Wow, that is bizarre, I can't think of a reason it would override the TTL of the first two packets but none after that. Normally if it wasn't overriding then at all I would say there is something wrong with the iptables rule, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. With myAR750S-Ext I started by fl...

That's normal, just using a VPN by itself will slow down your connection, since your connection is now limited by the VPN protocol, unfortunately. You can try a Wireguard VPN service (e.g. Mullvad) to see if you get more DL speed, that protocol allows greater bandwidth than OpenVPN.

Awesome, glad it worked for you!

I also posted a more current write-up here, using USB tethering rather than the Nighthawk: link

Absolutely, glad it helped!

Hi everyone, I have recently configured a mobile internet setup using a USB-tethered Visible Wireless cellphone hotspot, a travel router, and TTL mangling to get unlimited, unthrottled internet in my apartment. Having used it for approximately a month now, I wanted to post my solution to get this se...

I completely agree, we're considering some different options right now, particularly T-Mobile's Home 5G plan.

I have a phone USB tethered to an AR750S, and as long as I'm not being deprioritized I pull ~15Mb/s, sometimes even as high as 50mb/s late at night. While deprioritized though it can drop as low as 1-3mb/s. For example, there was about an hour this past Wednesday where max DL was ~300kb/s , but that...

Hey everyone, It's working now! Turns out I hadn't downloaded the opkg that allows TTL mangling, so none of the custom firewall rules were taking effect at all :oops: . This rule ended up being effective: # update packages opkg update # download mod package opkg install iptables-mod-ipopt # Start-IP...

Great suggestions, thank you both. Here are the lines I tried without success (add->Save->Restart Firewall): iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o eth0.2 -j TTL --ttl-set 64 iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o eth0.2 -j TTL --ttl-set 65 iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o eth0.2 -j TTL --ttl-set 66...

Oh wow, that's interesting, I wouldn't have thought to try higher TTL values. I wonder why your setup requires 88? I have tried the following lines so far: iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o br-lan -j TTL --ttl-set 65 iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o br-lan -j TTL --ttl-set 64 iptables -t mang...

Thanks for the response. As for the hashes, when I applied each rule they did not have a hash in front of them, that's just so I can keep them all in the config file for reference. I just tried the rules you posted, the Wi-Fi speedtest still came back throttled unfortunately, though I do appreciate ...

Hello everyone! First time poster, so I hope this is the right place to post this. I have read quite a bit of information from these forums about TTL mangling (including the very helpful guide by @didneywhorl: https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2752 ), and I feel like I'm very close ...
