Hello

I've just tried to install Wireguard using the option in Kamoj's add in, but the install button is greyed out - I'm on version b9.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Thank you! :)

You should know what DNS your internet provider have.
If these DNS shows up then you leak...

If you (only?) trust your VPN provider you "put all your eggs in one basket"...
Also it's probable that your DNS is slower through the VPN provider.
Have you tested speed of DNS requests?

Also by doing this you lose DNS for bypassed devices when your VPN errors.
I don't think that is what you want - if you use bypassing.

I don't want this thread to be the forum for misconceptions of what DNS leak is,
so I end this discussion here and now, and hope that next "DNS leak" discussion gets it's own thread!
We need such a thread! :cool:

@kamoj......its me that said that :cool:
I Always check for dns leaks with as many internet sites as I can.When I get the red box(s) with you might be leaking dns I dont know whether all the servers that are shown belong to my vpn supplier
only the one with my dns ip address.When I get green box from a few different sites Im satisfied no leaks. Never had a green box on dnscrypt or stubby.Always had green box on all sites using pia dns servers.express vpn mostly green boxes. Had same results using mullvad wireguard,stubby and dnscrypt

Reactions: KW.
If I remember correctly:
It's grayed out for R9000 and when Wireguard client is already started.

So it's probably a bug:oops:...
Try this:
Code:
nvram set kamoj_wireguard_client_disabled=1

Then install, reboot and toggle the Wiregurad Stop/start button...

hello,

i use latest voxel (v1.0.4.41HF) firmware and latest kamoj add-on (v5.3b10) at my r9000.

If i get a disconnect (24 hour disconnect from my internet service provider) my r9000 automatically trys to reconnect to the internet but for some reason the internet wont work for all my devices (even bypassing devices) until i reboot my r9000.

This issue only happens if i use wireguard, if i use openvpn the internet works great after disconnect.

Pinging 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 result in error.

hope this issue can be fixed in a future version.
 
Sure, just tell me what is wrong and I'll change it!
I dont have r9000 and no wireguard, so I can not help. :(

- OpenVPN Client: Set bypassing devices default to pass killswitch
I had an issue with this:
I had these nvram variables:
kamoj_bypassed_devices_pass_killswitch_wg_disable=1
kamoj_bypassed_devices_pass_killswitch_ovpn_disable=1

but in the gui, the option No Killswitch for Bypass devices still showed as enabled for OpenVPN (and I think it did show disabled for Wireguard).

I had to uncheck No Killswitch for Bypass devices for OVPN and re-check it again to clear the nvram variable for ovpn.
But if I then refresh the GUI, the check-box is gone again.
And if I re-check the box again, then the nvram variable is set to 1 again.

It looks like the GUI uses opposite logic for checking this variable.

(for Wireguard the logic does seem to work; if nvram variable isn't set, then the checkbox in the GUI is enabled)
 
@R.Gerrits: Thanks.

(R9000)
I ran also into disappearing Selections. When i use Chromium based Browser (Vivaldi in my case) it´s all good. Also at "Kamoj Menu" -> "Router Internals" do not show up in most Browsers.
On "Settings-" Page at "Congestion Control" it says "westwood". At "Router Information" it reports "yeah" If I choose "Voxel Default" marking jumps to "westwood". On "Router infomation" still "yea" -> Reboot, no change.
On "Hidden Menus" -> "QoS Setup" if i delete a Rule a page shows up with "o ocla".
Changes are made though. If i here change something or select "Set Up QoS Rule" a Page with a QoS Policy Table is shown. If i make changes here, i get a "400".

Oops, my fault:oops:, the GUI show opposite value.
I edited and saved the wrong addon_vpnclient.htm...
Thank you for heads up!:p

Maybe you can share the wireguard and dnscrypt (if you use it?!) and openvpn client logs when this happens.
Would be helpful.
And maybe for now, you can use a cron job to automatically reset you router ?

Hidden Menus are Netgear "Hidden Menus", still in Netgear code but not accessible from their GUI.
QoS settings/forms only work if you use the QoS.
..
On "Hidden Menus" -> "QoS Setup" if i delete a Rule a page shows up with "o ocla".
Changes are made though. If i here change something or select "Set Up QoS Rule" a Page with a QoS Policy Table is shown. If i make changes here, i get a "400"...

- OpenVPN Client: Fixed display of "No Killswitch for Bypass devices"
 
Kamoj-addon 5.3b10 seemed like killswitch/bypass wasn't working for OpenVPN (?). I had intermittent issues with losing "internet connection" on bypassed devices. When this happened, an existing connection like a download would finish but then the next download (DNS call?) would fail and give a no internet message.

Shutting off the OpenVPN killswitch fixed the problem. OpenVPN stayed connected the entire time and there was nothing in its log to indicate a problem. I will try 5.3b11 and see if I have the same issues.

Thanks,
BL
