This is an introduction to OpenWRT, a FOSS home router operating system. I will skip over basic network settings and focus on special things that OpenWRT enables you to do in a home network.
- Picking the right OpenWRT hardware
- VLAN, guest network, isolating untrusted devices
- Multiple WANs
- Policy-based routing, site-to-site VPN
- Blocking risky IP and domains
- Special WAN configuration: VPN and TOR
