    The rules are simple: Be patient, be nice, be helpful or be gone!

    Any usefulness for Skynet + pfsense/opnsense in transparent bridge mode?

    I would Pfsense since it is running the latest FreeBSD version.

    Ubiquiti network or all-in-one router?

    If anything, small business networks are more secure than any consumer routers. The code is more robust in small business networks. ASUS would not be having thousands of routers added to a bot net chain for attacking things. I would say Pfsense is more secure than any ASUS wireless router...

    Does ASUS Merlin's QoS consider DSCP?

    Your QoS is only going to help you if you saturate your ISP internet connection. It will have no effect on internet routing to your game server. The internet routing is controlled by who owns the network your game server lives in. How big is your network? Can your issue be related to local...

    Any usefulness for Skynet + pfsense/opnsense in transparent bridge mode?

    No, Pfsense will assign DHCP. You are running 2 firewalls. They will be isolated networks. You need to assign an IP network not being used for the Pfsense LAN side. This is how I bring up new firewalls to test and maybe use.

    Any usefulness for Skynet + pfsense/opnsense in transparent bridge mode?

    If you want to play with Pfsense then you can just plug it into your ASUS router network. Turn off blocking private IP addresses and it should work. So, anything plugged into the LAN side on Pfsense will be firewalled using Pfsense. You could use this as a migration to Pfsense as you learn it...

    Avast Needs Software Update if you run it

    My mistake before coffee.

    [tools] Waveform Bufferbloat Test

    Yes, I can see using it at slow speeds. I could have used it back in the DSL years. I guess you know it only comes into play when you saturate your 1 gig connection. So, they probably are not doing anything to help.

    Ubiquiti network or all-in-one router?

    I think this statement is totally ridiculous.

    Aruba vs Cisco vs TP Link Omada vs Unifi Access Points

    I thought 2.4Ghz would go through everything. What is causing 2.4Ghz to be blocked? I don't really track it much as I prefer 5Ghz. I mainly use it for outside as it goes through my brick walls where 5Ghz is limited.

    [tools] Waveform Bufferbloat Test

    I don't think buffer bloat is a problem with today's internet speeds.

    News New 28 year old Php/gnu c buffer overflow vulnerability.

    Sounds like this is Linux based so I assume it does not apply to Pfsense not being Linux based.

    Aruba vs Cisco vs TP Link Omada vs Unifi Access Points

    I only used 5Ghz for a while. I thought it worked well. My wife bought some toys that only had 2.4Ghz support. If your AP are interfering with each other because they are too close and you want to run 2.4Ghz then just turn 2.4Ghz on using 1 or 2 APs and leave the others turned off. You can...

    Aruba vs Cisco vs TP Link Omada vs Unifi Access Points

    You need to have your network working correctly, then yes. I have 3 Cisco 150ax APs plugged into my Cisco layer 3 POE+ switch and I can control all my APs from my local IP using a GUI. All 3 APs need access to each other on 1 VLAN. It can be a management VLAN or not. I use 2 VLANs with my...

    Advice needed on Access Points system (Unifi / Omada / Netgear / Zyxel / Grandstream / Dlink)

    My Cisco 150ax 2x2 wireless APs don't have the coverage of my older Cisco 581 4x4 wireless APs. But the price for the Cisco 150ax APs is a lot cheaper and I think having more APs is better than less. You end up with more active talkers for less money if you use separate channels. I think...

    News LG SmartTV - WebOS privilege escalation

    If I owned an LG TV then I would update it and remove internet access. I don't trust TVs with computer software to keep it updated. Wait, this is what I do with my Sony. It has no internet access except when I update the software. I use an AppleTV, the latest, to keep up with security. I...

    Aruba vs Cisco vs TP Link Omada vs Unifi Access Points

    I see the words Unifi and enterprise level too much. They do not go together. And Cisco small business is not enterprise level either but a lot closer than Unifi. Cisco's small business networking equipment software is great. Their hardware is reliable but not enterprise like Cisco's...

    CVE-2024-3094 - XZ Utils Backdoor - addtional info

    Yes, there is not a perfect solution out there. But overall, it is the best bet right now. It may change in the future.

    Aruba vs Cisco vs TP Link Omada vs Unifi Access Points

    I would never think of Unifi as enterprise level. It is business level but not enterprise level. There are way too many bugs in their software and their equipment is not at that level. Enterprise level you can depend on no matter what. There may be bugs once in a while but very few and the...
