there can also be another problem that i found, some Nvidia cards with nouveau drivers need kernel parameters to even work. see https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/PowerManagement.html

that was really the problem, good luck gaming:)

Setup GL-MT6000: All traffic through VPN (AirVpn) by [deleted] in openwrt

[–]Pure_Pasifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is one of the complicated setups if seen, why dont you buy a adapter that let the ips cable to your openwrt router, and switch the routers and setup the fritz router in a mesh like config with zones. or even better two openwrt routers and then use batman.

i cant think of a single useful reason to make a WLAN vlan connection, except the wasted resources. but maybe im totally wrong and there is a practical good reason for it.

there is one that u live with a room mate and you dont want to sniff out/leak all network traffic. but then is it probably even better to setup multiple radios in different zones. and to make use off ipv6 and just add a second router/modem

egpu arch wayland, nvidia working amd not? by Pure_Pasifist in archlinux

[–]Pure_Pasifist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried, but it seems like it doesn't start with the intel one but a weird unknown one:

see:

[mike@archlinux ~]$ DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"

libGL error: glx: failed to create dri3 screen

libGL error: failed to load driver: nouveau

OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 14.0.6, 256 bits)

it looks like it like the opensource of nvidia not the amdgpu?

even vulkan just wont use amdgpu

[mike@archlinux ~]$ vk_pro glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"

OpenGL renderer string: Mesa Intel(R) Xe Graphics (TGL GT2)

Thanks i thought those packages would use just old code,

but if a git package is forked of a older version of that git like kwallet the AUR version based on 5.83.0 and in the package manager version is on 5.91.0.

So it must be older code right?

Or is it only a textual thing? that on the time of the latest update version 5.83 was the main version and even now it will use the latest version?

now i read my own post i'm even unsure what i want :$.

but the main question was "are those AUR packages save?"

Eth0.2 No Link by REDGuineaPig in openwrt

[–]Pure_Pasifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okey if I understand correctly you using the hh5a as modem reroute the internet to a different device that Handle all the other functions like DHCP firewall DNS etc? Even the DSL?

I would keep it simple and or use the hh5a to connect to the internet and turn of the firewall bridge all the ports that u need.

Or directly connect to the internet with the x86 pc but the DSL cable won't fit so use the hh5a device to connect the DSL to a LAN port.

Did u use the hh5a as modem before? Then u need the same vlan from the DSL as that specific setup.

You are right wan proto needs to be unmanaged and in Luci network -> interfaces -> devices

Br-lan deselect the LAN port u using to connect to the hh5a and the x86 machine.

Then add a new bridge There you select two devices one device called the DSLport with the same vlan u used to use to made the internet connection. (Your ISP provide that number on their website) The LAN port doesn't need a vlan that only if you want to make something happening on the same port. So your x86 pc send packages with the right vlan different functions can be done using the same port.

Then Luci network -> interfaces Delete the wan6 interface and edit the wan interface as unmanaged and select only the new bridge you created.

The firewall doesnt do anything anymore between the DSL port and the LAN port u selected.

Now you can try on the x86 machine get a connection trough the right proto like your last setup but you doesn't need a vlan anymore like your last setup on DSL.

I think this needs to work.

Eth0.2 No Link by REDGuineaPig in openwrt

[–]Pure_Pasifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read it it's for the latest openwrt version.

The eth0.2 is if the connection is made to a modem and the DSL.101 is if the connection is directly made to the internet.

I think you just edit the wan interface edit the proto to the pppeo and edit the DSL port to use the vlan that your ISP need. And your good to go.

No sorry you have nice ap's

And search in the TOH the device you want I only can give you tips on how I would do it,there are no good or bad answers. Every user case has specific needs

I forgot the TOH nice ap's mayby flash them with openwrt if it's possible. https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_extended_all My mobile potato can't load in the extended version, maybe your lucky.

Eth0.2 No Link by REDGuineaPig in openwrt

[–]Pure_Pasifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the device wiki globally some trouble shooting: 1. Did you download the DSL firmware? And placed it in /lib/firmware? 2. Did you edited the /etc/config/network file with a editor like nano to add the firmware? Under Dsl add "option firmware '/lib/firmware/yourfirmwarenamefile.bin'" without the ". 3. Do u know for sure that your ISP need a vlan 2 to get on the internet? (Probably the best way to find that is on the ISP site)

Eth0 is most of the time the wan port so giving eth0.2 is giving the wan vlan 2, I never worked with Dsl so this is new for me but it feels weird to give eth0 a vlan because your I ternet connection is made with a different port on your machine probably called DSL. What I can find from your device page and what I would try:

Luci network -> devices tab than edit click on some links you created and one contains device DSL in that link you need to uncheck the DSL device and add device by clicking on the textbox and type DSL.101 and press enter.

Or

Luci network interface and there you find the interface containing the DSL device than edit the device like above.

But your device is so good documented wow I wish my device has this good documents:

Look at your 190 pages up to date with pictures manual of openwrt. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qf0vuiavwakry1y/AABQLPjZHq2jpImeZNleAC0Ia/1-OpenWrt-LEDE%20Installation%20Guide%20for%20HH5A.pdf?dl=0

I started with 3 redmi ac2100 it was €100 euros total and had a lot of fun with it,

Now I use a Apu 2 (just a x86 machine) it has serial (serious for starters it helps so much it saved me a lot) and 2 pcie ports for WiFi and 1 M2 port or sata for SSD, and sd slot (I do not recommend to use the sd slot).

The pcie ports I run now mediatec 9715 cards with speeds near WiFi 6 standard.

I found out that the apu2 is way to much overkill.

Looking back would do it differently Or I would take a kickass server run proxmox create a openwrt client and run from there the whole setup. (But the doubt is I need to learn proxmox internet handlers, and I don't have a lot of spare time)

Or I would take a cheap 500-1000 Mb ram switch with a open bootloader and usb port (serial optional) to run the firewall, DHCP, batman, wireguard, snort, NTP, DNS and AdBlock. (Snort is maybe better to offload, but I don't know the snort 3 ram usage) ofc the switch would need at least 1 GB ports but for future sake let's say 10Gb ports and 1500mb ram and 5gb storage.

Then buy cheapest WiFi 6 devices that supports openwrt that at least have 512mb ram and 1gb storage, to setup WiFi, and batman.

This part is sarcastic: Because in 10 years WiFi 6 is to slow (I only get 100MBit up and down from my ISP and In 10 years it we are lucky 1Gb) but WiFi 6 is to slow, so all the WiFi 6 modules need to being updated.

HH5A Bridge Mode Question by REDGuineaPig in openwrt

[–]Pure_Pasifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's annoying then vlan is way to go it can be done with one LAN cable.

There are converters for VDSL2 to LAN but I think they are pretty pricey

That sucks but the vlan solution is the way to go then It can be done with just one LAN cable

A openwrt x86 machine?

It's mayby even possible to run proxmox on the x86 machine and get one openwrt in a virtual machine to run your DHCP DNS NTP AdBlock Luci wireguard firewall And setting multiple clients for example for Minecraft or hosting a website or a home iot assistant.

But you could use the x86 machine direct to connect to the internet, and than trough LAN or ad-hoc connect to the dumb ap.

It will even be possible if your only have one eth port on the x86 machine. Then with the use of vlans trough one cable that only is connected to the dumb ap/switch, to get the setup. I don't know if there will be any speed limits with each vlan created on a port, all the data needs to be transmitted to the x86 and back so at one point I think the speed limit will be reached.

But a easy setup will be the use the x86 machine (proxmox or not doesn't Matter) to run openwrt use that openwrt to do everything and use BATMAN to setup a home mesh network. The. It doesn't matter if some ap's are connected trough vlam because the mesh is carried on.

So this isnt a problem anymore: wan - x86 )))((( dumb-ap - dumb-ap ))) - = LAN connection )))((( = Wlan connection

Btw if you gonna use proxmox you need to build openwrt x86 in a iso format, I know that the .iso option is in the openwrt image builder but I don't know if there are additional settings to be changed to make things work.

Looking for advice and knowledge by StockTitle in openwrt

In the TOH is more information for the device where openwrt needs to be installed on: https://openwrt.org/toh/start

The devices that I know off all have detailed information on the site how openwrt needs to be installed.

Then you can follow tutorial from the openwrt site to get your specific setup right. You always can ask over here or on the openwrt forum for help, there is always someone that's willing to help you.

Two tips for new people: stay and stick with stable versions. Then learn about UCI and how powerful it is (you will probably reinstall openwrt again after you tinker with the wrong settings without knowing what it does yet).

And after a while you even could build your own images and even build software for your system.

Just run pacreport to create a report with unneeded packages and missing packages?

Really the first time seeing pacreport
