    Thanks, that's what I needed to hear

    Entware Entware bus error

    Cheers. Would it be a bad idea to connect an external SSD instead of a USB stick?

    Entware Entware bus error

    AC68U with 384.19 I've used the web interface recently to format JFFS upon next boot to no avail. Will look at a replacement drive now

    Entware Entware bus error

    Things took a strange turn: Entware won't run anymore, only prompting a Bus error Amtm also has problems running properly. Diversion throws a bunch of /opt/bin/diversion: line 46: /opt/bin/grep: Accessing a corrupted shared library Upgrading Entware from Amtm fails, I can see Bus error pop...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    https://github.com/koolshare/koolshare.github.io Last commit 2 days ago. Am I missing something?

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    I assume you are talking about the koolshare fork? I completely understand your frustration with this behaviour. Even though I don't know anything about what it takes to comply with the GPL, all I can say from my personal experience: that's such a Chinese thing. Most of these guys are simply...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    It is indeed interesting and they are moving at a rapid pace. I'll install the newest release on the weekend. They have included Merlin's 380.61 changes and added some of their own changes. Not 100% sure if it's their own effort or Merlin's but for instance htop is now included. I guess it makes...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    PM sent. They have more features but they mostly center around "scientific" connectivity, if you catch my drift. There is a plugin system and you can download the kcptun module there. Again, most plugins are centered around connectivity. There are also things that allow you to rename your WiFi...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Usually, this site has pretty good and recent information. Kunming is supposed to be beautiful with great weather. Unfortunately, I haven't made it there yet. But I think it'd be worth the trouble. Have a look Back to topic: Shounak De, do you want the binaries for client or server? You have...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    For everyone living under the GFW try out $$ over kcptun. This is a good starting point. However, the G20 summit does not really help with anything (except for occasional Youtube access). If you want to try out I'd wait until it's over. I'm waiting to fire up a new VPS in a strategic location...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    My pleasure, @Shounak De I updated the kcptun client plugin on the router yesterday. It now has a couple of DNS options integrated so now I'm sending my foreign requests through DNSCrypt (OpenDNS makes everything a lot faster when compared to CN DNS) and local ones go through Ali. That works...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    I actually bit the bullet and installed a Chinese mod of Merlin's firmware that has everything integrated. SS/SSR, GFWlist, CNroute, etc. It has an auto updater of everything integrated (binaries, lists) and works really well. This is how I learned about kcptun in the first place. You can find...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    I've been running ss for a while now and it is definitely better than any VPN I've tested so far. The integration with gfwlist works great and I can easily tune which traffic should be tunneled. The Android client is amazing, I hardly notice any battery drain. Recently I've tested kcptun which...

    [Tutorial] Plex VPN Bypass

    I do mean the actual torrent traffic since my VPN only has a handful of P2P servers and I hardly use them due to speed issues. I guess it depends on the country you are in if you want torrents to go through VPN or ISP...

    [Tutorial] Plex VPN Bypass

    This is a very interesting and helpful tutorial. Thanks for that! While I haven't looked into it in detail I was wondering if the same scheme could be applied to my scenario: I am trying to exclude the transmission daemon from the VPN. Could this work with just minor changes or does it require...

    Dedicate 1 SSID for VPN and 1 SSID for usual with Asuswrt-merlin

    Very interesting question and I'd be happy to see a proper, beginner-friendly guide for this too. I am not in desperate need since I am running Astrill's (VPN provider) dedicated applet on the router. My quick and dirty solution is to exclude the 5GHz WiFi from the VPN (through the applet). The...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Ok, thanks for the input. Verdict: Astrill is pretty much dead, I second that. It's not clear if they will recover. Tbh, I wouldn't even be surprised if they had just given up the constant fight against the GFW and just cashed out. Or they have lost their guanxi with the regulators here...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Offtopic: Astrill is still basically down for me. Speed test responds for CN Optimised 3 as the only server. Ping is a laughable 1335ms and speed is 38 kbps. I cannot open a single page on OpenWeb, OpenVPN does not connect. My router at home sometimes manages to squeeze a bit out of OpenVPN but...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    ˆ^this. Free apps on my work computer. My company's IT is a joke and they probably only know Astrill so free apps work better at the moment and OpenVPN and Astrill show signs of betterment. BTW, do you use the built-in VPN client or do you use the Astrill applet? I use the latter because it is...
