Hunter's comment

i've been looking into firewall 'applications' recently. i've been wanting to mess with AP's again and build a local MESH network for a client that's gotten back in touch again about building a kinda RFID/GEO hunting game that uses online certificates collection as rewards (i'll probably hunt that actually)

► Easy User Interface
► Stateful Firewall
► Traffic Shaper
► Two-Factor Authentication ( 2FA )
► Captive Portal
► Virtual Private Network
► High Availability CARP
► Filtering Caching Proxy
► Inline Intrusion Prevention
► Multi-WAN Load Balancing
► High Performance TCP/HTTP Load Balancer
► Issue Let's Encrypt Certificates
► Full Mesh VPN routing using Tinc
► Backup to Google Drive
► Support for Virtual Installs
► Netflow Exporter
► Network Flow Monitoring
► Built-in Reporting & Analysis
► Plugin Support
► REST API

i remember playing around with m0nowall back in the day and while liking it, it was a bit too hardcore, this seems like a good middle ground to what i need.

Interesting and certainly worth looking into a bit more. I like the list as it shows diversity. Nice hunt!

Open source everything is the way we need to go in the future. Our world is such that entities that profit off the work of others is simply immoral and unfair. We see mega corps patenting things that they did .5% of the innovation yet taking 100% of the rewards.

Mesh networks are a big thing too. I cant wait until they become bigger and we are able to route around the ISPs.

Great hunt.

it's funny you know i've been thinking about mesh networks a lot over the last few years, i've got a perfect place to do it as well in europe, i even think we could get some decent kit fairly cheaply, maybe a fork of a fast blockchain that could be served up locally over a solar powered mesh network of value is in the future! :) thanks for the comment and upvote.

Now how much Technology improve that much Hackers also growing.

We need strong firewall to protect our network.

I think it is good choice.

Happy Hunting
