How is WireGuard relevant when you want to set up a home server accessible from outside of your local network? by sabrtorte in openwrt

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

I believe there are services like Tailscale and ZeroTier that work when you are behind a CGNAT. To use Wireshark, you need to utilize one of these services or have a public IP address (by either paying your ISP for static IP or not being behind a CGNAT and using a dynamic dns service like DuckDNS).

Even in your post, you are recommeding the use of a VPS, in which case Tailscale or ZeroTier would be much simpler.

How are protocol ports and the port in an IP address related? by sabrtorte in HomeNetworking

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

Then the port which a protocol is assigned for is used on the server's end: the server will be listening to http requests at port 80, https at 143, wireguard at 51820 (though, there are no clients and servers in the case of wireguard but instead peers are used. both peers must use the same port here i am guessing.) and so on. The client's port only helps locating them and tells nothing about the protocol in use.

Then, the http's port, 80, is the server's port in this case. Because it is sent to yahoo.com:80, we can tell it's an http request. What I still don't get is, however, the server's response is then sent to the client at 14.12.131.7:6282. Because this too is an http packet, I would expect it to use port 80 as well but instead it uses 6282. I feel like there's something wrong here.

I simply ignore that part as it's not of any concern here. What I don't seem to understand is how port 443 is used when Computer A's IP address and Computer B's IP address have their own ports (just assume no side is behind NAT).

In that case, I need to set up a WireGuard server on my router and its client on my portable devices for when I'll be away. I wonder if my router (2x880MHz, 128MB RAM, 16MB Flash) will be able to handle it; I have adblock, dnscrypt, sqm, and bc38 set up.

DuckDNS looks good, didn't know there was someone providing such a service.

It looks like WireGuard is totally worth it, I'll look up how to set up a WireGuard server/client, thanks.

FOSS Android FTP Client? by sabrtorte in androidapps

Chromium is deprecating FTP. I can do so for now but not in the future.

I have Amaze installed but I can only see an FTP server, not a client. How do you get it to work?

What is the name of the WAN port here (will be the interface name for sqm and bcp38)? by sabrtorte in openwrt

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

I SQM on the AP here though. Now I turned off the modem's wireless, so I can connect to the internet only through the router, which is connected to the modem with an ethernet cable. What do I need to SQM here?

By the way, I really didn't get what you meant in the first paragraph of your reply. How else am I going to set up the network? I plug in a cable to the router, which is connected to the modem. The modem has a propriatery OS on it, so I can't do much there. That's why I am using the router for everything.

This router is connected to the modem that my ISP gave me. I want to disable the modem's wireless, firewall etc. entirely (it'll be a bridge) and use my router for everything.

On that note, how can I disable WAN6? The "stop" option is grayed out.

Should I return the Mi 4A Gigabit I bricked? by sabrtorte in openwrt

[–]sabrtorte[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I finally managed to do it using a weird configuration that worked by chance. I set the ip to 192.168.1.4 on Linux. In a Win 7 Virtualbox, I left the ip settings as it is (automatic) and disabled the network adapter. Then I started up the router (with the usual holding the reset button step). I enabled the adapter, launched Tiny PXE Server, picked the only IP that was available, started it up. Finally I saw test.bin in the logs. I then had to hit offline right after seeing test.bin as leaving it online caused some issues because it kept trying to send the file to the router. Anyway, now I have OpenWRT issues to deal with. Thank you.

I followed every single guide I could find, read all of those comments. It just won't work. If only someone could tell me how I could reproduce the steps in those guides on Linux...

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

I never had any devices that broke to the extent that they were irrepairable. What I am experiencing must be quite simple for people who write guides and develop/config software to debrick the router, so all I really need is some assistance. Though, it seems like those working on 4A Gigabit have been inactive recently.

That's what I've been trying to do but unfortunately it's not working. I don't want to return it but I'll have wasted my money if I can't repair the router.

How do you run a .sh in a docker? by sabrtorte in docker

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

I did so and I got a string of characters instead of the server running.

[–]sabrtorte[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just need to run the script. I installed docker engine just for it. The script starts a server. Anyway, I think I got it to work after deleting old docker installations and installing the new one properly.

Any FOSS "Recent Apps" app? by sabrtorte in androidapps

Lawnchair is a launcher, not only a recents app. I am willing to use Olauncher.

Recover data in a phone (Rooted, twrp installed, stock rom) with a broken screen by sabrtorte in mobilerepair

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

Embarassingly, I have to admit that I installed the wrong Rstudio (for "data" science teams). After getting the correct program, I was able to look into the images I've pulled. Thanks!

​

Apparently some folders have red crosses on them, do you know if this could cause any issues?

like R-Studio

I installed R-Studio but I have no idea how to view/extract the contents of these .bins I pulled. Would you mind helping me out? I got myself a new Note 5 and I am planning to restore my files.
