I have read that for OpenReach FTTP the VLAN isn't needed. I'm hoping this is the case.
I am using an RT-AX58U router and the WAN port is on eth4
However, in case it isn't I was looking at scripting a /jffs/script/services-start to set up the VLANs based on the need for 101 for OpenReach and...
Hi I'm running firmware 3004_388.4
I'm wanting to connect 2 subnets via an OpenVPN. The Client Router is running OpenWrt 24.10.0, r28427-6df0e3d02a and is connected to a Virgin Router and is acting as a AP
My local LAN/Wireless subnet is 10.200.0.0 255.255.0.0 - The server VPN address is...
Investigations complete - Ports are not routed to the Mac from the public internet.
The Mac is answering the pings (Setting Firewall Stealth Mode on the Mac prevents the ping being answered)
To clarify a few points:
Router is RT-AX58U
Firmware: 388.2_2 (Merlin)
Tested ping from public internet - Receives a Ping response from an Amazon AWS EC2 instance.
I'm unsure where the ping response come from - But further information on this thread suggests it's from the Mac.
Router is...
Hi.
I've been playing with IPv6.
My Mac OS has an IPv6 assigned with the correct prefix.
However, from the public internet I can ping6 that address and get a reply.
Is this normal behaviour - In that the router is replying for everything that has an IPv6 address prefixed correctly?
Or is...
Fair enough - each to their own.
I'll get round round to tcpdump-ing the network and find out exactly what's been communicated between Amazon and aaews.
But you mentioning IFTTT has given me an idea of where to go digging.
So for clarity - I can ask Alexa to start the Guest Network.
The Guest network starts with an SSID of something like ASUS_Guest3
I can then change the SSID in the Web UI to MY_Guest.
However, the next time Alexa starts the Guest Network the SSID is again ASUS_Guest3.
Do you think that SSID...
Would anyone know how Alexa or the Router chooses the SSIDs when enabling the third guest network by Alexa voice command.
Is there some config file with these details in or does Amazon tell the Router what to use?
I’m tinkering with my N56U and the wireless SSIDs and PSKs and some bash scripts.
I’ve found the relevant settings in NVRam and can write and commit them.
I’ve found the guest enable/disable commands and the relevant toggle radio for 2.4 and 5.
Although the setting are visible in the web...
All I need to now sort out is how to report back to Alexa the corrected SSID & PSK to make this work seamless.
Any idea how Alexa integrates with the ax58 anyone
Brilliant!
I've add the relevant changes into the services-event script, but didn't issue the service restart_wireless (otherwise and endless loop I guess)
case $1 in

case $2 in

Hi.
I've got an Asus ax58U running Merlin as my main router and an N56U as an AP running Padavan.
I'm doing a bit of hacking around guest networks - Using Alexa to enable the Guest network and the ax58
When it does enable the network I have a script (/jffs/scripts/service-event-end) which...
I’m trying to work out how to run a script when the guest WiFi network is enabled or disabled.
I’m thinking that I should be using the service-event-end script.
I think I should be looking for a wireless service for start/restart/stop but I could do with a pointer on how to detect the status...
