    A question about WireGuard security

    I have it set up so that the Synology user account I use for remote access, only has read-only access to the share that I have all my videos saved. All other shares are set to "no access." I also have a very strong password for the Synology admin account, using numbers, small and capital letters...

    A question about WireGuard security

    I've put App Lock by Trusted Tools on my phone and it seems to be working well so far.

    A question about WireGuard security

    I store all my data on my Synology Diskstation, but normally I restrict access from my mobile phone to just the media share, which only has videos and my music library (read only). If I needed access to my more sensitive data (e.g., if I were on holiday and needed to view/edit a document), I'd...

    A question about WireGuard security

    I've tried WireGuard and it seems to work OK, but I can't find any information about possible security risks when using it on a portable device (e.g., a mobile phone). I primarily use it for watching video content on my mobile phone (stored on my Synology NAS) while waiting to pick up my...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    I've run the update and now I'm seeing this. Has something gone wrong?

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    I've just run the command again and it work's now (it takes me to the same place I would be if using amtm):

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    Aha. I thought it might be something like that, but I wasn't sure how to do it. I'll add this additional information to the BACKUPMON instructions file in case I forget if/when I need to use the restore option. Thanks for the advice.

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    I must be missing something in the restore instructions, because I just wanted to test the first part to see if everything was set up correctly in case I needed to use it in future. I can check the settings via amtm, but if I paste the first command listed in the instructions, I get this: This...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    Just another quick query if I may. Imagine a situation where I have a few amtm scripts and a configuration backup created from within the router's GUI. What would be the difference in the outcome of restoring from a BACKUPMON backup and from the one created from the GUI? My particular interest...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    So just to confirm: 1) Is there any difference between using the amtm menu in BACKUPMON to restore and using the command in the instructions above? 2) If not using amtm, would I just paste sh backupmon.sh -restore into something like WinSCP, which I already have on my computer, viz;

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    I wonder if someone could clarify the restore procedure with BACKUPMON for me, so that I would be absolutely sure of what to do next time I need to perform a restore? I’m asking this because this morning, I was in a hurry and accidentally restored my router to factory defaults, rather than...

    That's good. Mine is due to auto update on Tuesday 5th March. I'll confirm the result after it's done its thing.

    AX86U PRO - led setting ignored

    Did you try using the button on the router to turn off the leds? It works on mine, but I've since used led-dimming stickers, as some light useful where I have my router at the top of the stairs.
