    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.41HF

    I did some investigation into OpenWRT write speeds because I use a Linksys EA8500 as an extension AP and as an Rsync backup target, and there is some extensive work done over on their forums with the conclusion basically being the processors in there aren’t optimised for fast file writes. There...

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.41HF

    Working from home and I don’t trust my employer enough to have a device with that kind of visibility Thanks for checking it out, I am using dnscrypt 2 (via port 64153)

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.41HF

    Hey Voxel, Thanks again for another great update. Update donation provided as usual :) Additionally, I was curious to know, at one point between firmware updates, using the Netgear Guest network in isolation mode ignored the dnsmasq entry for "domain" and now it doesn't seem to - or at least...

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.40HF

    Signal boosting my thanks for your continued support. Had a question for your @Voxel does the donate button on your site go to you, or to your web host? Have been pushing through pretty regular donos this year and don't really intend to stop, regardless of where they go just wanted to confirm :)

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.38HF

    Hey Voxel, Not sure if this should be aimed at you but I've got a really weird one. I haven't performed a factory reset on my R9000 for some time, and previously (like back in 2018) I was running Plex on it, from a USB on "sda1". Plex being Plex generated a lot of logs, sure no worries...

    Kamoj Kamoj add-on V5 for Netgear R7800 X4S and R9000 X10

    Hi Kamoj, Firstly, thank you for your efforts with the addon, I was using the Feb version up until tonight and it's a really great improvement! One thing I've been investigating has been the QOS because I recently purchased some Bluesound Pulse Flex 2i wireless speakers for the house, and in...

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.38HF

    Thanks again Voxel for your continued support of this custom firmware! Going to update to this in a few days after I donate, but just wanted to throw out some suggestions that I use in my home network. To avoid using Netgear's certificates, I have a custom router.subdomain.com URL forward to...

    Custom firmware build for R9000/R8900 v. 1.0.4.36HF

    Came here just to like and say thanks. I cannot overstate enough how important this firmware is, and if all you ask is a simple show of appreciation I will gladly do it for all upgrades I install. Additionally, I hate when there are empty BB commitments that peaple make and forget/fail to keep...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.4.33HF

    Thanks a lot! I was just coming back to the thread to say I’ve spent the last 2 hours reading about cross-compliling, toolchains, and OpenWrt’s buildroots - time I could have spent just installing Entware but it was fun nonetheless, and I also now completely understand the reason behind your...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.4.33HF

    Hi Voxel, Just wanted to send another shoutout and a further thanks for all your work with this project. Without this firmware the router would be trash. My question should hopefully be simple. I was poking around your site and noticed a few files under the “Kamoj” folder which led me to...

    Custom firmware build for R9000

    Hi Voxel, got to say thanks for months of smooth sailing with your custom firmware. But now I've hit some rough winds. I am running Plex on another server in the house now and when I manually port forward anything to internal 32400 (tried multiple internal IPs) it just doesn't work. External...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.2.42HF/1.0.2.42HF-HW

    Hi shez, I used the OpenVPN client included with Voxel's firmware and can confirm if you follow the instructions it will work for "all devices" i.e. All traffic routed through the (r9000/r7800) device will be VPN'd. I had to use dnscrypt to get it working properly, and would have kept it on if...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.2.42HF/1.0.2.42HF-HW

    Thanks. I was conspicuous as to the placing of the dnscrypt section in your readme and had a glance last night, they have an AU server which is handy (family complains when I use a default international DNS, and the VPN is international) I'll give dnscrypt a shot and see how it goes. One more...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.2.42HF/1.0.2.42HF-HW

    Hi Voxel, I went full hog on your firmware + Entware because there just doesn't seem to be a way to get VLAN tagging to work on DD-WRT in a way that's compatible with my cable modem unlike the Netgear stock/your mod can (oh and LEDE on an EA8500). The main reason I wanted to use DD-WRT was for...

    Custom firmware build for R9000 v. 1.0.2.42HF/1.0.2.42HF-HW

    avtella - thanks for the update, I look forward to that being released. Voxel - thanks for the comprehensive and timely response! :) I had a feeling Plex might work if I rebuilt it since I highly doubted you would overlook a feature and not point it out in your documentation, so, glad that's...
