I disabled IPv6 as my little ISP has not yet figured out how they want to bill for or assign/segment it out for static assignment. I have multiple static IPv4 addresses. I only use static IP's but that is a requirement specific to me. The firewall is very simple and just forwards packets and uses a simple IPv4 SNAT. The only time I've had it set up more complicated was when a guest was abusing P2P so I had to block it using string matches on the unencrypted commands.

My setup is honestly simple enough that a write-up would not benefit many. My Unbound setup to block many malicious sites is also fairly well documented by others. The null routing of commonly used DoH servers is straight forward. My Chrony setup would just annoy people as I only use stratum-1 servers and the options would just look like cargo-culting to some.

About the only thing not commonly discussed is the combination of thc_cake and some sysctl options to keep buffer bloat low but OpenWRT has their own take on that topic already.
