    OpenVPN policy routing guide?

    I manually switch off the VPN client to change servers, etc and the prohibit default rule is inserted into table 111 as intended. not sure why you're not seeing that. perhaps you have the line "explicit exit notify" in your custom config? That screws things up. Merlin has done some fixes so...

    VPN SET UP

    Beamforming

    When I lived in a masonry house (wifi signals attenuated a lot) beamforming was needed to reach certain areas. I have an AC68 and none of my devices are AC devices. The universal beamforming option obviously does make a difference and I guess some of my 2.4ghz devices may support explicit...

    How to disable Windows 10 tracking using ipset + Entware

    oh, and can anybody explain to this dummy exactly what ipset-dns does? I understand the concept of using iptables to block a request. but the guide says ipset-dns is used to add new unwanted IPs... how exactly?

    How to disable Windows 10 tracking using ipset + Entware

    similarly, I assume the DNS requests sent to 8.8.8.8 (in the default script) go through the openvpn tunnel if it's up? how would I get the script to just use the DNS forced by openvpn knowing that I use two or three different VPN providers from day to day? It can't be a fixed IP but must look...

    OpenVPN performance

    I look at CPU usage using htop (entware). It has nice bar graphs. I can confirm my AC68 overclocked to 1200mhz can do 35mbit/s and only use partial CPU - about 50% each core. Certainly plenty more clock cycles available for faster openvpn. I don't know how much faster as 35mbit is my max...

    Traffic Analyzer - Statistic, no data

    Well, I've been lazy until now. Finally I tried IE instead of firefox on the traffic monitor page. It all works as expected. So, this seems to be a firefox only problem. :-(

    Traffic Analyzer - Statistic, no data

    For me the real-time traffic monitor shows blank. But, last 24 hours, daily, monthly show data properly. I have per-device monitoring turned on as well, and there the real-time is also blank while the daily and monthly work as expected. I have my traffic history saved to a custom location...

    certificate override feature request

    good move - key is only 1024 bit RSA (.55 firmware) can you point me to a good place where I can learn how to generate my own cert and key for this?

    Policy-based ruling VPN block outside access, how to fix it?

    to test things just paste the iptables at the command line of your SSH session. then you can check in system log/port forwarding to make sure it worked. so the remote port and local port for your AirVPN forwarded port is 11486? Be sure that you're trying to access you NAS on that port -...

    Policy Based Routing breaks DNS for WAN

    Merlin has commented in other posts that he suggests we use DNS filtering to accomplish what we need. He knows this sort of problem exists with policy routing but couldn't elegantly find a solution as he coded. When you set fixed DNS in the WAN page what DNS did you use? If you were still...

    Slow OpenVPN on AC87r

    you should get faster than 10-20mbit/s with the AC87. I get something over 35mbit/s with my AC68. max I don't know because my line speed is 35mbit/s.

    Best router for OpenVPN (using Merlin)

    the AC56 overclocked will suit your needs - I know it can do greater than 35mbit/s but don't know how much more because my line max is 35. the AC68 (which I use) has the same CPU but better wifi. first, however, you should test speed to your VPN server on your computer. make sure that your...
