just get an old pc and put pfsense on it
I need additional NICs to do that and also extra space
@Ace I have the 3G
But it's roughly the same
Has it had any issues? My Crappy D-Link has the capacitor plague
Also, How far does the connectivity reach

@Ace No issues, I flashed Padavan firmware onto it though so it technically identifies as an Asus router now. Not tested to see how far it can reach but the connection penetrates the thick stone walls here
I'd highly recommend Padavan, for the 3G at least there's no English firmware and a lot of botnet apps
Cause in my case it's either a The Xiaomi router or a Mikrotik RouterBoard that doesnt have any of the nice stuff like AC
mikrotik is nice if you can program it
the 3 only has 100mb LAN and the 3g has 1000mb so I went for that
since a lot of GAYMURS in here require wired connection
That limits you by bandwidth only tho doesnt it?
i guess the 3G is tecnically better so i'll consider that
https://www.gearbest.com/wireless-routers/pp_290309.html it has the firmware from this now I believe but slightly altered for more features
Padavan is sweet as
Customizable and intuitive user Interface
Hardware offload support (WAN/LAN)
VPN server/client
USB applications: FTP server, Torrent client (Transmission), SMB Server, UPnP/DLNAMedia Server, iTunes Media Server (Firefly)
Support for Entware or Optware Packages
Support for USB 3G/4G modems
ssh/telnet access
Extra DDNS services
Detailed network traffic graph
AiDisk (share your files over the internet)
SAMBA/FTP/Printer Share (via USB port)
the UI is way better too
if you look at the skins in that post
the default Xiaomi one is a mess imo
To be fair it's a router, one time setup, i rarely do anything with mine that isn't troubleshooting, but i guess it's a neat plus
yeah and I found the signal was a bit better with this firmware, but that's just me
you can run a hack to improve the 5g signal through the script
not needed to though, it covers every room in the house
There's also the Wireless pro router that also houses a harddrive
you can just connect an external hard drive to the 3/3G
that's what I do anyway
for FTP i guess?
yeah, I plan to keep some comfy files backed up on it
I'm thinking the big one can host a git server aswell since it's basically linux underneath
I'll get a seperate thing for that i guess
And just get the regular 3
the regular 3 has English
nice
