Zhaofeng Li | I have two unifi aps at home which work just fine, but I wished I had more control | 00:52:22 |
Zhaofeng Li | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network Zhaofeng Li: Unifi 6 LR is armv8 * Yeah, but too bad the firmware isn't that hackable (I mean you can get root and do stuff, but it's pretty limiting) | 00:52:31 |
hexa | I don't understand the limitations you describe though? | 00:52:39 |

Church | hexa I probably need to forward 25 from wg0 to eth0 on my remote as well right? | 00:53:09 |
Zhaofeng Li | Can you install custom firmware on those things? I thought the updates are all signed | 00:53:22 |
hexa | 1. Connect to the booted device at 192.168.1.20 using username/password
"ubnt".
2. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using SCP.
3. Check the mtd partition number for bs / kernel0 / kernel1
$ cat /proc/mtd
4. Set the bootselect flag to boot from kernel0
$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock6
5. Write the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to both kernel0 as well as kernel1
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock8
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock9
6. Reboot the device. It should boot into OpenWrt.

hexa | In reply to @noah:matrix.chatsubo.cafe hexa I probably need to forward 25 from wg0 to eth0 on my remote as well right? No, iptables just needs to mark that traffic, the rest happens with routing based on that fwmark | 00:55:02 |
Zhaofeng Li | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=634c13c186646aff2badb51a43b248825d0fe5a0 Wow nice, I might actually consider it | 00:55:26 |

Zhaofeng Li | Well, it's an AP so it doesn't matter that much | 00:56:15 |
hexa | yup | 00:56:18 |
Church | Hmm what would be the easiest way for me to see how a packet flows? | 01:00:58 |
hexa | tcpdump to see the packet | 01:01:15 |
hexa | then use ip route get <dest> from <src> | 01:01:27 |
ElvishJerricco | So on a dual band router, does the OS on the router see two different wireless interfaces, one for each band? | 01:28:48 |
hexa | yes | 01:37:50 |
Church | Hmm, is there not a mangle table on nixOS? | 02:43:04 |
Church | Seems to not be there by default at least when I try to insert a rule | 02:43:18 |

hexa | (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netfilter#/media/File:Netfilter-packet-flow.svg) | 03:05:20 |
hexa | it's not available in all chains | 03:06:00 |
Church | [root@teapot:~]# iptables -A prerouting -t mangle -i wg0 -p tcp --dport 25 --jump MARK --set-mark 2
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
| 03:34:17 |
Zhaofeng Li | Chains are case-sensitive. Use PREROUTING | 04:53:03 |
Church | Ah | 05:23:23 |
Zhaofeng Li | Upgrading my routers today and noticed that I'm building the kernels. Turns out I have a kernelPatch to enable CONFIG_INFINIBAND_IPOIB_CM back when I first switched to NixOS from Arch, and it's not enabled in the default kernel. | 06:37:45 |
Zhaofeng Li | So apparently no one except me is using IB with NixOS? 😅 Opening a PR in a bit | 06:38:36 |
