Thread is updated.

P.S.

But seems it does not matter for LBR20 owners (?). Passive watchers...

I am running this on my LBR20 to get a better view and handle on my network.
Turns out the LBR20 has many more network interfaces than I would have expected.

Is there a documentation for each interface?
I am especially concerned with the seven ethernet interfaces ath0, ath01, ath11, ath2, br0, eth0 and eth1.
How do they map to the two physical RJ45 jacks and how are they used?

I would like to hock it up to a proxy server with a dual link and am debating if I could use link aggregation with two 1G lines to better utilize a WiFi6/ax access point.

Hi Voxel! I am not a Linux user so I apologize in advance if this is an impossible task. Is there a way to install a package? I am trying to install Green Tunnel (used for DPI bypassing. Lets the user bypass throttling connections to streaming sites like Netflix/Youtube, Etc.) https://github.com/SadeghHayeri/GreenTunnel
If not, is there any way this could maybe be included in the next release?
This DPI bypass is faster than VPN connections and is very useful for LTE users.
Thanks for all your work!!!!
