    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    Today my cable modem ran into an issue with DHCP that required a reboot of the modem. After I rebooted the modem, I also rebooted the router. My custom VPN Director rules disappeared. The only rules still there were the rules YazFi adds. This caused an endless loop with VPNMON thinking it was...

    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    After about 11 hours of running it, things seem pretty good. Issues along the way: VPN Director configuration. This thread already addressed it, so that was an easy fix. Some VPN Client configuration settings weren't correct for my VPN to work correctly. I had to update all clients to the...

    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    I'll give it a try as soon as everyone is off conference calls in the house. But from your description, it looks to meet my requirements perfectly. This is going to let me make more use of VPNMON. Thank you!

    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    I imagine a device on the guest network would lose the connection, but it should automatically reconnect pretty quickly. My main reason for using it is that the guest users would lose all internet now if I used more than one VPN slot when the active one changes. This might cause a blip, but...

    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    Yes, that's the section I'm referring to. In /jffs/addons/YazFi.d/config, I have wlX.0 and wlX.1 use the same VPN connection. I would imagine a scenario where the user can specify which guest networks to include in the change, and then it leaves the rest alone. So, for example, I would only...

    VPNMON VPNMON-R2 v2.0 -Jul 10, 2022- Monitor your VPN connection's Health (Thread locked/closed)

    Would it be possible to have VPNMON-R2 also update a YazFi Guest network(s) to use the active VPN connection?

    Internet status: Disconnected bug in 386.5

    I believe the problem occurs when the router attempts to ping a DNS name to verify connectivity. The problem with this method is that it depends on DNS and internet access, rather than just internet access.

    Entware Looking for a guide on using Entware's Samba v4

    Ok, so it looks like /opt/var/log/samba is supposed to be empty. I reviewed /opt/var/log/log.smbd and found the following: [2022/04/01 13:30:42.116402, 0] ../../source3/smbd/server.c:1790(main) smbd version 4.14.7 started. Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2021 invalid...

    Entware Looking for a guide on using Entware's Samba v4

    Here's what I did: Turn off "Enable Share" under USB Application - Network Place (Samba) Share / Cloud Disk. Install samba4-server: opkg install samba4-server Copy /etc/smb.conf to /opt/etc/samba: cp /etc/smb.conf /opt/etc/samba Restart Samba by running /opt/etc/init.d/S91smb restart Reboot...

    Entware Looking for a guide on using Entware's Samba v4

    I would like to switch to Entware's Samba v4 because I'm hoping the added support for TimeMachine with Samba 4.8 would help resolve my current TimeMachine issues. I tried setting it up, but it didn't work for me, and the instructions at OpenWrt didn't help me. I currently use two additional...

    Internet status: Disconnected bug in 386.5

    I had the same red light and "Disconnected" issue. For me, it happens when I use NordVPN's SmartDNS service. I fixed it by setting "Wan: Use local caching DNS server as system resolver (default: No)" to yes. P.S. The Internet worked fine the entire time, it just claimed not to be connected.

    How to improve Samba speed on Merlin 386.5 AX86U

    FYI - This thread got me looking and it seems RMerlin was aware of the limitation in speed back in 2018.

    Tutorial How to monitor DNS traffic in real-time

    In addition to this, it also gets a bit "fuzzy" when you consider streaming services. It seems they perform some sort of check that uses the router's DNS location to determine your geographic location.

    Based on the speed at which you tried, it must have been fairly quick and painless.

    That could be it. I'm running MacOS and get the same speeds as csmanul.

    How to improve Samba speed on Merlin 386.5 AX86U

    I haven't done this, and what I'm linking to is an old thread, but could the older version of Samba cause performance issues on some computers? I'm sure a lot of things changed since 23 Feb 2015. Samba is currently on version 4.16.0 and entware has version 4.14.7 available. I don't know the...

    DNS problem with VPN on AC86U

    I recommend that you set "Accept DNS Configuration" to "Disabled." Doing so ensures that the DNS assigned is the one you specify. Next, you have the Apple TV set to use Router in DNSfilter, but you also have Global set to Router. That is redundant. Since you only want one device to use the VPN...

    Use VPN Exclusive DNS and Local DNS

    I'll bookmark this in case my needs change in the future; for now, it seems my streaming needs are met without forcing the DNS through the VPN.
