For about 2 years, I've had the following internet configuration at home: ASUS RT-AC86U (with Merlin firmware) being my main router, and Netgear R6330 used as a bridge for 2 Ethernet-only devices: desktop+SMB-file-server and an MFP printer. After moving to a different place, I've restored the same configuration, and upon powering everything up, things worked, but then something happened next day and R6330 was not connected to RT-AC86U. I've done the factory reset for R6330, and since that I... Read more ..read more

Running the Open VPN server on a Netgear R9000. When I create the four configuration files from within the router configuration page, one of the files downloaded is named ca.crt. The file contains information about the certificate authority. Is this certificate authority information embedded in the firmware and downloaded direct from the router or is it downloaded from a Netgear server ..read more

I've got an Orbi RBR50v2 that was flashed to voxel RBR50, but then I flashed it to voxel RBS50 (with changing the headers, via this method: https://www.reddit.com/r/orbi/comments/ik25t8/converting_rbr50_to_rbs50_easy_method ) Since then my orbi is full white and when I connect to the interface, I just get a "404 Not Found". I cannot upload firmware via TFTP because it doesn't get in the mode to accept firmware (no amber blinking led, goes directly to green and eventually the ip goes up). I've tried to hold the...

I'm running an rbr/rbs 50 with latest voxel firmware.....I bought a second rbs50 to add , synced it, got it working.. I then updated to voxel , not noticing it had quickly auto updated past 2524. Now its has the slow pulsing white ring. Thats a soft brick? I followed the TFTP process linked in here, https://kb.netgear.com/000059633/Ho...uter-using-a-TFTP-client-on-Microsoft-Windows but cant seem to get in it? That link seems to describe how to do...

Hello I recently updated my Orbi RBR50 to the latest custom Voxel firmware. I am now trying to run a VPN in the router for the entire network. I read Voxels instructions but I am too much of a noob to do it right. Is it taking a USB, formatting it to EXT4, putting the OpenVPN profile in a folder (the one recommended by Voxel) and pasting the OpenVPN config file in there? Or is it something else? If anyone has done this with ProtonVPN, is there anything else I should add to the config... Read more ..read more

Hello, I will describe here my experience regarding the creation of an additional SSID (on top of the main and guest ones) on a R7800 in AP mode, with @Voxel's firmware, and having it in its own VLAN. So I have my main router (no wifi) under OpenWrt. The router is connected with ethernet to the port WAN of the R7800 that is in AP mode. The R7800 has the latest Voxel's firmware (V1.0.2.106SF at the time), with an ssh access set up, an external drive connected through USB. The R7800... Read more ..read more
