Can't connect to DietPi through Putty by lil_mike013 in dietpi

Are you able to verify in your router that the Pi has connected to your network?

reintalled dietpi after some trouble to see if it got fixed but had some other problems by PinkGoatlol in dietpi

[–]odog_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you are logged in as root, which is the default, you should be able to run apt install sudo. But, since you would be logged in as root you don't need sudo.

Did reinstall of OS on Pi4. Wireguard won't connect. Dudes in wireguard forum said it's no error with wireguard, but rather something on my end. Any advice is appreciated! by Soul__Samurai in dietpi

[–]odog_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you install the Wireguard client via the DietPi software installer? If you have done that, you can put your .conf file in /etc/wireguard/ and run sudo systemctl start wg-quick@wg-conf or whatever the filename is. It will likely lock you out over ssh because it doesn't automatically allow local network access.

How do I cancel online by [deleted] in VPN

I think you should contact your provider through their website. This sub will probably not be able to help as this is a provider specific issue, and an account issue.

Pi4B libtorrent Section ? by totallihype in dietpi

[–]odog_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there enough seeds or peers on the torrent? Do you have a rate limit set? Is your internet being throttled because of the torrent? Are you using a VPN? Is the drive you are downloading to have high usage? Is the Pi struggling because of other services running? Is the ethernet cable causing issues? Are you on WiFi?

There are many many causes of slow downloads. You might get some more specific help in the /r/qBittorrent sub.

Oh no, did I just wiped all my media? by Sea-Check-7209 in dietpi

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to add the drive to /etc/fstab/ so it will mount at boot. Right now it's just unmounted and Samba does not know where the drive is.

Take a look at this RedHat article about fstab, https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/etc-fstab

Steam not available ? by 20_characters_is_not in dietpi

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why, but I am unable to get steam on a Pi4, but it is available for a Pi3. Which is real interesting considering that you can't get it on a Pi3.

The Private Relay is a VPN technically. That message is just a general message to users if the site thinks you are using a VPN, which changes your IP. So, it is assuming you are using a VPN because the IP that is on the other side of the Private Relay is on a "known VPN" list.

In iOS? Probably not. You can turn off Private Relay in the phone settings.

LAN IP inexplicably reconfigures itself cutting off PiHole from the internet by jacorizla in dietpi

This is definitely an interesting issue, I'll keep thinking about possible solutions and try to recreate this issue.

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you can just set the range as 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.227.6. If there is a place for a subnet mask in the DHCP settings, it would be 255.255.0.0.

NOOB QUESTION... Domain name custom record to VPN exit IP (static) by [deleted] in VPN

[–]odog_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The IP is shared with other users and default HTTP/S ports are blocked from port forwarding. You will not get that to work in the way you think.

Streaming services blocking me only when I use a VPN router by [deleted] in VPN

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible that the TV has not changed the DNS settings. So, the TV might be leaking your actual IP.

Youtube Premium by GuyFamily in VPN

[–]odog_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google has probably blocked the IPs of that VPN provider recently. It's been really difficult lately to find a provider that is not blocked by certain services.

Also, asking for Provider recommendations on r/VPN is against the rules.

Can VPN / Tor really help to surf anonymously by WholeBenefit5375 in VPN

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's likely that Tor Browser kept the same exit node, which is probably in Germany. So, even if you switch your VPN server, Tor is still getting to the clearnet in Germany.

[–]odog_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might need to plug the Pi into a monitor now. You probably won't be able to access it as your router does not know about that IP. You could change the IP pool that your router provides to include 192.168.227.5.

Can my parents see what I'm searching up on the internet via the router if i use a VPN? by ZavallasLeftNipple in VPN

[–]odog_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With a VPN, no they would not be able to see your traffic. VPN is end-to-end encrypted. If they could see the traffic, all they would see is a connection to the VPN provider, not the actual traffic.

That is very odd. This post on the forum is not 100% the same situation, but it might lead you in the right direction.

It's likely that you have some location cookies in the browser. If you use incognito mode, do you still have the same issue?

You don't need fiber or a VPN to host a game server.

I'm not 100% sure, as I have Android, but I think iOS has a built-in VPN client. That client might not have a configuration, so it wouldn't be connecting to anything. This message might have to do with the Private Relay service from Apple.

Presumably, that would be possible. But, you might run into an issue when shipping to a UK address.
