@namedbird @drscriptt personally, I think #CPE / #Router manufacturers should've standardized upon *.router.local (i.e. fritzbox.router.local) since .local has been reserved for such purposeS... per #IETF via #IANA & #ICANN...

  • Espechally since the average "#normie #consoomer" isn't gonna own their own domain or even setup an internal #DNS resolver to manage their #LAN at home under *.local.domain.example to make it work.

In fact most corporate users don't even enroll #FQDN|s on their network (#Universities do based off my observation!)…

So, OpenWRT didn't boot on my Orange Pi 5 Plus. I compiled the image correctly, flashed it to an eMMC, and...nothing.

My next option is to use an Ubuntu 24.04 Rockchip image for the Orange Pi 5 Plus. It's the most vanilla Ubuntu experience one can get on that board, AFAIK.

There are a couple guides I'm following to setup Ubuntu as a router. Both guides say to use DHCP for the WAN interface. I'm just not sure if that would work with my ISP modem in bridge mode. Does anyone know how this would work? Would it just receive the ISP gateway information automatically?

I can try it out first, but if it doesn't receive the default gateway from my ISP then I might have to configure the WAN interface to use static IPs, which hopefully would work.

First I'm going to read these guides thoroughly and write up a note in Obsidian on how I'm going to setup the Ubuntu router. There are a few things I want to do differently from the guides, namely using firewalld instead of iptables, and use Pihole with local Unbound recursive DNS resolver. I'd want Pihole to also act as the DHCP server.

As far a wifi is concerned, the Orange Pi 5 Plus board does not have a built in wifi card, so I'd have to use a dongle with hostapd, or I can use a separate standalone access point device that I connect to the LAN switch via ethernet. I'm leaning toward the latter, as it seems easier. It turns out I already have an access point device that supports WiFi 6, which I originally bought as a range repeater for my previous place of residence. Apparently it doubles as an AP, too.

I kind of want to get my opnSense router up and running again, and use a DMZ for public-facing web stuff. Then I won't have to pay for a VPS.

But if I do get it running then I'd have to setup another device as a wifi hotspot in order to get wifi. Right now everything just works with the ISP modem.

I wonder if there is some kind of wifi hotspot device that I can just connect to a switch via ethernet. I won't have to worry about setting up hostap on another device.

Citrix Netscaler schon wieder sehr hohes Risiko

Die Produktlinie NetScaler begann als Marke der US-Firma Citrix. Inzwischen sind beides getrennte Marken unter dem Dach einer Firma mit Namen Cloud Software Group (CSG). - Aktuell gibt es Warnungen vor drei Sicherheitslücken in mehreren NetScaler Produkten. Die schlimmste der Sicherheitslücken, CVE 2025-5777, wird mit einem Risiko von 9,3 (von 10) eingestuft. Oder sollte man sagen Hintertür? Die Sicherheitslücke beruht nämlich darauf, dass Eingaben nicht ausreichend geprüft werden ("insufficient input validation"). Ah, ja.
