Introduction​

This guide shows how to setup a new E2 instance in Google Cloud, allow VPN access in firewall and install Virtual SPR. The result is a private VPN with a custom DNS server able to block ads, log traffic, and more features included in SPR.

For a more general and in-depth guide see the Virtual SPR Guide.

Open WireGuard & scan the QR Code/import config - Done!

Building a Home WiFi Network​

Putting together a home network has several subtly annoying security tradeoffs.

Users want

• Ease of Use & Connectivity

  Maximized by keeping devices maximally connected with a simple passphrase

• Privacy and Security

  Maximized by keeping devices minimally connected. And ideally offline 🦦

If the goal is a bit of both, how to do segmentation correctly quickly becomes a bit of a puzzle

SPR's WPA3 Multiple Passwords per SSID Surprises People​

WiFi nerds and people working on WiFi products have shared their surprise with me a few times now about the integration for multi-PSK with WPA3. This is something already mostly built into HostAP so it should be possible anywhere, although it is not obvious from the documentation. I'm told that most other projects simply don't do it, putting SPR at the head of the pack! In this post I'll share how it's integrated, so that others can benefit from the ideas and improve WiFi security for people all around the world.

Intro​

In this post we'll cover how to configure hostapd with the mt7915 to run 160 MHz channels over 5ghz. This allows stations to break gigabit speeds for WiFi with only 2 spatial streams.

Intro​

In the blog post we'll describe how to build and run SPR on a Mini-PC. And we'll use a WiFi 6 capable radio inside.

User Friendliness​

The SPR project started out as a series of bash scripts and configuration files. Adding new devices was a little bit error prone, as everything was done on the command line. Each device would require a new, strong password, and each device needed to be added to a zone's configuration. Next, hostapd had to be restarted to get WPA3 password reloading to work. It was hard to debug and not apparent if things failed.

What would make SPR super useful, though, would be if it was easy to use. And a user interface can do that for us.

So this week, Supernetworks pushed out a frontend for testing.

Hello, SPR​

I'm happy to start releasing the Secure Programmable Router project to the world. I've been running my home WiFi with it for the past few months and I'm beyond excited to give back to the open source community. I started working on this project because I think that Linux provides a tremendous amount of agility and power for secure home networking but I felt like there was no router project out there that pulled it all together.
