    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    Download a openvpn app. The two most popular on the play store works fine. OpenVPN Connect or OpenVPN for Android both can work fine. It's what you prefer. Go to the router DDNS settings and set up a free domain to your router. Asus offers their own free subdomain.asuscomm.com for example. It's...

    What's the best practice for running non-entware software or scripts on startup?

    Thanks. I chose the right architecture binaries from their github and it works fine in my testing. I'm on aarch64. Fully working.

    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    Yes. Type https://x.x.x.x:8443/ in your browser where x.x.x.x is your routers public ip adress. (connect from your phone mobile connection instead of wifi to come from the internet direction again. If you get a asus login page on your screen, that means you can access your router settings from...

    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    Weeell, if the firmware is up to date the Web GUI should be safe enough if you want that kind of access. Only as a backup plan if your VPN server isn't cooperating when you can't be home to fix it. I'd still move it to a non default port though.

    What's the best practice for running non-entware software or scripts on startup?

    In other words, /jffs/scripts/ have several files I could put said commands I want to run in, which are best for running when rebooting the router? it's for a http(s) server that serves as a file browser.

    Keeping files in /root persistent between reboots?

    Hm okay. I wonder where I'd best install filebrowser.org (HTML based file browser, so technically a http server). /mnt/usb-for-entware/root perhaps? the install script doesn't work, but they have an aarch64 build available to download and run manually. I've gotten it to work in Termux on my phone.

    Keeping files in /root persistent between reboots?

    I'd like to keep some scripts in the default directory for ssh connections (I know it's just a link to /tmp/home/root, which is lost on reboot, but whatever files exist there must be copied from somewhere to /root on boot. (.ash_history, .config, .local and .ssh folders/files in my case) What...

    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    1. That sounds like you haven't checked this setting correctly? Send screenshots of your VPN server settings, both General and Advanced. Blur any sensitive information before you upload of course. I'll take a look at your settings and see what I can do to help. 2. FTP shares are a way to...

    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    Burner phones/computers, always moving around, never staying in the same place twice, all that stuff, be unpredictable etc. I can't think of any software that can't be exploited. It's more in the habits you do online etc. Tor isn't safer than paid VPNs either, since I heard the feds have...

    Is it possible to install WireGuard VPN?

    Personally I'd just wait for Asus/Merlin to implement a just as easy way to setup WG server and client, as they made the OpenVPN server. That takes careful planning, patience and time. (and money, on Asus side.) Use the OpenVPN server and unencrypted FTP shares for the best speeds and security...

    Entware What are your favorite entware packages to install on your routers?

    We all begin as newbies. Just experiment with what you want to try out and you'll get better over time. I'm no scripting genius but I find it very fun to be able to put together what I want with the right motivation and keywords in the search engine. Learn by having fun, dear internet friend...

    Location for transmission related config files for persistent setup between reboots?

    /jffs didn't keep my changed transmission settings and neither did the ones I found in ~/.config/transmission-daemon either.

    How do you stop/start/restart daemons/services on AsusWRT-Merlin?

    Okay, I'm trying scMerlin for now, otherwise rebooting the router is the last resort albeit tedious haha.

    Entware What are your favorite entware packages to install on your routers?

    Holy crap. You got an entire Desktop Environment with X11/Wayland and misc on there or something?

    How do you stop/start/restart daemons/services on AsusWRT-Merlin?

    Are there straightforward commands like 'service' or 'systemctl' transmission-daemon (example) stop|start etc? Or do you use something like cockpit to manage services like that?

    Entware What are your favorite entware packages to install on your routers?

    I too have a love for the following: curl htop (I'm never going back to top after this) screen (best freaking discovery ever for remote work with constant connection timeouts happening) fish (the closest shell I've found to my liking so far, Oh my ZSH! was nice too) nano (pico on some limited...

    How to remove Entware?

    I guess one would have to exclude entware from the source on github and compile the firmware from there.
