Me trying to use #multicast snooping with this in our hackspace: After several hours of debugging, realizing it's not bc. of the #OpenWrt powered, #rtl83xx based switch I've added, nor the new patches I've made and added to it. But because of this two years old, ignored #OPNsense (or #OpenBSD?) bug with #MLD: https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/6247

Is there someone out in the Fediverse that has a fully working configuration for #OpenWRT on a #Sky #xDSL connection?

The one I have ends up with working IPv6, but an IPv4 address in 100/8 that doesn't work.

My biggest issue with #OpenWRT so far is the upgrade process. As in, keeping the OS up to date. The package manager's upgrade functionality, which is fully baked into the OS and its GUI web interface, prominently displays a warning at the top that tells you not to use it. Don't upgrade packages, it can and will break your system: https://openwrt.org/meta/infobox/upgrade_packages_warning

Okay, then why is that feature baked into the OS at all?

Meanwhile, the sysupgrade feature, which is the recommended way to keep the OS up to date, is also baked into the OS, but only at the cli level. If you want to use the GUI web interface, you need to manually install the attended-sysupgrade package, after which point you can manually re-flash the OS whenever you want to using up to date packages, provided that you also (somehow) keep up to date about their releases without the use of a real tool to check for updates using the GUI. Why isn't that baked into the OS instead?

The whole thing is just very confusing.

Also getting my #rtl83xx switch #Linux kernel code changes more and more into a style shape that I start to like, that looks more upstreamable to me.
Sometimes I see can see that some code looks ugly, but might have some difficulties to come up with a solution that is more "pretty"/readable. I have some judgement for aesthetics, I think, but I'm sometimes lacking a bit of creativity for aesthetics in general. Aesthetics has such a huge search space, too many possibilities :D. #OpenWrt

Router: OpenWrt Two

Das OpenWrt-Team plant die zweite Version ihres freien Routers. Das Gerät soll die Defizite des ersten Modells beheben, wird aber erheblich teurer.

OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support

OpenWrt is an open source, Linux-based operating system designed for routers and other wireless devices. It’s been around for more than two decades and for most of that time it’s been offered primarily as an operating system that you could install as a replacement for the firmware that ships with existing devices.

But last year the OpenWrt team partnered with Banana Pi to launch the first […]

@justine I love me some Collectd and MQTT. I haven't got a home assistant server though. (nor, in fact, NUT, anywhere, yet.) I decided Graphite and Grafana were too big and that I wanted to cobble up some graph thing that #Emacs eww or Dillo could browse. But right now I'm trying to replace #OpenWRT with some #FreeBSD jails. OPNsense would make more, um, sense, but I feel zany!

Anyone good with weird #openwrt mesh networks using both ethernet and wifi for backhaul? Help please! :)

https://forum.openwrt.org/t/wifi-ethernet-backhaul-for-batman-mesh/227498

@justine "No I'm not using #OpenWRT anymore sorry." Did you write anywhere something about why? Because I am just starting with OpenWRT on Banana Pi R-4.

So my Intel N100 quad core with 16Gb ram and a 256GB NVME drive and 4 x 2.5Gb ethernet ports has arrived with pfSense preinstalled but I'm thinking I'd be better off with #OPNsense installed instead?
Am I right as this is going to be my main router / firewall ? Feel free to comment and thank you.
No I'm not using #OpenWRT anymore sorry.

@bodems and Jan's reply on the #OpenWrt forum also lead me to this observation, that several #switchdev drivers seem to try to emulate a multicast router port by mirroring all known #multicast listener entries onto these mc router ports... https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openwrt/cover/20230303214846.410414-1-jan@3e8.eu/#3074983
Which makes me scream, this is broken in so many scenarios... like when you use multiple #IGMP / #MLD snooping switches. Or if you don't have a listener for that group, only a sender, whose packets still need to go to multicast routers.

So bought a used, managed D-link DGS-1210-24HP PoE switch on kleinanzeigen.de now. Thanks to the pointers from @bodems and this feedback on the #OpenWrt forum: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/openwrt-supported-switches-which-use-linux-bridge-igmp-mld-snooping/225530/5?u=t_x.
Switches using the #rtl83xx driver seem to be the most promising and affordable solution with #DSA. Interestingly, OpenWrt has patched it downstream to implement the DSA .port_mdb_add.

Anyone any recommendations on a #WiFi #AP that will run #OpenWRT, as looking to upgrade my failed TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750

Ruff spec looking at for the upgrade, must is to run on 12V to run off solar battery setup

Power: 12V
Flash/RAM: 128MB or better
CPU: 750MHz or better
Ethernet Ports: 4 LAN, 1 WAN
Wireless: 2.4GHz/5GHz
Detachable Antennas

#Linux

#OpenWrt 24.10 has been released (#LinuxEmbedded / #Linux / #DevelopmentEnvironment / #WRT / #LEDE / #LuCI / #WirelessFreedom) https://openwrt.org/

I am actually thinking about using #OpenWRT on a single board computer doing server stuff instead of #AlpineLinux, #Debian or #FreeBSD.

So, coding session 2 of trying to get #OpenWrt running on this D-Link DGS-1210-10P B1 switch (which I hoped it would before buying it for 40€ on kleinanzeigen.de - but of course only variant F1 is supported by OpenWrt...). Last time I got at least an OpenWrt initramfs booted (without any networking or flash). And still hoping that it might be #DSA capable and would do #IGMP / #MLD snooping in kernelspace with hardware #multicast forwarding support.

While from the outside they might look similar: A 10 port Gigabit switch, with 802.3af #PoE support and two additional #SFP ports and a 500Mhz CPU. The CPU and switch architecture are actually quite different, B1 is #Marvell #Kirkwood, while the F1 is #Realtek. Also, before it seems this B1 device was running an ancient, rusty 2.6.22 kernel, now I was able to boot a #Linux 6.6 kernel via the #OpenWrt initramfs :D.

Domingão😃 dia dos nerdolas colocar o setup em dia! Hoje resolvi atualizar o #linux do meu #roteador
Pra quem não sabe o #openwrt se trata de uma distro Linux que surgiu em 2004, a partir da disponibilização do código-fonte do Firmware do roteador  Linksys WRT54G, que possuía muitas partes que estavam sob licença GPL, assim surgiu um sistema altamente customizável com intuito de substituir esses Firmwares proprietários que vêm por padrão nos roteadores sem-fio que temos em casa

About to flash my Brume router from #openwrt 21 to 24. If I don't post again, it went wrong

OpenWrt 24.10 released, bringing a major Linux kernel update, initial (but still limited) support for WiFi 7, and many other changes to the open source GNU/Linux distro for routers and other embedded devices. https://buff.ly/3QaVApq #OpenWrt #Linux #WiFi7

#OpenWrt 24.10.0 the #opensource #router-oriented distribution has been released. Changes include an update to the 6.6 #linux kernel, use of access control lists on larger systems, #MultipathTCP on devices with big flash size , better #WiFi6 (802.11ax) support, the beginning of #WiFi7 (802.11be) support.

OpenWrt 24.10 open-source router firmware debuts with initial WiFi7 support, Linux kernel 6.6, multipath TCP, and new device targets.

No idea if anything important has actually changed. But everything has reconnected at full speed.
