Yeah, now approaching 5 AM pretty quickly.
But the new router *is* cool in that it is working as expected, running
open firmware. :-)

And now just after 6 AM. I'm *finally* starting to get too tired to do
much more; I hit the wall (metaphorically) about 90 minutes ago and
decided trying to learn how to configure freeradius was futile in my
current condition, as was trying to work out configuring a virtual
network interface for the open wifi I want to set up that's restricted to
minimal ports and a fraction of the total bandwidth available.
Those projects will wait for another day.
I got QoS running, and the router is acting as a USB print server as
well. And it's doing the port forwarding I need, and I even got it to
mount a USB flash drive, so I should be able to install a fair bit more
software after I spend some time configuring it to relocate its
filesystem to the flash drive. Basically start it off on its own flash,
and then swap the root partition out after it boots.

I'm pleased, certainly. Hopefully this will mean I don't have to
micromanage bandwidth utilisation during the workday, and my work phone
will be able to get the bandwidth it needs for a clear signal, regardless
of whether someone's streaming a film from Netflix or not (that'd be a
good test).

Yeah, I heard about the recording schedule. Just can't wait for it to
get here. And "Stupid Boys in Cars" (aka "Top Gear"), which comes back
later this month (the 21st IIRC).

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I finally went to bed after my wife came out at 7 AM
and greeted me. Slept from about 7:30 until a little after noon.

Yeah, very much so. First thing I wanted to see this morning was the
bandwidth and utilisation charts, since I left a few things running while
I was sleeping.
But *really* geeky is being excited about being able to run tcpdump on
the router for packet analysis. :-)

I get marched to bed by my ear with the threat of taking snips to the

LOL; she knew I had a new toy to play with, so knew what to expect. She
also benefits, because her access to the net is more reliable, so there's
some self-interest in play as well. :-)

Probably later; I've got some movies to watch and Doctor Who should be
ready for me to watch in a couple hours.

LOL; they may be looking for Laura Chappell - it's the sort of thing
she'd think was pretty geeky (you probably don't know who I'm talking
about, thinking about it - she founded the Protocol Analysis Institute
and Wireshark Univeristy; used to work for Novell, where she worked on
packet analysis tools. One of the best presenters I've ever seen, and
when it comes to low-level network traffic analysis, she *is* without a
doubt the best in the industry).
