Hello there, my name is Chris and welcome to my technical blog. I am currently employed in the IT field, and love getting my hands dirty with hardware or new technologies. In my spare time, I enjoy developing for miscellaneous projects, exploiting embedded devices, or going for a long motorcycle ride to the local range. I live and breathe technology, so don’t expect to see me detach anytime soon.
If you have any comments or questions or recommendations, feel free to contact me vi email at chris (at) servernetworktech.com, and fee free to add me on LinkedIn! www.linkedin.com/in/riptidewave/
Hi Chris I am currently testing with Proxmox,
I have a project in mind on a cluster of firewall, but I have
problem, the problem is how I can communicate with three isp’s point to point links.
I have been looking for information on the web but have seen on this topic
very few examples.
This complicates the use point to point / 30 between the gateway provider and my vm or ct
by the union with vmbrX, I think I could do this using snat and dnat,
reading about dnat snat and I found your blog, congratulations well explained
and is serving me see if I can do this project.
I currently have this physical schema, I think that this scheme
can be virtualized on Proxmox with HA
isp1 isp2 isp3

I would appreciate if you have time could you help me with any comments, if you believe that this scheme could create

Hello Gustavo,
I would be glad to try and help you out, but from the formatting of the text in your post its kind of hard for me to understand what you are trying to do within Proxmox. Could you try to create an image showing the network/system layout you are trying to achieve?
Hello Chris,
Any chance you’re able to support the Aerohive AP130? I saw your work on the 121, and would love to try it on the 130.
Thanks!
Matt,
I can only support devices that are donated to me, and that I have time to work on in my free time.

Hello,
Please try installing the snapshot build and not the “stable” release, this should fix the issue.
Please help us with the new T9 Firmware update!
Need help for some reason I can not factory reset my T9 I get into the main screen I put in the password and it stays there nothing happen. So I press the reset to see if that will work and nothing. I can go to the other URL so I click Factory reset and it ask me for the SPC and looked all over did not find it on the internet or the T9
Hey man noticed your name on a few meraki unlocks
Are you interested in helping me try to unlock a mx105
Your work with the mx100 is what made me think this might be do able
The mx105 is a xeon based system but no SATA device to remove.
Hi Chris, great blog. Thanks for all the information you leave posted for other’s to find one day when they need it. You’ve provided so much useful information and probably saved countless hours that could have been wasted had the reader not learned from your research.
You have a fan here =]
I particularly enjoyed and found useful the breakdown of the franklin T9. So much so, that when I saw 350 of them being auctioned off on ebay at a killer price, I couldn’t help but buy them. My plan was to either use them for my 4g mobile proxy farm, or if that didnt work, use them for my sms otp activation business. I’m a provider for smshub.org and upgrading from my 2g 64 port “sms device” (quectel m26) to 4g has long been on my list, so i figured this would be a way to make that happen without spending 5-10grand.
Anyway, turns out they’re all T10’s not T9’s…… o_O
I’ll gladly pay for you for your time. Let me start with that.
second, I just need to get it into QMI or MBIM mode, anything that will expose a com port and allow me to send AT commands to the modem.
currently they are all stuck in RNDIS mode and I cant seem to change this.
I’m totally okay with bricking a few hotspots in the process of figuring this out, and of course I can send you a handful of hotspots for your tinkering enjoyment =]
in fact, i can send you 20 hotspots if that will help you do some more testing (so you can help me out with more answers!)
Unlocking it would be great, I’d love to try flashing the T9 firmware onto a T10 like you mentioned previously. But just getting access to a com port by switching to QMI or MBIM or something would be enough so atleast i can use them for my business.
(also, if you need mobile proxies, I can hook you up with some for free, forever! )
Thanks!
