    OpenVPN Client - PIA (Private Internet Access)

    a box with a CPU with AES-NI running pfsense will do high speed openvpn. mine will theoretically do 347mbit/s with AES-256-CBC. You can still use your wifi router as an access point behind such a router/gateway. credit goes to: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=105238.msg616743#msg616743

    Testing VPN Killswitch

    if the AirVPN config is putting the explicit exit notify line in the custom config, remove it. it causes problems even though Merlin has tried to work out those bugs.

    Testing VPN Killswitch

    if using policy based routing and the option to block routed clients if the tunnel is down the "kill switch" works. when setup like this if you turn off the VPN client manually VPN tunnel routed clients will be unable to access the internet. if it's not working that way there's a problem...

    How to access cable modem dashboard, when it's behind router?

    I couldn't connect to my cable modem because of an openvpn client policy routing rule forcing all LAN clients through the VPN. I had to create a separate rule allowing lan clients to reach 192.168.100.1 via the WAN.

    Policy-based routing

    remember you can insert IP ranges e.g. 192.168.178.0/24 to route to either the WAN or VPN. then rules for individual IP addresses to create exceptions to the IP range rule.

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    I have not used it from China. But, there are some who do in their forum. It's a gamble whether it will work or not. I think some VPN IP addresses are blocked so you won't even be able to connect. But, you should be able to get a free trial so you can test.

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    you might give AirVPN a try. They offer openvpn through an SSL tunnel. Since we can install entware you can then install stunnel to run the SSL tunnel. just download config files for linux, not router.

    Preserving entware after factory reset [Solved]

    I'm still using 378.55 which doesn't have that option. I've been waiting for the wifi kinks of the AC68 firmware to get worked out.

    Preserving entware after factory reset [Solved]

    yes, backup and restore the jffs scripts. I guess there is an automated tool that does this but I just do it manually.

    OpenVPN performance

    I just wanted to chime in here speaking with regard to CTF and openvpn client usage on my AC68. I disabled CTF long ago because when enabled I noticed that I was getting lots of "leaks" around the VPN tunnel. These "leaks" were connections that were established prior to VPN tunnel creation...

    How to disable Windows 10 tracking using ipset + Entware

    looks right to me. you can also use the command ipset -L eventually you should see a list of IP addresses that were blocked.

    PIA setup for multiple client instances and multiple devices

    I haven't used multiple openvpn clients but it should work. just make sure you're specifying different LAN devices for each client. I believe the conflict arises when you're telling both client policies to route the same LAN device. I do not know if overlapping devices will work if the...

    Bypass OpenVPN for certain websites

    yes, policy routing mode allows you to do this. read in the firmware documentation.

    Shortcuts for activating/deactivating VPN would be nice.

    that's because L2TP is broke on these routers and isn't actually encrypting. it's nothing more than a proxy. anyway, this is a lame request. you should be thankful you have a web GUI and don't have to rely on SSH.

    TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds
