I see. The only thing, which i can think of that would meet your requirements fully would be something like the samknows whitebox, which sits in front of your router and monitors when there isn't activity from it, and only then conducts various tests. I'm not sure you would ever get a perfect...

It makes perfect sense. But in my mind the complexity of what you want is so major, compared to what you get from it. Why not just schedule traffic and cut all traffic on the LAN side of your router in 5 minutes or so everyday at 3 or 4 am, and let the speedtest run at this point?

I have made a script for this using a simple program called speedtest-cli which is python based. you can simply install it by using this line: pip install speedtest-cli when installed you can create a script called speedtest.sh and insert this: #!/bin/sh echo " " >>...

Can't we remove the "ssh from wan" option from the web interface in some way? In my oppinion @Xentrk, the only reason why we, which are using custom FW are being attacked, is because we actually check our syslogs once in a while, compared to the normal end-user who might just setup the router...

The easiest way is to install ab-solution first and then entware and dnscrypt, but you'll get it once you start working with it. If it turns out to be too difficult for you, text me.

I believe that ab-solution would solve the problems you have. It has the ability to use custom host files or just blacklisting sites manually one by one. I have been using it for a while with DNSCrypt without any issues at all!

this is a bit outdated but should work https://www.rickygao.com.au/blog/get-a-free-public-ssl-for-your-lab/

You will not loose it after a reboot no It will run in the background yes. You will have to enable it and then reset cache on your computer.

Run wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decoderman/AB-Solution/master/ab-solution.sh --no-check-certificate Then run sh ab-solution.sh The script is not found in /tmp/mnt/Ab-solution It is most likely located in /tmp/mnt/sda1/ You should also check that you have jffs partition enabled

Yeah i know that technically it is possible ;) One could also just use DNSCrypt on the router and point all the DNS traffic through that and benefit from the added encryption on the DNS resolver while using your VPN... which i would believe to be even more "safe" ;)

No problem! No questions are dumb! You'll learn something new everytime you get something clarified. Remember that! I'm just glad to help :)

That's because it can't block ads when you use the dns of your vpn provider... Simple as that

To delete the old file use "cd /mnt/" Then "ls" That will show you a list of the USB devices mounted on the router. Find the one on which you have all files Then use "cd YOURUSB" where YOURUSB is replaced with the name you found (probably something like sda1 or sda5). Then use "ls" again...

@thelonelycoder would it really be that much extra work to maintain a fork of the original with your addons to? Everytime there was a major stable version you would just merge the changes into your branch and that would be it?

I was wondering if someone with a qnap TS-251 could tell me how efficient this NAS (in percentage) runs vpn with 128-bit AES encryption? I was thinking about buying one and using the vpn client in it to direct my clients on my home network seamlessly through vpn In advance thanks!
