BT HomeHub converted to run OpenWRT – a router you control and which has a granular firewall

One other nifty feature about a BT HomeHub running OpenWRT is that you can configure a VPN on the router.

So, instead of having to apply VPN software to every device in your home, you apply that to the router only. This delivers:

  • all traffic leaving your home is encrypted and thus not subject to ISP meta-data profiling/monitoring/throttling-based-on-traffic-type
  • traffic is emerging into internet at preferred geolocation as just one of many other user streams and thus anonyimised and less subject to user-profiling
