Folks,

I'm looking to expand the Onion WiFi/Ethernet bridge project by having the Onion initiate (and keep) a VPN connection to my OpenVPN server. I have remote devices which don't support VPN natively and don't have built-in WiFi. My plan was to plug the RJ45 from the remote device into the Ethernet expansion module and configure the Onion to connect to a Verizon MiFi unit.

This would allow the remote devices to upload data directly into my SQL database and for me to communicate with the remote devices over the VPN without having to deal with the Verizon double-NAT issue.

Does this sound feasible?

Thanks in advance.

I seem to have the same older firmware on my Omega. When I try oupgrade, I get:

Device Firmware Version: 0.0.1
Checking latest version online...
Failed to parse message data
Repo Firmware Version:
Comparing version numbers
sh: 0: unknown operand
sh: 0: unknown operand

Device firmware is up to date!

If I try oupgrade - force I get the following:

Device Firmware Version: 0.0.1
Checking latest version online...
Failed to parse message data
Repo Firmware Version:
New firmware available, need to upgrade device firmware
Downloading new firmware ...
/tmp/: Is a directory
/tmp/: Is a directory
/tmp/: Is a directory

and the /tmp/ just keeps scrolling by.

Any ideas?
Thank You!
