Toot

Written by Simon Hewison on 2024-12-15 at 10:40

spent much of the morning debugging why so much stuff on my home network wasn't working. Turns out that somehow a TR069 update from ISP had decided without warning to renumber a LAN subnet from :: to :1: whilst my overall /48 prefix remained the same.

Moral of the story: Disable TR069. There's no need for your ISP to poke around with your router config unless you REALLY trust them. Possibly for first config is could be handy. Make sure it's still disabled on every router update.

@zymurgic >Moral of the story: Disable TR069

You're headed in the right direction. TR069 is but one of many serious issues with those shitboxes.

Do not use an ISP-provided router, period. Get a single-purpose modem or, failing that, put the combo modem/router into bridge mode.

Then use your own router, like #OPNsense or #OpenWRT, behind that.
