of grandeur don't you? Aren't you the 'Factory reset for everything' guy? Sadly, you fixate on your interpretation of 'discount'. Again, in simple terms for you, my friend (a term you aren't likely familiar with) has a code. This code will allow me to buy a shiny...

    I sent this question to the Firewalla support email address. While the reply was quick enough, it was atrocious. Firewalla (Firewalla) Mar 15, 2023, 15:32 PDT You can install programs to run on the box see Customized Scripting Gold/Gold plus best used in router mode, see Firewalla Router...

    Yeah, unless you do a favor for someone and get a land grant of 5 hectares, damn near impossible for foreigners to buy land. I've seen a lot of 'smooth operators' get fleeced when they have a local 'partner' buy the bar/house/farm for them. But, I had a good run and I moved back to the US for...

    Ha! You'd have to live in Laos with us for 5 long years to qualify. Trust me, it really wouldn't be worth it.

    Firewalla Gold Plus Suitability

    First, nobody is selling their unit. Offering me a discount. No, you gave zero facts. Opinion, and not really even that. Let's just stay with zero fact, zero knowledge of the subject opinion Not what I'm looking for and you'd do well to take a powder.
