This week Darren is joined in San Francisco by his wonderful co-host Shannon! I know, right? We're talking about open source software that will save the day if your laptop is ever stolen, following up on your password tips, and finishing up the homebrew router build with Untangle!

Homebrew Router Part 2

You'll remember from episode 718 that we built a homebrew router based on a mini-itx motherboard running an Intel Atom. This week we're replacing Smoothwall with Untangle, a free, full featured open source router.

We also cover the basics of QoS in the context of a home network. Getting in fights with your roommates about bandwidth hogging or online game performance? Take a look at Untangle's easy to manage built in features. Not to mention the app store. Yes, of course it has an app store.

I'm looking for your feedback on these home LAN and IT segments to be sure to hit me up at feedback@hak5.org
