No one seems to have thought about the fact that most schools have been out for those three months. Not sure exactly how much of the traffic is high schoolers and college students cheating, but that could account for at least some of the loss in traffic.

Edit: missed a word

If you download a wireguard/openVPN conf file from Proton it will let you enable nat-pmp which is basically automatic port forwarding. It seems to work fine on a Linux machine running qbittorrent, but your case might be different.

I bought a fortunate 60e a few months ago to play around with. After setting up some vlans, subnets, and firewall rules I am considering just selling it. Without a license you don’t even get security updates. So at this point opnsense might be my next firewall to learn on. I was just trying to my hands on what is actually being used by companies.

It would be cool to see companies start offering homelab licenses for people to play around with and get experience before buying into a whole ecosystem.

I’m kinda surprised this hasn’t happened sooner.
