Worked on stabilizing WireGuard VPN reliability in the DragonBluep/openwrt repository by addressing a bug that caused premature hostname re-resolution during active connections. The solution involved increasing the watchdog idle timeout from 150 to 180 seconds in wireguard-tools, aligning it with the REJECT_AFTER_TIME constant to ensure re-resolution only occurred when connections were truly inactive. This adjustment reduced handshake failures and improved tunnel stability, resulting in a more reliable user experience for remote sites. The work demonstrated skills in Linux networking, system administration, and Shell scripting, and contributed to lowering operational risk and support demands for VPN deployments.

May 1, 2026Month: 2026-05. Focused on stabilizing WireGuard VPN reliability in DragonBluep/openwrt by adjusting the watchdog idle timeout and aligning with core constants. The primary change increased the watchdog idle timeout from 150 seconds to 180 seconds to prevent premature hostname re-resolution on active connections, addressing instability in long-running WireGuard sessions. The change was implemented in wireguard-tools with commit 530d27a11889ed476cf1a291a49a0819bb93efe0 and linked to PR 23248. Outcome: fewer handshake failures, more stable tunnels, and improved user experience for remote sites. Business value: higher VPN reliability reduces support load and operational risk. Technologies/skills demonstrated include OpenWrt development, WireGuard tooling, Linux networking, patch review, and cross-team collaboration.
