    DNScrypt Dnscrypt Proxy Installer For Asuswrt-Merlin late 2023 Releases

    Using the 66bu. Upgraded back to dnscrypt installer 2.3.4 and 2.1.11 downloaded and installed; will test and see if the reloading issue persists. No problems: no dnsmasq forever reloading causing 99% cpu issues and the dnscrypt 2.1.11 failing to start problem fixed by installer 2.3.4

    DNScrypt Dnscrypt Proxy Installer For Asuswrt-Merlin late 2023 Releases

    Had to do it manually. I manually copied over all the changes in dnscrypt toml file like I often do upon updates, but it keeps restarting without explanation. It keeps on restarting dnsmasq over and over and over and over again ad-infinitum totally unnecessarily, exacerbating the problem...

    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin Wifi (A Brief Guide)

    Yes. I was able to reduce unnecessary power even more with this method... the distance with which the signal weakens and cuts off is reduced significantly.

    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin Wifi (A Brief Guide)

    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin AC66B1 (Probably the same for the AC68U, AC1900, similar models such as Tenda AC15 & AC18), slight adjustments may be needed for other Asus models, and wifi standards such as Wifi 6/6e/7, and so on. • Regulatory limits: going below legal limits is fine. A brief...

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Yeah... that is probably the issue. i never tried restarting acrylic as is only running as a forwarding proxy. But I could have tried that just to be sure. I use acrylic to prevent ptr and AAAA requests, which cuts the diversion log in half; it also acts to reduce attack surface area by...

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Yeah, it is the last thing I suspected, but the only thing that I could think of after checking acryclic dns and windows hosts. Windows shouldn't require a reboot to reload hosts or flush the dns.

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Solved; I seem to have fixed the issue, I believe a reboot solved the problem. I had set in my windows hosts file: 192.168.50.2 live.thunderbird.net Yesterday, #'ing it did not solve the problem, nor did flushing dns cache. After commenting out that line in the hosts file and flushing dns...

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    It is in my own diversion denylist. How is diversion blocklist intercepting third party DoH in Waterfox G6? Dropped https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jdlingyu/ad-wars/master/sha_ad_hosts

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Everything but one browser I use goes through the router/diversion, one browser uses DoH for quick diagnostics/debugging, typically to determine if something is being blocked by the router. Somehow diversion is intercepting third party DoH DNS requests related to diversion block list. For...
