    Netgear Orbi RBK 852 Help

    1.5Gb fiber connection with 3 mesh nodes. Clients getting ~500Mbps. Setting or nature of AIMesh?

    If you're on WiFi - that's basically what you get. 500 Mbit/Sec isn't bad... Look at wired performance and go from there...

    AC86U USB not reading 5 volts

    Hey, let them do what they want to do...

    Internet dropping out frequently (RT-AC87U)

    Others may have not mentioned this... The 87U is getting along in years - so is the Power Adapter - they're well known for going soft over time - it's the whole volts and current and they tend to dim out under load...

    Wireless Mac filter defaulting to whitelist.

    Why use the MAC filter at all? Just saying - as long as you have a secure passphrase and run WPA2 or better, you're good to go...

    GL.iNet worth a try? Any advantage over ASUS?

    With the MT-6000 - stay with factory/stock firmware for now... It's pretty good as it is... OpenWRT on Master is still working on things - unless you want to be an Alpha Tester...

    Need help figuring out my Demarc to get Internet back upstairs.

    You might have a WVB inline with the DTV set top box... You'll know if you have a WVB, as it serves the wireless Genie units... Most installers will do the following path... Dish --> Deca --> Coax --> WVB --> HR44 Set Top Box # note that WVB is only needed for wireless units... I forget what...

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

    Yeah - this is one of those classic stack-smashing things, and it's not just on glibc or php... it's a common risk. It could happen on a device that uses MUSL if the binaries statically link to a glibc, libc, or uclibc that doesn't have protection there...

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

    Yeah - does it make sense to maintain/manage these DNS blockers when we have things like IPv6, CDN's, and HTTPS/QUIC which bury ad-domains and cannot be blocked... End-points are probably better - browser side...

    Wireless Mac filter defaulting to whitelist.

    Ok - and why? If you're using WPA2/WPA3, and a reasonable passphrase, this shouldn't be a problem...

    Need help figuring out my Demarc to get Internet back upstairs.

    If this helps - DirecTV prefers to use/pull their own cable runs for their equipment, even if there is wiring in place... they'll enter in on the demarc from the dish on the roof, as that is where the best grounding is, but not they generally will not cross connect with installed...

    Google camera troubleshooting

    The Nest Cam only does 20MHz 802.11n in either band - but as mentioned, in your 2.4GHz, select 1, 6, or 11 with 20MHz - your neighbors will appreciate it.

    Google camera troubleshooting

    I would again suggest to reset the camera, including removing it from Google Home - I have had to do that in the past with the camera and my nest hub... Once I did that, and added them back into Google Home, they were fine...

    Google camera troubleshooting

    That looks an awful lot like Smart Connect or roaming assistant. Try not binding it to any particular node and let it float... and don't assign it an IP - it doesn't need it...

    As folks roll into this - this style of supply chain attacks is going to be a problem moving forward... https://linuxsecurity.com/news/security-trends/xz-style-attacks One of the issues with xz-utils is that the backdoor wasn't in the repo itself - it was in the tarball download, so if one...
