I was aware of Ubiquity’s past GPL violations and it was the only reason I avoided them. According to Wikipedia they settled a GPL violation in 2017 but I wasn’t aware of the recent issue. Looks like their Wikipedia page could use an upda

Right, portscanning won’t work on Wireguard. Port knocking can provide an additional layer of protection against an unknown vulnerability, even for Wireguard. Sorry for the confusion.

It’s more evidence that you should assume everything is vulnerable and layer protection. For a home network simple multi-port knocking should be enough (combined with --ctstate NEW even better). If port knocking or SPA is too cumbersome th

Unfortunately the info provided by about:support doesn’t separate changes made via the gui and changes made via about:config. It also includes settings that may have been altered by Add-ons. Another benefit to using a user.js file is that

Many of these sites suggest making edits via “about:config”. The problem is it’s difficult to keep track of which settings you’ve altered. I highly recommend you use a user.js [1] file. The best part is you can make notes so later you kn

As a Linux user would this be an option for installing Bios and Intel ME updates on machines with Windows only tools available? Or is Windows-To-Go still a safer option?

Xiaomi sells routers in this price range that ship with OpenWrt. The buildroot even has config options for branding! It costs them nothing for the OS. It costs D-Link more to produce their mess.

I looked into this but Go on a little OpenWrt router seemed… silly. If you’re interested in something lightweight for OpenWrt give this a try: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/dns/doh_dnsmasq.
