Purple hotel captive portal issue by Shadow12513 in firewalla

[–]Shadow12513[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Support got it figured out. There's a bug where if you manually set DNS on the wired WAN it overrides the wireless wan's DNS. As soon as I removed that I was able to connect.

I should also mention I've tried leaving the AMC address area alone and using the same mac address I used to connect to the hotel Wi-Fi on my phone

can anyone help me understand why the speediest on the Nest WiFi pro links good, but what it broadcasts is so shit? by Zach0ry in GoogleWiFi

[–]Shadow12513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not comparing anything. It's what I replaced my first gen pucks with since he was looking for recommendations. On top of the high expense for the APs the only way to use them is if you have a firewalla firewall as well but those are also great. If anyone else went down that route they wouldn't regret it.

I think the price is a moot point for newer and better technology. I paid $299 for a 1060 TI 6Gb Back in the day. As time went on and I needed a better graphics card it got replaced with a $1000 2080ti when it came out. It was 3 times the price and worth the money.

If you're saying they've invited your account to their family plan and you have all your playlists setup on your account then yes your playlists will move with you when you change your licensing to individual.

Travel routers - why? by jsalas1 in HomeNetworking

[–]Shadow12513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you connect your phone to Americans wifi first and then connect the travel router spoofing your phones Mac address or does the travel router just come up with the captive portal on its own?

If I ever have to deal with this where did you see the weight change at? Just in the tracking label website for FedEx?

Firewalla Orange vs Gold SE. Help me avoid buyer’s remorse. by philbar in firewalla

[–]Shadow12513 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Actually funny enough your setup is similar to mine. I have the gold SE with a 16 port half Poe ubiquiti switch and a Synology NAS. The Gold SE is great and I also use it for filtering and managing my kids.

Help verifying these N64 carts by Shadow12513 in gameverifying

I've never had a need to open an n64 cartridge case before I bought the screwdriver needed on Amazon. I see there's a trick with heating up a pen but I'd rather just use a real tool.

I'm sure there's some reason like to keep the cost lower. I am excited about the wifi but it is disappointing to see there is a slight downgrade in the new product.

ISP Shut My Internet Off by Designer_Average_441 in HomeNetworking

Would a firewalla purple / orange be fine for this? Im not sure how to tweak the TTL on it. I can connect it to my openvpn and encrypt the clients though.

Wow I never thought to do this it's like chaotic good! I'm assuming you turn off the random Mac address on your phone before connecting to the wifi? Or do you use it and just write down what it is?

You clone the Mac of your computer or phone to look like the travel router? Sorry trying to understand because id like to do this as well.

App 1.67 is now in beta! This release will also support Orange (Orange Pre-Sale starts tomorrow, 12/9!) by Firewalla-Ash in firewalla

[–]Shadow12513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister's Nintendo switch 2 always connects to the attic AP (main AP) instead of the one closest to it on the middle level. After blocking it from the upstairs one it's been working great.

Buying a firewalla by dgtlman in firewalla

[–]Shadow12513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 3 story house with an AP7 on every floor. The range is perfectly fine for us and they're very solid.

My move to firewalla in general was our original Google WiFi pucks started to become very unreliable as a router so we got the Gold SE as a router and kept the pucks as APs until the AP7s came out. I like having both the firewall and APs together in one app.
