> sqm-autorate is a program for OpenWRT that actively manages the CAKE Smart Queue Management (SQM) bandwidth settings through measurments of traffic load and latency. It is designed for variable bandwidth connections such as DOCIS/cable and LTE/wireless, and is not so useful for connections that have a stable, fixed bandwidth.

OpenWrt 22.03 is currently shipping a version that was released back in August 2022, can i change some "mirror" on the opkg config to get the latest version from the master branch on GitHub or do i really need to build my own image?

https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/16776 says the issue was fixed. However it mentions that it’s using hotplug and if yours isn’t the router in question then a hotplug event won’t be generated.

There's some good pointers here, but I admit it's a bit advanced, as I said Openwrt's implementation is meant to be made more accessible (it'll get better in time) but this is one of those cool gadget programs that has so many knobs and buttons to play with that it is inherently a bit fullon lol

It depends upon what packages you use. Some aren't ready for it, banip being a very notable one.

This sub is not about TOR and all the seediness that goes on there but rather about creating darknets, by which we/they mean mesh networks and encrypted networks using tools like https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns/

One of my favorite projects in IPv6 space is the CJDNS project: LINK TO GITHUB

From a purely networking perspective, there are far better solutions than tailscale.

Have a look at full mesh VPNs like:

https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go

https://github.com/gsliepen/tinc

https://github.com/costela/wesher

These build actual mesh networks where every node is equal and can serve as a router for other nodes to resolve difficult network topologies (where some nodes might not be connected to the internet, but do have connections to other nodes with an internet connection).

Sending data through multiple routers is also possible. They also deal with nodes disappearing and change routes accordingly.

tailscale (and similar solutions like netbird) still use a bunch of "proxy servers" for that. You can set them up on intermediate nodes, but that have to be dealt with manually (and you get two kinds of nodes).

I'm excited about P2P/decentralized/distributed overlay networks. Still catching up so would be grateful for tips on resources.

Pinecone[0][1], newer initiative made by former Yggdrasil[2] maker(s).

CJDNS[3].

AIUI CJDNS relies on intermediary high-uptime discoverable router nodes which is what is motivating Pinecone. POKT[4][5] to CJDNS seems like what Filecoin is to IPFS.

I'm yet to get around to doing the groundwork of grokking more established solutions like B.A.T.M.A.N. and how all these pieces fit together,

CJDNS, a further step towards automatic and cryptographically secure nodes at the protocol level#23077

I know there is the Whitepaper. Maybe I miss the part, but I am looking how the path/next Hop is generated.

yggdrasil is a cjdns clone with different routing

cjdns has a whitepaper

I was really excited for a moment, because I thought this was cjdns https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns.
