Recently I had a few disconnect on my UNIFI and upon looking at my DD-WRT /var/log/messages logs, there are lots and lots of "attacks" and logins attempts on the WAN interfaces...

Anyone else also encounter this issue ??

I'm thinking of using my old pc as a router + download machine. Not sure whether it will work or not.
I'm trying to keep the number of devices to the minimum.

Because the tplink wr1043nd (it's running openwrt) only have 5 ports in total, im thinking of
port 0 aka wan port : connect to btu
port 1 - 2 : connect to pc ( I only have two PCs, the rest are wireless)
port 3 : connect to router
port 4: iptv

For the port 3(router), I'm thinking of using a single NIC and setup two virtual interfaces (vlan 1 and 500) for LAN and WAN respectively.

Here is what I have in mind. Is this workable? been too long since I touched anything regarding to network.

A few pointers..

- Can't u use yr TPlink as the router since it is already running openWRT ?

- Using an old PC as router is a bad idea bcos of the "higher power usage" compared to embedded appliance since you are running it 24/7, and also heat and noise from the fan...

- Get those NAS HDD with support for bittorrent like the DNS-323 or similar ( I'm running transmission-bt on mine )...

- Some of the ASUS/TPLINK routers hv UNIFI stickers and support UNIFI with the existing firmware...
