The weirdest thing. I had my electrical panel replaced yesterday. I had a drop cable power my router, that I had setup like this over a year ago. So it was online the whole time. But when I came back, my router had a previous FW installed, and my openwrt instance was completely gone. So thank you for making this video, it served as a great reminder of how to set up my plans again. Def gonna save this video in my obsidian notes with my network configuration lmao.

@@AwesomeOpenSource you wouldn't happen to remember how to set DNS servers for the router? I've tried adding DNS to each clan interface, but the router isnt using the DNS. It's a ad guard DNS on a server on 1 of the vlans. It has custom domains built for the reverse proxy, and none are activating. It's how I know the DNS isn't activating lol. Everything I can find says that you can add the custom DNS in vlan interface-->advanced--> custom DNS. I remember I had a issue with this last time where that didn't work.

What I do personally when working with OpenWRT that does not have native console(serial/uart) or display out, I create another network (wifi or eth) OFF the main switch bridge so if I miss up something I don't lock myself out. I'll untag a sub-interface (if needed) and make it x.x..x without dhcp. Just a simple backup plan.

It's a good video on setting up OpenWRT. But there's one thing I've noticed that is missing in all the videos when setting up the firewall rules, that's the difference between dropping and rejecting packets. It's an important distinction and people who are new to firewall rules may not understand the difference and when to use one over the other.
@AwesomeOpenSource
@AwesomeOpenSource 4 месяца назад
True. They do essentially the same thing (block traffic), but Reject means it's rejected, and a message of some type will be sent back to the originating side. Dropped means it's blocked, and nothing is returned to the originator. At least that's how I understand it.

Hey Brian, Thank you for the wonderful video as always. I too moved from TP-link to Openwrt on my Pi4(have a couple of them laying around) mainly because TP-link doesn't support ipv6 firewall on ER605v1 device and for me ipv6 was a must due to what I run within my network. It nice to see how small device such as Pi4 can handle all of the routing. I have been running my network on Pi4 for over a couple of months without any issues. The only thing I miss off of ER605v1 is the PBR(Policy Based Routing). I do have the add-on installed on my router but for whatever reason I cannot get it to function. Since I have 2 WAN, I wanted to use one specific machine for a specific WAN. If you get time, may you please create a video on PBR, multi WAN setup and Firewall(ipv6 and ipv4)? Thanks in advance.

If it had just been my PC I would have simply blamed Windows 11 on my work machine, as my other laptop is wired.

My wall plate APs are TP-Link EAP615. They are PoE (Power over Ethernet), and they work fantastically well with OpenWRT.

@AwesomeOpenSource
@AwesomeOpenSource 11 месяцев назад
Part 2 is coming, and that's where we setup the APs with the same VLANs, and the Wifi networks attached to those VLANs. For my home, I have a lot of devices on the wifi. More than average I imagine, but just computing devices alone I have 1 laptop for work, 1 for my daily driver, 1 desktop for gaming, my wife, and the 2 girls each have a desktop for gaming, my mother has a desktop. We each have a smart phone, ipad, apple watch, plus my wifes work laptop adn work desktop. I have 3 Rokus, and 2 Apple TVs, my servers that run multiple VMs and LXC Containers for all my services I self host, plus 6 security cameras (with more planned) and a bunch of smart devices (light bulbs, light switches, and smart plugs). So for me separating these devices into VLANs (even at home) makes sense just to ease the traffic on a specific network.
@guyboisvert66
@guyboisvert66 11 месяцев назад
Having for example a DMZ VLAN is part of best practices i you host services like Plex for example. Another thing to consider is that broadcast are transmitted at maximum power on wireless interface so if you separate your LAN from wireless, you will get better results (not transmitting LAN broadcasts). Another use of the VLANs: Having separate wireless network for your own use and for guests.

It's really up to you as the network admin. They are all good, and all very capable. pfSense has a longer release cycle with a focus on very stable releases. OPNSense is almost the same as pfSense (forked version) but releases more often. That said, I've never had any major issues with their releases on my network. OpenWRT, as you've seen is pretty great stuff as well, but in my next video (Part 2 next week) I'll show the firewall setup, and it's different than pf and OPNSense for sure.

Don't know about DFS, but the tP-link stuff with Omada had tons of options, but just didn't work no matter how much I tweaked, it just dropped multiple times a day. Omada had a "smart" wifi mode that tried to figure out the best channels and frequencies based on other wifi around it, but didn't really make any difference.

@@AwesomeOpenSource got it. I think Omada should have a decent log. Might be easy think to check. "20sec of silence" was exactly my case with DFS. Hypothetically for indoors you can choose a different country (w/o DFS restrictions), lower the power and try to get more statistics on the same channels.

Omada does have logging, but everytime I checked there was nothing in the logs. It was just such a weird issue. I haven't seen it in two weeks (knock on wood) since finishing my OpenWRT setup with the same hardware other than the main router....so just not sure.

Yeah, I just really prefer the open source tools at this point. Happy you're using pfSense though.
