Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An Indonesian technical archive covering OpenWrt, Mikrotik, Linux servers, VPNs, router security, and repurposed Android TV boxes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The archive documents a particular low-cost networking culture: repurposing STB B860H and HG680P hardware as servers, NAS boxes, CCTV recorders, DNS filters, and controller hosts. Its guides span Tailscale access through CGNAT, WireGuard on RouterOS 7, OpenWrt-based Mikhmon, and Samba4 file sharing. Four listed browser tools handle subnet calculations, CCTV disk estimates, Mikrotik queue generation, and download-time conversion. The footer also displays “Domain for Sale,” so the archive’s long-term availability is unclear.
