Another successful OpenBSD setup

I’ve been buying these little boxes from AliExpress for years to use as firewalls and routers. My oldest one is almost 9 years old now! OpenBSD installs just fine. Just a BIOS tweak to always boot up after power is restored.

    I picked up a 7 year old Netgear modem/router on eBay that has replaced my ISP modem/router. The WiFi is better, and I can port forward without taking all the cables out of the back (yeah that’s a thing with the ISP one) and forward traffic through my Adguard DNS. Well worth the £25 I bought it for.

    Also if it starts annoying me I can throw OPENWRT on it and play with that instead.
