?

white lagoon Jul 24, 2018, 1:25 PM

#

my servers underwent a restart as per schedule , (i host gaming servers) and a mates got a page hosted from there and was wondering if i need to run any specific programs to get it going again , built using atom js node and parsec and ssh ? ive checked all the services and they seem to be running \

#

its not major as sites still under development but itll be handy to know weather its my connection or an oversight on my part not running a particular service or commandline

#

game servers operational and players are currently active so im guessing its not entirely connection

waxen scroll Jul 24, 2018, 3:36 PM

#

you lost me at "atom js node and parsec"

#

i used to run web servers but not all this fancy new shit

#

all i can say is check netstat to see if its listening at all, if not go into syslog

slow pivot Jul 24, 2018, 3:50 PM

#

@white lagoon I'd check the firewall rules on that machine; that is generally something that is set in memory but then is forgotten to be written out to a permanent config file that gets reloaded on reboot

high anchor Jul 24, 2018, 3:53 PM

#

If everything is started with the rest of your services, it will work without any issues. If not, you(/he ?) could use PM2, which is a process manager built for node (and others too) which starts (and restart if needed) Node apps on boot.

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

@clear igloo Hmm, so bought a used Cisco 2921 to study with alongside virl (still working on the build for it), which side is considered the front?
I noticed the PSU is facing with the plastic cover but the ethernet ports are on the other side of it.
Just checking before I mount it the wrong way?

clear igloo Jul 24, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

😄

#

I just consider the port side front

#

But you can mount it both ways

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:12 PM

#

Yeah, that's what i figured. Oh well, pretty plastic will be on the back

#

Thanks

#

I'm still stumbling around CLI like an idiot. I'm getting there learning commands...

clear igloo Jul 24, 2018, 7:25 PM

That's the spirit though, just keep plugging away at it

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:28 PM

#

isn't that the router linus had before switching to pf sense?

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:29 PM

#

I know he had an old cisco router but I forgot what

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:29 PM

#

from the picture, it seems to be that one

#

lol btw i would not know which side is the front too xD

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

haha, yeah, I figured it would be better to ask Lurick there

#

Though wow, this is actually quieter than I thought. Not as loud as my UPS unit...

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

linus put the power plug at the front

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

I was expecting a jet engine takeoff

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

my ups doesnt have a fan 😄

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

haha

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:32 PM

#

so the cisco switch is louder

#

i also removed the front cover of my ups to run 2 wires that connects to 2 additional batteries

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:33 PM

#

That sounds fun

#

Yeah, have a eaton rackmount UPS...it's quite loud at idle

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

yeah, if you have a cheap-ish ups and some batteries....

#

lol

#

do you keep this stuff in your bedroom?

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

Yeah. haha

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

good choice 😄

#

theres nothing more relaxing than fan noises

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

It's still funny, my family is so used to the noise of the UPS by now

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

my mom hates the beep of it when the power goes out

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

when I turn it off one day, we all had trouble sleeping because it's too quiet. lol

#

Yeah, my mom hates the beep of mine too

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:35 PM

#

like when your house is near a train station

#

you get used to the sound

#

mine is not, but still

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

Yeah, makes sense

#

Hoping I can get another one of these and a switch or two

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

maybe with solar panels

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

Yeah, that sounds nice

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:37 PM

#

i'd like to have some servers

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:38 PM

#

Indeed. Just have a stack of them

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:38 PM

#

i have 7 pc's without an os and an hdd that could be used for something

#

i also want a 2U one, i now what i want to put on them, but i dont know how

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:40 PM

#

Haha, I have two 4U super micro servers, one has my PC in it, and one has my server in it.
I plan to get another one down the road for a workstation server
I quite like the server rack life, no more breaking my back to open my old desktop case when my friends want to test that one part of their PC

#

Now I can slide my servers in and out without effort

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:40 PM

#

lol

#

what if they are at the bottom

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

Ah, I used to have my PC case on top of my desk...and at one point I got tired of reopening it so I just left the side panels off...

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

what about a testbench

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:43 PM

#

Ah, I get scared of damaging that

#

and well, other people damaging it

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

like when that one fell in that linus' video

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

haha, yeah

#

Though wow, with the addition of this cisco router and my new printer, my rack probably will weigh 600-700 pounds...

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:45 PM

#

that i have to convert into kg

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:45 PM

#

haha, sorry, we're plebs in America

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:45 PM

#

holy crap

#

thats heavy

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:46 PM

#

Yeah, I have a 45U four post open rack

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:46 PM

#

😱 expensive

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:47 PM

#

currently 2U Eaton UPS, two Supermicro 4U servers, my Canon laser, new Canon inkjet printer, this cisco router, a juniper router, the edgerouter 4 and hopefully a 48 port UniFi switch in the future

#

Ah, you can usually find the full heigh racks for cheap used

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:48 PM

#

a lot of brands all together

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:48 PM

#

They aren't so loved like the half height ones. I got this rack plus two fixed shelved used for a good price

#

There's even people on craigslist selling full cabinets for $150...just trying to get rid of them

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:49 PM

#

🤔

#

i don't have that much space behind my door but i mean, it doesn't open completely already soooo

#

i might look at them

#

📎 IMG_20180724_214901.jpg

#

or instead of that, a good old ikea table

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:53 PM

#

As long as it works

#

I should take a new picture of my rack when I get everything installed

#

📎 IMG_1097.jpg

#

Older picture...pretend there's a 1U juniper router up top

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:53 PM

#

but all those routers are there just for testing or they are in use?

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 7:53 PM

#

and yeah, that's my friend's PC on that cardboard motherboard box..haha..

#

Oh, labbing

#

The edgerouter 4 is my actual home router though

#

I bought a USG Pro-4...but got a defective unit

#

and then the edgerouter 4 launched, was cheaper and faster

#

so I grabbed that instead

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 7:55 PM

#

https://www.amazon.it/dp/B00HXT8EUE/ref=psdc_460173031_t1_B00LV8YZLK
i think ill get something like this soon, i dont want to use the isp one

Ubiquiti Networks EdgeRouter ERPOE-5 Ethernet LAN Black wired rout...

Ubiquiti Networks EdgeRouter ERPOE-5 Ethernet LAN Black wired router - Wired Routers (10,100,1000 Mbit/s, 10/100/1000Base-T(X), Ethernet (RJ-45), IEEE 802.1Q,IEEE 802.1x,IEEE 802.3,IEEE 802.3ab,IEEE 802.3u, 802.1x RADIUS,SSH, IPSec PPTP L2TP): Amazon.it: Informatica

#

so im not the only one that gets defective things

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:00 PM

#

Yeah, that edgerouter is quite good

#

haha,yeah, there's giant thread about people getting memory panic USG Pro-4s

#

The fix was to swap the RAM, but I was like eh...edgerouter 4 and done

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:02 PM

#

i asked my dad for that as a bday gift but instead, he wants to give me money for the raspberry pi kit i bought cause he think its better than the router. "you don't need a firewall, you are not an enterprise, you don't have data to protect, in all those years i never got any virus"

#

so i guess im getting it by myself

#

so you got a refund for the broken one right?

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:03 PM

#

Yeah, refund. They wanted to RMA, but I was like...eh, edgerouter 4 is too tempting there.

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:03 PM

#

lol

#

but it was rack mount :/

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:03 PM

#

I just need to buy the rackmount bracket for it (I keep forgetting to buy it)

#

the edgerouter 4 has a bracket to rackmount it

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

oh

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

same with the edgerouter 6

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

i guess its fine them

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:04 PM

#

Yeah, I probably could live with the USG to be honest, but haha, I wanted rackmount

#

It tears the old Fios Quantum router apart, that's for sure

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

now you need one of those 👀

📎 2346661.png

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

The rest of the WiFi is two AC-Pros, I have a ethernet drop fro a third, but we might expand the house so holding off on installing that

#

haha, my desk is right next to the rack

#

those are coo lthough

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:05 PM

#

ikr

#

and pretty expensive

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:06 PM

very neat looking though

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

ouch

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

around 900 dollars i would say

#

instead of all those good routers, use the isp one linusPerfect

#

ItS GoOD

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:07 PM

#

lol

#

some of my non tech savvy friends are like that

#

..I'm sad when they leave a bad review on the ISP because the WiFi was bad

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

i have a pf sense machine and a juniper router, but i still use the isp one

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

like they firmly believe WiFi quality was tied to the internet speed quality...

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

lol

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

I want to make a pfsense one day to play with...but for now focusing on cisco

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:09 PM

#

and then connect all those routers together

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:10 PM

#

yeah, one day...

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:10 PM

#

lol

#

tell me when you finish the rack, i want to see it 😀

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:11 PM

#

haha, hopefully tomorrow

#

I'm waiting on some third party rails for the cisco router here

#

I don't think I can trust these two ear pieces to hold up this 2U router

#

I mean the juniper router is already leaning down

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:14 PM

#

📎 IMG_20180724_221257.jpg

#

yeah i would not trust them too, how can they hold a 15 pound switch or so

#

when i got this switch there was only one of these things, where did the other one go

gritty owl Jul 24, 2018, 8:15 PM

#

haha

#

that sucks

subtle glen Jul 24, 2018, 8:15 PM

#

i mean, the juniper router also have those things, but that's light weight

rocky badge Jul 24, 2018, 8:21 PM

(I dont have that ofc)

For us, 200/10 costs ~$200/mo

alright bros, need some help with openvpn and accessing the lan via client

#

I'm able to connect to my vpn server (ubuntu 18.04) outside the network (hotspot on phone) and whatsmyip shows me at my home ip, but for the life of me I cannot get this thing into the lan. goal is to RDP into my desktop

#

also, I can SSH into my ubuntu server while connected to vpn. literally everything seems to be working right, just can't see other machines on the lan'

regal chasm Jul 25, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

I'm trying to set up openvpn too, and I can't even ping anything

slow sluice Jul 25, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

I'm assuming I have something wrong with routing in the client.conf, server.conf, and/or UFW

now that you mention that, I can't ping my ubuntu machine, but I can SSH into using the same IP that I'm pinging

regal chasm Jul 25, 2018, 7:14 PM

#

I have pretty much the same thing, sometimes I kinda can access something, sometimes I can't

also when I check my public ip, it's the ip from my hotspot, not home network

I may use some 172.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x addresses on my local network only because of VLAN to sort trusted peripherals and IoT stuff.

why not use the 254 remaining /24s in the 192 space instead?

high anchor Jul 25, 2018, 11:16 PM

#

I just prefer to have a full 254 /24 per VLAN, just to be sure that I won't be out of address on any of my subnetwork. It's overkill but at least I can see in 1 sec on which VLAN my device is connected.

Alright, so we're upgrading to Gigabit in our house (finally avail in out area) but its going to be going over a standard coax line, we're currently using a 500megabit docsis3 modem (supplied by our cable provider for free) but it costs 29.99 for the gigabit modem rental. Any ideas on a simple coax in, gigabit out, modem?

#

Doesnt need to have routing in it, i use my own old cisco router to separate my server network and my home network.

unreal wedge Jul 27, 2018, 3:17 AM

#

@lean jacinth buy a DOCSIS 3.1 modem and never pay a fee for rental.

#

Expensive, but you save in the long run

lean jacinth Jul 27, 2018, 3:18 AM

Any recommendations on brand? was thinking of just getting a netgear but the majority of them seem to have fully fledged routers built in.

Expensive, but capable of 10GB up and down if the service ever can meet that. That's what DOCSIS 3.1 full duplex is capable of.

lean jacinth Jul 27, 2018, 3:21 AM

wow, we're just getting gig and now i already want 10 gig

#

#

whats the point of the modem supporting 10 gig if the only two outputs on it are 1 gigabit ports.

unreal wedge Jul 27, 2018, 3:23 AM

Might not be a 10Gb modem.

But is the best consumer one available, most likely.

@vestal citrus there is some HDMI to Ethernet adapters to carry a stream from a system to a monitor (but I think that you have to connect them directly with one cable), or you could use XSplit NDI feature (that allows you to use a XSplit stream as a XSplit source)

no way to integrate with the main router

I spent over 70 bucks for two of them to try and cover my whole house, but it was more efficient to run a long cable from a Power over ethernet adapter and setting the faster of the two i bought up as an access point using a long cable to cover my dining room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom

if your 1st repeater has the same ssid as the router, you should be able to connect a 2nd reapeater and/or acces point to it just like you would connect it to the router (assuming they use the same protocols and frequency)

Hey everyone, there are a lot of people on this discord so I figure here is the best place to introduce myself seeing as I am a network guy. I have a small homelab; mostly just and ERX and a managed switch, a few wifi routers running OpenWRT. I do some virtual networking as my main hobby. I have a few VPSs around running VyOS or PfSense. I have my own ASN (AS202313) as seen in my name and a /48. I don't run anything on it right now but I have plans for some v6 transitioning tech for a few people I know with v6 only VPSs. I will have to get a v4 block for that. I might use an AMPR one but I am also thinking of going in for a /24 from ARIN with a friend that we will then tunnel between us so we can share. I also manage a virtual internet exchange that I won't mention in case it be taken as advertising. There is not much point to it other than to see those peer numbers go up on bgp.he.net. In reality it makes routing worse, but those of us on it are not announcing anything we have important services on so it won't matter much. I have a few other projects that are waiting for things. I am going to send some stuff down to Fremont two to use as a mail server and some other stuff. A number of people from one of my networking groups are trying to make a RIPE LIR, we are still working out the details so it may be a while yet.
I am also a part of the hobocolo which is a networking group where we make vpn tunnels (usually gre) to each other and BGP peer over them then host services. We all use private ASNs and RFC1918 space and keep everything separate from the public space routers that some of us have.
If you have read this far you are probably my kind of person. Let em know if you want to chat or peer up.

Hey everyone. I was hoping that you guys could help me figure out my router problem. So for around about a week or a week and a half my router has been spotty with working. Some days it will work totally fine and then other days, which are the majority of them, the connection doesn't stay connected. This happens on both wifi and ethernet. I tore apart my setup and plugged the modem into the computer and tested it in Windows Powershell and pinged google for a while and none dropped. I plugged the modem into the router and then that into the computer and did the same test and got about 20% on average for dropped. I have rebooted and factory reset and touched every setting that I could think of that might have something to do with it and the problem persists. I have a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 smart dual band router and I got it in August of last year. It is on the newest firmware. I have tried Netgear's support site and found nothing and I have tried their phone support and they couldn't help bc I didn't want to pay about $40 for phone tech support. Any help would be awesome

unreal wedge Jul 28, 2018, 6:27 AM

If no updates available, you could try ddwrt, but new router recommended, otherwise update firmware.

neon bay Jul 28, 2018, 6:40 AM

I got it on amazon a little bit less than a year ago. So I think the return is not an option and i would have to call netgear up and pay $40, for phone support, to have them probably say its not hardware issues

I recommend OpenWRT as a router firmware for consumer grade wifi routers.
For most of my home customers, if they are upgrading their wifi modem I recommend stuff from Ubiquity. For homes without pre-run Ethernet cabling I recommend the Amplify line. Houses with pre-run ethernet or apartments I usually recommend the Unifi line. Usually AC lites or AC pros; never get the AC-LR and you won’t need the HD or the SHD. Remember, it’s better to have a couple smaller wifi nodes than one large one as devices like phones will have a hard time sending a signal back to the AP even if it can see the AP’s signal.
For an actual customer I will do a proper site survey and discuss needs and much more before making the decision. I really like the Ubiquity stuff but sometimes they are not the right thing for the job

I use AdvancedTomato on my R7000 but my router is an Edgerouter X

Yea. Basically same thing for me. I got a could Linksys routers with OpenWRT as basic access points with an Edgerouter X as my main router

@fresh copper what do you use for your wifi site survey?

fresh copper Jul 28, 2018, 2:56 PM

Right now I just use a program called Wifi Explorer. It’s not the best but I am looking into upgrading to something that can look for non-wifi interference. Right now I just have to know what causes interference.

#

For testing speeds I wire in a NUC and run iperf3

To that from my laptop

The UBNT app is “ok”. You can see some things and configure VLANs and DHCP. Not much else though. If I need to access on my phone I usually just ssh into it and edit it on the backend. Luckily, unlike pfsense, if you edit it on the back end the GUI will update properly

@fresh copper since you seem to know way more then me. I got a Netgear X10 on the cheep. What firmware do you suggest I run?

fresh copper Jul 29, 2018, 3:57 PM

#

I personally like OpenWRT (which merged with LEDE a while back) for those kinds of routers but I know a lot of people who like Tomato.
Should be able to google for most things but if need any help let me know. A quick google shows me that the Netgear X10 should be one of the easy ones to install it on. Here is the OpenWRT quick-start guide if you decide to go with that: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-quick-start/begin_here

unreal wedge Jul 29, 2018, 4:31 PM

#

OpenWRT's supposed to be more difficult than ddwrt.

fresh copper Jul 29, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

Basic stuff is easy with the GUI

#

I guess more advanced stuff does require cli on OpenWRT whereas others you can do the stuff in gui

#

I jumped into OpenWRT with a lot of cli experience already so it was not too bad

#

Not that you really need the cli much

#

I used it for setting up OpenVPN, Policy routing, and VLANs

#

They have changed the interface a couple of times recently

#

Especially if you use the experimental versions (I don’t recommend it most of the time but I have it on one of my routers due to special situations)

#

I am happy to help with any of the firmwares. Just @ me or DM me

vagrant heath Jul 29, 2018, 5:01 PM

#

Tomaro does not support the X10. Different cpu

fresh copper Jul 29, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

I didn’t check the Tomato compatibility list but I guess that makes sense. I find that OpenWRT has the larget number of supported routers and even some that are not supported have community builds

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

@bright forge basically flash it like you're doing a software update. There's specific details on the ddwrt site about how to do it for your particular router.

#

Getting back to a stock firmware isn't easy though.

#

*and your hardware has to have the right specs to even support DDWRT.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:46 AM

#

yes but all the files are .bin files... @unreal wedge

#

📎 unknown.png

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:50 AM

#

Use the factory image to flash the router, then the second one to flash over the factory to ddwrt

#

IF you don't know how, you shouldn't be doing it, or need to do a lot of research first.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:51 AM

#

i have been believe me and im still confused

#

so what exactly does the factory image do

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:51 AM

#

I know how to unbrick a bad flash with a jumper. You don't exactly have that hardware on hand. Not many do.

#

You know that panel you go to to setup the router.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:51 AM

#

actually ive unbricked it twice after failing

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:51 AM

#

Like 192.168.1.1

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:52 AM

#

yes

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:52 AM

#

*and you got lucky

#

You upload the factory.bin file to the update page in there.

#

Every router I've had to unbrick has had to be taken apart and jumped over serial.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:53 AM

#

^ thats what i had to do

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:53 AM

#

You've done that, but never messed with ddwrt ConfusedNick

#

That's odd, but whatever.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:53 AM

#

i bricked my router via trying to install ddwrt but failed (cause i didnt look further into it)

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:54 AM

#

Once the new factory bin has flashed, wait at least 5-15 mins before powercycling the router.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:54 AM

#

powercycling as in just turning it off and on again?

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:54 AM

#

Yes. Once that's complete, upload the second bin to the ddwrt firmware's update page and let that sit 5-15 minutes. Then powercycle.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:55 AM

#

alright

#

one question: when doing the factory bin, does it matter what version of the router's firmware is on it

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:55 AM

#

Once that's complete, you should be able to fully access the router under the new ddwrt firmware.

#

USE THE RECOMMENDED BUILDS FOR YOUR ROUTER!!

#

If you dabble in the beta builds, you may end up with a brick.

#

Usually the routers stock firmware version won't matter

#

*unless the later versions lock it down so ddwrt cannot be flashed normally.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:56 AM

#

cause my wrt1200ac is currently using the latest version

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:56 AM

#

In which case, you'd flash over serial if it locks ddwrt out, but Linksys usually doesn't.

#

Brands like Buffalo usually do. Even Netgear doesn't lock their routers, nor ASUS or Ubiquiti.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:57 AM

#

so bin, wait 15 minutes, power cycle, webupgrade, wait 15 mins, powercycle?

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:57 AM

#

Yes.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:57 AM

#

okay

#

thank you, that was really helpful!

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:58 AM

#

Only way you don't wait the full 15 mins is if you're 100% certain the upgrade finished. If you're not completely certain, wait out the 15 mins.

#

Keep the jumper and serial console at-ready with a fresh stock firmware image on hand incase you mess up.

bright forge Jul 30, 2018, 5:58 AM

#

i dont have the stock firmware image only the latest

unreal wedge Jul 30, 2018, 5:58 AM

#

I've had to unbrick too many routers, lol.

Get a "stock" copy. Stock can be latest, that's fine.
