Managing #OpenWRT via #Ansible is a breeze. I just love the fact that all the settings, all the #firewall rules, all the good stuff is configured with config files.

I've created 6 #VLANs, all of them completely #isolated, with a few allowed traffic rules. I've even isolated the #Windows #PC of my roommate inside of the #trusted #network.

Now his #XiaomiTVBox can't scan the network anymore (yes it actually does that. I've noticed it while working on my packet monitoring project).

@neuroexception ever tried Opnsense? Why did you choose Openwrt?
@watchfulcitizen OPNSense will be the second firewall. OpenWRT runs great on my Fritzbox which is why i chose it
@neuroexception Fair. I only have experience with Opnsense and I can really recomend it. If your having two routers, watch out for double NAT.
