Honestly, I found it really easy. I don't have a background in IT or anything either.

What did you find difficult? Setting custom firewall rules is harder to understand, but the general functionality of setting up a NAT and even installing and configuring ZenArmor were super super easy.

OPNSense is generally pretty easy, more powerful, and more open than pfsense. I started with pf but went to OPNSense and have loved it!

Are you sure that docker is configured properly? What do you see if you do docker ps

There are mumble -> matrix bridges you can set up. It doesn't integrate with element, it integrates with matrix, for which matrix is a client.

That won't keep it constantly in sync though

This will work, as long as you both have the same client version.

Can you ping the two devices private IP's from each other though? That narrows down where the issue is.

Can you ping the tablet from the device running searx, or the device running searx from your tablet? Termux is a good app to test.

What device are you trying to access it on? The same device?

Ahh got it. My search history says I read the follow up, but not the initial article.

That's ridiculous and unsettling, especially that they claimed it wasn't possible initially. I wonder if they were not aware that it was possible or whether they were lying. I'm not sure which one is worse.

I have a eufy doorbell cam, and I'm genuinely very happy with it. Since it's not actually looking into my home I'm less concerned about this particular security issue. I hope they do better moving forward.

Is your local IP a private, or public IP?

Does it start with 192, for example?

How are you determining your local IP?

Hello All!

I just purchased a Intel Celeron box from AliExpress to replace (and hopefully improve) the functions of my raspberry pi running wg-easy and pihole. I'd like this new box to handle DHCP, firewalling/ad blocking, and act as my wireguard server.

Currently I'm connecting my Internet modem (thankfully not a router, so no NAT) to my TPlink Archer AX21's WAN port and then using the LAN ports to connect to my devices. I see that I can turn off NAT on the TPLink, but I assume I wouldn't be able to use the new device as a DHCP server if I do, right? I could put the TPLink in AP mode but I'm not sure if that shuts off the WAN or LAN ports.

Is the best move to leave the TPLink in router mode (I'm not sure this matters) and plug the firewall into one of the LAN ports? I can do this but it'll require some re-running of cables so I wanted to check first.
