Finally got around to updating my #OpenBSD router (new hardware) pairing it together with an #OpenWRT AP, funnelling everything through a separate #raspberrypi zero running #pihole

Bonus: my Raspberry Pi 400 is now setup with OpenBSD's httpd / relayd - ready to host all of my web projects locally!

That was sure a lot of buzz words...I'll gather my detailed thoughts and breakdown everything into a blog post soon 😄

@bt waiting on that blogpost, sounds very interesting!

Do you have a blog post on your router with configs and such to show new users how to go about setting up their own OpenBSD router ?

@justine

I have this older one: https://btxx.org/posts/openbsd-router/

But I'm no longer using the old Mac Mini (and hacky USB-to-ethernet setup). I think I'll have to break this update into a multi part blog post (first basic router with openwrt wifi, then bringing in the pi-hole, then self hosted web server...maybe we'll see!)

@bt @justine

I'm curious to hear more about your experiences with the openwrt ap.

@bt I'm curious why you chose a separate Pi or pihole as against running adguard+ on OpenBSD.

@argv

I originally had my own adblock.conf being fed through unbound on the OpenBSD router itself, but I prefer separation of tasks. Everything should try to do one thing really well etc.
