Pretty fast on wifi and features but here you have my wishlist for 4.1.XX release of the firmware.
From previous devices
- Tor
- captive portal
new
- config to save logs in the memory card
- third party ddns

They will be released in version 4.1.
Log related feature will be optimized in version 4.2 or 4.3.
Can you specify which one you need?
Ddns like clouds, Dynu, freedns
Just adding onto the wishlistđ
Could Quad9 be added to the DNS over TLS server list?
I know you can add it manually by editing the stubby config, but thatâs just not as user friendly & if you change the DNS, itâll reset. Would be easier if it was just an option selectable in the dropdown menu

I want to pick up on this: config save to the memory card
Iâve had a similar request before: Add (config)profiles in the app. At this time I havenât thought about the SD card âŚ
For example: Put a file âdefault.confâ at the root of the SD card. If the router is reset, the will boot and the first it will check âif there is a config in die root of the SD card?â and load it.
The config could contain something like âmultiple wlan ssid/keyâ, âchanges in /etc/default/â, âpath to VPN config file (also on root of SD card)â, âŚ
The last one is tricky, because with configured SMB access the user get access to the configs âŚ
We will check it.
Weâll discuss about that, but itâs not coming anytime soon.
In addition to the priority you mentioned, the difficulty with this type of requirement is that we need to deal with storage device ejection and insertion.
I think this is a very complex feature.

Not a problem. I think I will use GL-iNet routers a little longer 
Maybe you can try to use quad9 DNS over HTTPS? In 4.0, DoH has been improved even more.
I did think about that, however a board member of Quad 9 called it âan ugly hackâ
He also recommends to use DNS over TLS a bit further down in this comment section.
If you read that comment in full, it is just about its not-yet-standard status as well as the fact that it is âcamouflagingâ name resolution queries within regular HTTP traffic. Technically, it is not that much of a hack. From a security point of view it is equivalent to DoT. From a privacy point of view, it is certainly not worse than DoT either.
you could always enable AGH an leave your filter list blank and set your dns tls://quad9tls.goes.here.com
PLEASE add a selectable option so that VPN doesnât persist after a power cycle (and/or reboot)!
This is a Travel Router, after all, and Iâve been bitten by not having connectivity because Iâd taken the router to another location and forgotten the VPN was still on after a power cycle and canât get past the captive portal. I can live with it being kept on during reboots, but cleared on a power cycle (i.e., a flag in RAM).
In your hypothetical, youâll have to get into the interface to turn the VPN on after a power cycle - so it doesnât seem to me like itâs substantially more effort to get there, turn it off, hit the captive portal and then turn it back on.
It would be nice, though, to have an option where you can hit the captive portal even though the VPN is âonâ - accepting that there may be a little bit of traffic leak between the time you clear the portal and the VPN finally links up. In other words, leave the VPN turned on all the time, but have the router deal gracefully with the captive portal.
Understood, but it can be weeks between uses, and Iâm sitting there in some new hotel wondering why I canât get connected (and many CPs arenât well-behaved in the first place) and Iâm checking wiring, etc. then suddenly see the âVPNâ icon in the top banner. Plus I rarely use the VPN (in fact, the only time I do is 'cause if I use my LTE provider, they like to downgrade Hulu/NF/Amazon/etc. so I use that to get full 1080p), another reason I tend to forget it was on.
Maybe make the âVPNâ icon bigger, or red, or something like that?

In the 4.0 interface there is a yellow âidiot lightâ next to the VPN dashboard when it is enabled but not connected.
I agree that the VPN / captive portal handling could be a lot better. But having to re-enable the VPN every time you power cycled the router would be a huge pain, especially if youâre traveling in Europe where your router basically goes off every time you leave the room due to energy conservation.

I would love a dashboard for client monitoring (bandwidth, most visited sites, etc) with graphâs (charts.js)
I would also love a monthly bandwidth tracker for the network, so I can see what Iâm using each month.
Yeah. I wish the VPN Icon in the top bar were red, too.
I just want the VPN on/off to be tri-state: âOnâ/âOn Until Power Off or Rebootâ/âOffâ ; i.e., a 3rd option to what we have now.
