    DroboPro firmware 1.2.2?

    Hi, I just got a used DroboPro with some small drives from a Facebook Market seller for $250. The plan for it is to use it as iSCSI storage for my Windows 2016 server which is running Plex. I know that this device has a limit of 16TB per volume which is perfectly fine with me as I would use...

    Voxel Voxel's firmware for Orbi RBK50 system

    My RBK50 has been running well under the most recent firmware but I would love to see other options. I got many great years out of my old R7000 because of DD-WRT and XWRT and I assume RBK50 would benefit immensely .

    Realistic Orbi backhaul speed?

    Thanks Tim! I don't know how I didn't notice that section before. So my speeds seem to be lining up with the "Hallway" results from your testing. If I read the description right, both the "Hallway" and "Living Room" were on the same floor but I guess the "Hallway" was further and/or had more...

    Realistic Orbi backhaul speed?

    So I just bought the Orbi kit in order to relocate my home work space. Previously I was hardwired to my R7000 which is unfortunately no longer possible in the new location. The whole setup was painless and allowed my desktop to be wired into the satellite for accessing my Windows Server 2016 box...

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    The certs are generated via the easy-rsa scripts that come with the OpenVPN software. Using certs from some random website would be really, really dumb especially since you don't want anyone to have the private key of your VPN. The parts of the tutorial I modified are only a) for switching to...

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    The R7000 may have really great DD-WRT support but the OpenWRT support is incredibly underwhelming. Since the Broadcom drivers for the 2.4 and 5 GHz radios is closed source, the OpenWRT port doesn't have WiFi which makes it useful for the 4 devices I have physically plugged into my router but...

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    OK, so I got a client to connect by following this guide (switching out the TCP 443 parts for UDP) http://www.teksec.org/2013/openvpn-tutorial-dd-wrt-howto-configure-properly-part-2/ Now I just need to figure out why I cannot ping the gateway nor reach the internet when the connection is...

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    It's actually XWRT which is a port of Merlin to the R7000 (http://xvtx.ru/xwrt/about.htm) last update was May so it's not terribly out of date. I'm actually somewhat set up with OpenVPN in DD-WRT but I think either my iptables rules are messed up or the config is wrong because I can't seem to...

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    Since you mention Asus routers, would installing Asuswrt-Merlin on my R7000 be worthwhile? I'm honestly not married to DD-WRT and don't mind switching as long as the project is stable and maintained.

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    This is what I get when I enable it: I can figure out some of the needed parts but I believe there is additional iptables rules and settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    There is both an option for OpenVPN Server/Daemon and OpenVPN Client which leads me to believe that you can run a standalone server.

    OpenVPN server on DD-WRT?

    Can anyone point me to a good tutorial on how to set up OpenVPN on a router using DD-WRT as a server? I've seen a ton of tutorials on having the router act as a client to another OpenVPN server but nothing recent on how to make my router an OpenVPN server. I just want to be able to use OpenVPN...

    Thecus with Windows Software?

    PC Perspective did a review of the 2 bay server. Looking at the price the 2, 4 and 5 bay models seem pretty good. http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Networking/Thecus-W2000-Windows-Storage-Server-Review-SOHO-NAS-Power-Microsoft-Server

    Netgear Nighthawk arriving today, firmware tips?

    Thanks @RogerSC, right before I read your response Kong seems to have added a .txt file to the repository giving a brief explanation of what each bin file actually is.
