I got a pretty great openwrt router, I want to set it up as privacy respecting as possible.

I am aiming to set it up offline as much as posssible before giving it network access.

I have always used ISP provided units so this is new. It comes with adguard and such but I am thinking about a fresh install to be safe?

Hey, I think your cat walked across your keyboard.

DNSSEC

I think that dnssec link is broke.

Also vlans for devices that aren’t trusted. Mac filtering is for sorting and automatically appropriately provisioning the good boy things you want on the network, a derek zoolander vlan for untrustworthy devices that need their requests selectively dropped is for everything you hate.
