#PFSENSE RASPBERRY PI 4 DOWNLOAD UPGRADE#
I’ve read in this thread that the upgrade to another snapshot image is complicated and the settings do not survive.
What’s the difference between the squashfs and ext4 images? I don’t quite understand the difference between a snapshot image and a mainstream image. If it’s possible to use 2.5 Gbps USB interfaces in OpenWRT, can the Raspberry Pi 4b route at speeds higher than 1 Gbps? Has anyone tried this with two USB3 2.5 Gbps adapters, since some newer cable modems now come with 2.5 Gbps Ethernet interfaces?

Does anyone know if there’s a driver for the 8156 chipset to be used as a second Ethernet interface in OpenWRT? I have a 2.5 Gbps USB3 adapter based on the Realtek 8156 chipset, and I couldn’t get it to be installed as an interface under OpenWRT even after I installed the Realtek 8152 driver. What’s the recommended USB3-to-GigabitEthernet adapter? I hear that the one based on the Realtek 8152 chipset is recommended. I may even replace pfSense with it, but I have a few questions and concerns after I’ve read this entire thread. So, running OpenWRT on the Raspberry Pi is an interesting project for me. I don’t have to do anything special, as all the settings survive.

I run the update once a year on pfSense, and the update process takes just a few minutes. I’m a Cisco network engineer, and I’ve run Cisco routers or firewalls for my Internet access for decades, so when I switched to pfSense, I was very pleasantly surprised with its features and stability. Currently I’m using pfSense running on a Fitlet mini PC, and that firewall solution has been rock solid for over 4 years now. I wanted to see what I could do with the Raspberry, so I stumbled upon OpenWRT. However, when I download an ISO file, I do see a speed (879 Mbits 1.5 GHz, 965 Mbits 2.0GHz) and CPU (iperf3: 30%, ISO dl: 100%) difference!!!Īs I'm only interested in fast downloads, and not what a speedtest reports, I switched my WAN interface to the internal (eth0) ethernet port of the Raspberry Pi 4 and overclocked it at 2.0GHz.Ī) iperf3: eth1 (USB) = WAN 1.5GHz -> 924 Megabits While the speedtest website is (sometimes) faster when eth1 (USB dongle) is the WAN interface, iperf3 is (always) faster on eth0 (internal/onboard ethernet) and ISO downloads are also (always) faster when eth0 is the WAN interface.Ī) eth1 (USB) = WAN 1.5GHz = 924 Megabits - CPU0 100%ī) eth1 (USB) = WAN 2.0GHz = 965 Megabits - CPU0 100%Ĭ) eth0 (Int.) = WAN 1.5GHz = 986 Megabits - CPU0 15-30%ĭ) eth0 (Int.) = WAN 2.0GHz = 983 Megabits - CPU0 15-30%īut be carefull, this is all iperf3 only, and the results suggest that there is no need for overclocking. However, for ISO file downloads both are 100% which justifies my (need for) overclocking.
The internal/onboard (eth0) consumes less CPU0 (~15-30%) than my external UGREEN (ASIX887719) USB adapter (~100%) WITH iperf3. Tonight I learned the difference between iperf3, the vodafone speedtest website, and a wget ISO download. It's embarrassing but my previous measurement results are not reproducible (so I edited my last post).
