path is part of the http protocol. Most firewalls only parse the first couple layers (ethernet->ip->tcp/udp), not http as well, unless they do deep package inspection. Idk if openwrt/banip has functionality

I don’t think openwrt can do this. Im running k3s with nginx as ingress but the issue is it doesn’t see the actual ip but rather the ip of the container so i can’t use nginx to block countries.

That is what i currently have setup but cert-manager is giving me a headache and not working correctly so im looking into http instead since its easier to setup

Oh that is actually a great idea thanks!

Very valid point.

Im actually running k3s on it so im not looking for any NAS specific OS. But if i picked a more general OS like fedora this issue might not have appeared. The reason i picked Alpine is since everything is running in containers i don’t need any fancy OS i just need to install k3s. But apperently Alpline can cause some issues :D

Oh i just did ethtool -I eth0 and now it does show up as being able to do 1G.

As additional troubleshooting step i connected a know working device to the cable and was able to get 1GB

1. Im not 100% certain but I assume yes. Im trying to set it up as a nas. I just did setup-alpine, rebooted it and placed it in my basement. It should have services consistently running on it like sshd, k3s, … which become unavailable/available every few minutes.
2. Except for a keyboard that i used for troubleshooting no usb devices are connected. Should i attach an usb to see if it gets unmounted?
3. I notices this aswell which i quite strange since it is connected using a cat 5.e cable which should be able to do 1G. The cable is connected to a gigabit switch so that also shouldn’t be the problem. Asfar as cabling and switching is concerned everything should be able to do 1G

If you need additional information let me know!

I did the step i mentioned above but this wasn’t able to solve my issue :(

Thanks for your reply! This is a path i wanna look into. Just to confirm that im understanding correct running /sbin/modprobe -i r8169 && sleep 1 && /usr/sbin/ethtool --set-eee eth0 eee off and then rebooting is what i should try right?

Additional information im on Alpine 3.22.3. If this is an Alpine specific issue im able to switch distros but i prefer not to if it isn’t needed.
