Deploy WPA3 Wi-Fi on OpenWrt 18.06

This will take a lot steps. Better to use 19.07 or snapshots.

https://gist.github.com/est31/d92d17acbb4ea152296f9b38764cd791

Deploy WPA3 Wi-Fi on OpenWrt 19.07 or snapshots

Uninstall wpad-mini that came from previous stable release or wpad-basic that came from snapshots.

opkg remove wpad-mini wpad-basic

Install the 'full' version of wpad/hostapd.

opkg install wpad-openssl

Edit option encryption 'psk2' or edit it on LuCI. Available WPA modes are here.

option encryption 'sae-mixed'

Restart network

/etc/init.d/network restart

Enable WPA2-Enterprise

As of Oct 20, 2019. OpenWrt does not support WPA3-EAP.
You will use WAP2-EAP instead.
You will need iOS 13 or later. As far as I know iOS 12.4 will only work with WPA-EAP NOT WPA2-EAP.

Install freeradius3 on OpenWrt if you don't have a RADIUS server

Recently I ran out of 80MB flash storage of my R7800.
So I tried ImageBuilder

Here's what I have done

Preparation

Download imagebuilder-19.07.3 for R7800.

aria2c -c -x4 -s4 https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.3/targets/ipq806x/generic/openwrt-imagebuilder-19.07.3-ipq806x-generic.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz

Extract & remove used file & cd to the directory

tar -xvf openwrt-imagebuilder-19.07.3-ipq806x-generic.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
rm openwrt-imagebuilder-19.07.3-ipq806x-generic.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
cd openwrt-imagebuilder-19.07.3-ipq806x-generic.Linux-x86_64/

The command will make your own R7800 image (RUN THE FINAL BUILD COMMAND)

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800

Configuration

Use https when making image

sed -i 's/http:/https:/g' repositories.conf

You will need some additional packages to make opkg over https work

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800 \
PACKAGES="ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl"

I will do some recommendations from Saving firmware space to reduce firmware size

Excluding packages

I live in Japan and my ISP came with IPv6-plus I don't need PPPoE.

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800 \
PACKAGES="ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl -ppp -ppp-mod-pppoe"

Sometimes using LuCI is easier to maintenance your router so I'm definitely going to have it

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800 \
PACKAGES="ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl -ppp -ppp-mod-pppoe \
uhttpd uhttpd-mod-ubus libiwinfo-lua luci-base luci-app-firewall luci-mod-admin-full luci-theme-bootstrap"

Making all kernel modules built-in

Oh I use a lot of kernel modules. Instead of turning them on one by one. Why not just enable all?

sed -i -e "s/=m/=y/g" build_dir/target-arm_cortex-a15+neon-vfpv4_musl_eabi/linux-ipq806x_generic/linux-4.14.180/.config

Modifying build configuration variables

I'm not quite sure about that... Just pass.

Replace LuCI icons with a blank pixel

Looks like I have to clone the sources so that I can replace the images. That will make a lot of time to compile... Just pass.

Adding more packages

Since we enabled all kernel modules so when don't need to install kmod anymore.

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800 \
PACKAGES="ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl -ppp -ppp-mod-pppoe \
uhttpd uhttpd-mod-ubus libiwinfo-lua luci-base luci-app-firewall luci-mod-admin-full luci-theme-bootstrap \
-wpad-mini -wpad-basic wpad-openssl usbutils block-mount e2fsprogs samba4-server luci-app-samba4 \
aria2 luci-app-aria2 ariang stubby curl wget tcpdump kmod-fs-ext4 kmod-usb-storage kmod-usb-storage-uas"

Build

Run the final build configuration

make image PROFILE=netgear_r7800 \
PACKAGES="ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl -ppp -ppp-mod-pppoe \
uhttpd uhttpd-mod-ubus libiwinfo-lua luci-base luci-app-firewall luci-mod-admin-full luci-theme-bootstrap \
-wpad-mini -wpad-basic wpad-openssl usbutils block-mount e2fsprogs samba4-server luci-app-samba4 \
aria2 luci-app-aria2 ariang stubby curl wget tcpdump kmod-fs-ext4 kmod-usb-storage kmod-usb-storage-uas"

Your own image is located in $PWD/bin/targets/ipq806x/generic

Using Time Machine feature in samba4 is unstable. So I changed to AFP.
AFP Netatalk share configuration (aka Apple Time Machine)

Running both AFP and SAMBA on the same router is no problem.
Your macOS only show AFP disk. If you want access SAMBA you may need enter the address smb:// in your browser manually.

You can use both over VPN.
Don't use HOSTNAME.local you can't find the address over VPN.
You may need enter address smb://HOSTNAME.lan or afp://HOSTNAME.lan.

Multi WAN

Setup VLAN

Add a new VLAN 3. Assign LAN 1 port to VLAN 3. (On R7800 the port no. is 4)
If you don't what no. is on your router, go to this page:
[OpenWrt Router]/cgi-bin/luci/admin/network/switch

VLAN-R7800-HG

After adding a new VLAN. /etc/config/network will look like this:

config switch_vlan
	option device 'switch0'
	option vlan '1'
	option ports '1 2 3 6t'
	option vid '1'

config switch_vlan
	option device 'switch0'
	option vlan '2'
	option vid '2'
	option ports '0t 5'

config switch_vlan
	option device 'switch0'
	option vlan '3'
	option vid '3'
	option ports '0t 4'

Setup load balancing

Install mwan3

opkg install mwan3 luci-app-mwan3

Edit /etc/config/network

config interface 'wan'
	option ifname 'eth0.2'
	option proto 'dhcp'

config interface 'wan6'
	option ifname 'eth0.2'
	option proto 'dhcpv6'

config interface 'wanb'
	option ifname 'eth0.3'
	option proto 'dhcp'

config interface 'wanb6'
	option ifname 'eth0.3'
	option proto 'dhcpv6'

If you don't know what 'eth0.2' or 'eth0.3' is and don't know what the number means or your router is different from me. Read OpenWrt Switch Documentation.

The final thing is enable MWAN interfaces.
Use LuCI or edit /etc/config/mwan3.

IPv6 tunnel

Object

  • Obtain IPv6 for IPv4 only network

Requirement

  • IPv4

Background

I'm using a free PPPoE access point on NTT East FLET'S HIKARI provided by SoftEther.
I don't have a useable IPv6 connection.
I don't have a public IPv4 address. My internal IPv4 address and DNS is in 100.64.0.0/10.
Looks like I'm connecting with CGN (Carrier Grade NAT).

my-internal-address

Setup

Get a free IPv6 tunnel on HE.net by clicking Create Regular Tunnel.

If you already have one. It will show on the homepage: tunnelbroker.net.

opkg install 6in4
config interface 'henet'
	option proto '6in4'
	option tunlink   'wan'
	option peeraddr '' # Server IPv4 Address
	option ip6addr '' # Copy Client IPv6 Address

Setup WireGuard server

WireGuard server

Last modified: 2021/04/04 14:23 by vgaetera

The document is missing LuCI app, client psk, key and pub. The fixed command here:

  1. Preparation
# Install packages
opkg update
opkg install luci-proto-wireguard

# Configuration parameters
WG_IF="vpn"
WG_PORT="51820"
WG_ADDR="192.168.9.1/24"
WG_ADDR6="fdf1:e8a1:8d3f:9::1/64"
  1. Key management
# Generate keys
umask go=
wg genkey | tee wgserver.key | wg pubkey > wgserver.pub
wg genpsk > wgclient.psk
wg genkey | tee wgclient.key | wg pubkey > wgclient.pub

# Server private key
WG_KEY="$(cat wgserver.key)"

# Pre-shared key
WG_PSK="$(cat wgclient.psk)"

# Client public key
WG_PUB="$(cat wgclient.pub)"

Follow the rest of the document.

Setup WireGuard client

This will allow you access home resources from anywhere in the world.

I don't have public IPv4 address. I have public IPv6 addresses from HE.net. So my Endpoint is IPv6 only.

Replace wgclient.key, wgserver.pub, wgclient.psk, OpenWrt_LAN_Interface_Private_IPv6_Subnet, OpenWrt_Public_IPv6_Address with actual value.
DNS is optional.

[Interface]
PrivateKey = wgclient.key
Address = 192.168.9.2/32, fdf1:e8a1:8d3f:9::2/128
DNS = 192.168.9.1, fdf1:e8a1:8d3f:9::1

[Peer]
PublicKey = wgserver.pub
PresharedKey = wgclient.psk
AllowedIPs = 192.168.0.0/16, fdf1:e8a1:8d3f:9::/64, OpenWrt_LAN_Interface_Private_IPv6_Subnet
Endpoint = [OpenWrt_Public_IPv6_Address]:51820

Restart WireGuard server

/etc/init.d/network restart

Route all connections to VPN

(client side settings only)

You can change AllowedIPs to 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0. It will route all IP connection (OSI layer 3) (except some private addresses like default gateway) to WireGuard VPN.

To show routing table on macOS:

netstat -rn

192.168.1.1 is the default gateway and it goes through en0 which is the default Wi-Fi interface on macOS.

http://192.168.1.1 will be my friend's home router's authentication page.

Route 192.168.1.1 to WireGuard VPN. (utun2 is my WireGuard's interface, run ifconfig to see yours.)

sudo route change 192.168.1.1 -interface utun2

http://192.168.1.1 will be my router so I can maintenance my home network remotely.

And Internet will down.
To reset it turn off/on Wi-Fi and re-enable WireGuard.

PS4 Remote Play

Common Ways To Remote Play While Away Home

  1. The official PS Remote Play app away home play feature
    I'm currently using v6プラス(based on MAP-E) option from my ISP. I have public IPv4/v6 addresses but I have only SOME IPv4 ports available. I failed to connect my PS4.

  2. The official PS Remote Play app in-home play feature with a home VPN server
    This method works on OSI-layer 2 VPN but not on layer 3.
    WireGuard is layer 3. And I have no plan to start a OpenVPN TAP mode (layer 2) VPN.

The solution (the third way to remote play)

Prepare a layer 3 home VPN server.

Use Chiaki instead of official PS Remote Play. (I learned here)

Seems Chiaki don't wake PS4 on LAN. So I installed ps4-waker on my home Raspberry Pi.

Just follow the link and setup it.

The result

  1. Set PS4 to Rest Mode before leave home. (Don't Power Off)
  2. SSH into home Raspberry Pi.
  3. Run ps4-waker command will wake up PS4.
  4. Connect to home VPN (layer 3).
  5. Open Chiaki any enjoy it.

Block Country IPs

Tutorial for how to boycott CN IPv4 on OpenWrt.
Script from here https://github.com/kravietz/blacklist-scripts
CIDR IP list from my project https://country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com

OpenWrt Setup

Install

opkg install ipset curl
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kravietz/blacklist-scripts/master/blacklist.sh
mv blacklist.sh /etc/firewall.user

Create /etc/ip-blacklist.conf

URLS="https://country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com/CN_IPv4.txt"

Edit /etc/firewall.user

I don't have pppoe-wan and the blocklist don't work.
I replaced IN_OPT="-i $wan_iface" with IN_OPT="" and it works now. (kravietz/blacklist-scripts#6)

Activate

# Manual run
sh /etc/firewall.user
# Daily update
echo "01 01 * * * sh /etc/firewall.user" >>/etc/crontabs/root

Check & Test

ipset list -name

Two new sets are added

manual-blacklist
country-ip-blocks.hac

View blocked CN IPv4 entries

ipset list country-ip-blocks.hac

Here's how to use manual-blacklist.

ipset add manual-blacklist 8.8.8.8
ipset list manual-blacklist
ping 8.8.8.8
ipset del manual-blacklist 8.8.8.8
ping 8.8.8.8

Block Multi Lists

Example of /etc/ip-blacklist.conf

# Emerging Threats lists offensive IPs such as botnet command servers
URLS="https://rules.emergingthreats.net/fwrules/emerging-Block-IPs.txt"

# Blocklist.de collects reports from fail2ban probes, listing password brute-forces, scanners and other offenders
URLS="$URLS https://www.blocklist.de/downloads/export-ips_all.txt"

URLS="$URLS https://country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com/CN_IPv4.txt"
URLS="$URLS https://country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com/HK_IPv4.txt"
URLS="$URLS https://country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com/MO_IPv4.txt"

All set will name country-ip-blocks.hac and override.

To fix it. Edit /etc/firewall.user. Insert script between the two lines. L116

# download the blocklist                                                                                            
set_name=$(echo "$url" | awk -F/ '{print substr($3,0,21);}') # set name is derived from source URL hostname         
curl -L -v -s ${COMPRESS_OPT} -k "$url" >"${unsorted_blocklist}" 2>"${headers}"     

Will be

# download the blocklist                                                                                            
set_name=$(echo "$url" | awk -F/ '{print substr($3,0,21);}') # set name is derived from source URL hostname         
# autodetect country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com                                                                      
if echo "${url}" | grep -q 'country-ip-blocks.hackinggate.com'; then                                                
    set_name=$(echo "$url" | awk -F/ '{print substr($4,0,21);}')                                                    
fi                                                                                                                  
curl -L -v -s ${COMPRESS_OPT} -k "$url" >"${unsorted_blocklist}" 2>"${headers}"     

sh /etc/firewall.user and ipset list -name will be

manual-blacklist
rules.emergingthreats
www.blocklist.de
CN_IPv4.txt
HK_IPv4.txt
MO_IPv4.txt

Check if there's entries

ipset list CN_IPv4.txt | wc -l
