[01:31] <mnathani> How would I get a chromecast connected using wifi to go over a VPN connection provided by pFsense?
[01:31] <mnathani> I need to be able to toggle the wifi connection to go on and off VPN on demand
[01:31] <mnathani> Wireless Access point is Aironet Cisco
[01:31] <mnathani> Wired Router is Mikrotik

[06:30] <m0unds> um, vlan w/gateway being the local vpn endpoint maybe? i dunno
[07:50] <brycec> Yep. Chromecast has no advanced connection stuff like VPN. Your only option is to put it behind a router that will route the traffic as you desire, such as setting up a separate AP/VLAN and the router putting all that traffic over a VPN connection. And you could always script the "toggle"
[07:53] <brycec> However, IIRC only the Netflix app (assuming that's what we're talking about) cares about your region/geoip. The streaming data itself doesn't care, and the app simply instructs the Chromecast "hey, fetch and play this stream". So just setup the VPN connection on your phone and go.
[07:56] <brycec> Pandora works this way - the UI stuff has to come from a valid geoip, but you can stream from wherever. Learned this while playing with http://6xq.net/projects/pianobar/
[08:01] <m0unds> haha, that's a neat project
[08:03] <m0unds> oh, nice. new jakob track.

[08:10] <plett_> I've been meaning to implement something similar to https://github.com/retropc/dvroute to get US Netflix to my Chromecast. At the moment I have a second wifi SSID on a vlan which is IPsec tunnelled to my arp VPS, but that's annoying as I need both the chromecast and the controlling device to be on this second SSID, which means it can't see the rest of my lan
[08:12] *** plett_ is now known as plett
[08:16] <brycec> Well it's easy to route traffic between VLANs, but that doesn't make the autodetection (UPNP broadcasts) work right :p
[08:17] <m0unds> i really need to stop being a lazy bastard and run some cat6 between the floors in my house, so i can stop using this powerline networking stuff
[08:18] <plett> brycec: It's also more so that I can keep UK specific content like BBC iPlayer working while also having US Netflix
[08:19] <m0unds> to do the inverse of that (get my wife access to iplayer from the US) i set up an acct w/witopia so she can connect to one of their london POPs

[11:52] <m0unds> the big diversion channel that runs N/S, discharging into the rio grande hit almost 5000 cubic feet/sec last night due to rainfall
[11:52] <m0unds> pretty wacky considering the 75th pct flow rate for the river is only 950, haha
[11:56] <m0unds> i guess the peak value for the last year is over 7000cfs in that channel

[23:07] <erratic> up_the_irons: are you guys gonna expand to eu at some point?
[23:43] *** erratic has quit IRC (Quit: leaving)
[23:49] <brycec> It's been discussed in the past, but up_the_irons' first goal is a us-east expansion.
[23:51] <brycec> up_the_irons is very, very hands-on and a us-east is pushing the limits of ability to be hands-on (gotta ship equipment, or source locally while staying in a local hotel, etc just for the setup). All in all, it's taxing. And to juggle those logistics out-of-country is a huuuuge undertaking.
