I got a pretty great openwrt router, I want to set it up as privacy respecting as possible.

I am aiming to set it up offline as much as posssible before giving it network access.

I have always used ISP provided units so this is new. It comes with adguard and such but I am thinking about a fresh install to be safe?

A good thing to setup are VLANS. I would at minimum creatie a VLAN for untrested devices like iot stuff.

You can setup a firewall so you can access the insecure devices but they cant access your trusted network them self.

This gives a good base to expand on.
