I don't see that anyone has recommended this, and it may not be feasible but....you could plug a machine directly in to you ISP's endpoint and do a speed test from there. And then plug directly in to your OPNSense fw and check from there.

You might not have full bandwidth on the public side of your fw.  It may not even be an OPNSense issue.

Just donated.  Thank you for your work on this.  It is a blessing.

Are you sure you're losing internet access, and it's not just DNS failing?

I ask because I noticed that after 5 to 8 days, and it ended up being Unbound needing to be restarted.  Which btw, didn't work properly once Unbound was in a bad state.  So I set up a cron job to restart Unbound every 5 days or so.

Just a thought....hope it helps.

If I'm not mistaken you could also use their family DNS servers that [attempt to] block porn and malware. 1.1.1.3 & 1.0.0.3

You should correct the thread title.
The actual title is not the real situation.
There is no way readable you described in the past with a hack concerning opnsense.
So be so serious and change the title to whatever, i was hacked or so.

THIS!

Well I'm not sure if this would compatible with your network configuration, but this worked very well for me.

Thanks for the input!  I'll check it out.

Do you mean an AP to attach to an interface on an existing Opnsense box?

At face value you are asking to run Opnsense on an ARM A53. How would you propose to do that with proven software?

LOL  Okay, I guess I missed the ARM A53 aspect of that box.

I'm looking for fire up wireless using a box with OpnSense on it.  it'll be separate from my firewall.  I've used OpenWRT in the past, but I've always ended up bricking my unit, probably because I forgot which image I used originally and used a different/wrong image with subsequent updates.  Not sure if you've ever checked their download image lists, but it seems like there are HUNDREDS of different images for a single version of the software.  For this reason alone, I want to try an OpnSense wireless interface, but there's also the interface familiarity.

I've read that MediaTek is most compatible hardware acceleration and wifi 6.

So focusing on MediaTek, I was looking at this interesting little kit.  Any thoughts?

Has anyone heard of or tried this?

It LOOKS like it's a package that allows Kea DHCP to add leases to Unbound.

Sorry, the pic is too large for upload, so I had to use this file format.  It's A+, but the bottom is the impressive part.  There appears to be minimal difference between the three tests.
