+1 for RB260GSP. The hex does not natively support VLANs and you need to enable bridge filtering for VLAN functions. It is little complicated than the simple configuration in the RB260

Run 'top' and in the third line check the value of 'wa' . Is that high ?

The CPU utilization is not so high, but the load average is. Where is this downloading to ?

Selling my Erlite-3 router as i am not using it these days. The inbuilt USB drive went bad, replaced with a 4 GB drive and the original power adapter failed, replaced with another adapter. This is not a wireless router and it is not easy to configure compared to a typical home router. Please...

You may need to install the kernel modules for the ETH Hat to use it

Got TIG stack installed in another lxc @tech.monk did you try it ?

Pi-hole is running in an lxc container. I was not able to run lxc with the Rpi image from Openwrt provided image. I had to compile Openwrt from sources. Once lxc is functional, you can pipe the pi-hole installation script. Networking is a bit tricky, but can be done. There are lots of resources...

Just finished setting up Raspberry Pi4 as router running Openwrt. The wireless is handled by a proper wifi router. The setup has pi-hole running in lxc as well. For those who have a Pi lying around (Pi3 also will do) can give it a try

What kind of features are you looking for in the switch ?

If you dont need PoE, check this out

Please see the document here The main router referred in the document is your modem and the access point is the TP-link router

Zeek is a well known network monitoring system. You can feed it the flow information by mirroring the appropriate ports of your router with interesting traffic. It works nice on a raspberry pi. Beware, compiling it on pi will take quite some time

I followed the instructions here for my Raspberry Pi 4 heating issue. The fan comes on when the temps exceed 62 and switches off at 50. This can be changed in the config files to your requirements. The circuit is very simple with just 1 transistor, diode and resistor. Without speed control the...

I have Linux Mint, Opensuse and Archlinux installed in my desktop. It is MX Linux that I found most appropriate for my Celeron J1800 based mini-pc which I use most of the time

Please open a new thread and share the details.

I suggest you go with a cheap Mikrotik HAP AC lite first and see if it suits your requirements and is easy enough for you to manage. If that works for you, then go for the RB4011 etc. As somebody mentioned in the thread already its got a steep learning curve

I am running Pi-hole in the old Raspberry Pi B (256 MB RAM) . I have not faced any issues so far. The load average is typically 0.1 -0.2 and the memory usage is below 20%

The Pi4 needs a fan to keep it from throttling. The small fans available are noisy, especially when everything else is quiet. Some simple circuit and code is available if you search the internet to keep things sane

RB750Gr3 - If you want to do VLANs, it is slightly complex as it lacks a proper switch chip. It can be done but not straightforward. Also note that it can do hardware forwarding only on one bridge. If you create another bridge you dont get hardware acceleration. Other than that it is a stellar...

Look at mikrotik routers and access points. They are very flexible and most things can be achieved by using the gui. Setup Pi-hole and vpn services if worried about security. It is preferable to do these in small steps. It will be difficult to get everything done in one go In Openwrt you can do...
