Firewalla Box shows connected to Port 2?

Firewalla Box shows connected to Port 2?

I have a Firewalla Gold SE. It has the following ethernet connections:

Port 1 connects to my Access Point
Port 2 connects to my Roku
Port 3 no connection
Port 4 connects to my XFinity Modem

When I go to the Firewalla App and select “Network” and then select the “Roku” network, it shows 2 devices connected to this network. The two devices are my Roku and my Firewalla. So my Firewalla is showing as a device on my Roku ethernet network .. but I think this makes no sense as it is not part of that network

Update: I received this answer from tech support: “This is an expected behavior. Firewalla itself may appears as a device under a LAN. It shouldn't cause you any issues.”

So your Firewalla will show up randomly as part of one of your LANS

I bought this Black Squid Ink Strozzapreti on a whim. But not sure how to use this. Looking for suggestions.

I have been running connecting for some time to Nord servers on my home router using wireguard protocol without problem. Recently, I have run into problems with a site failing to load pages/images and respond correctly. If I turn off the VPN, the site works.

So I tried connecting to different Nord servers. They all fail.

So I disconnected the VPN connection on my router. Then i took my Ipad and connected to a Nord server (again using Nordlinx) with my ipad as the client. Again failure. Again I tried multiple servers. I also switched from using Nord dns to cloudflare … and still failure

Next I changed the protocol to OpenVPN TCP. Now the site loads properly. I also tried OpenVPN UDP protocol. It also works fine. I tried other Nord servers. They all worked.

Next I turned off the VPN client on my ipad and initiated a Nord connection on my router using OpenVPN tcp protocol. Again, the site loads properly.

I switched back to Wireguard protocol on the router and again failure.

So I know that running Nordlynx/Wireguard on either my router or ipad results in pages not loading. Connecting using OpenVPN always works fine…

Any thoughts or ideas? I would prefer to run nordlynx/wireguard protocol, but that seems impossible
