    Peculiar LAN name resolution issue

    Well how does one go about making local LAN name resolution work? It doesn't work from any LAN device (Windows, Mac, Android). I didn't used to have any problem.

    Peculiar LAN name resolution issue

    That first I thought you had it. The client has been up for 544 days, but the router has only been up for 216 days. However, this problem isn't unique to this client. All clients on my LAN have the same issue. The only strange thing about the "bar" client is that reverse DNS works, where it does...

    Peculiar LAN name resolution issue

    I haven't done anything except this line in /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add: dhcp-host=DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE,bar,192.168.1.43,12h It is also named in NVRAM: custom_clientlist=<bar>DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE>0>0>>

    Peculiar LAN name resolution issue

    Need I say more? C:\>nslookup 192.168.1.43 Server: RT-AX86U-AA38.foo.lan Address: 192.168.1.1 Name: bar Address: 192.168.1.43 C:\>nslookup bar Server: RT-AX86U-AA38.foo.lan Address: 192.168.1.1 *** RT-AX86U-AA38.foo.lan can't find bar: Non-existent domain

    Asus RT-AC88u OpenVPN Client problem

    There's not much you can do about it on that router. It's underpowered for what you want to do.

    Future predictions - which AX router will be supported longest?

    As long as 2.4 GHz works at longer distances than 5 or 6 GHz it's going to be the most used band in my household. Every device that needs range over speed is on 2.4 (phones, tablets, cameras, etc.). The only use I have for 5 or 6 GHz is to reduce crowding on 2.4 GHz for devices that are...

    Future predictions - which AX router will be supported longest?

    Perhaps for throughput and latency. I can't comment on that. I can comment on the difference in 2.4 GHz range between the RT-AC88U (and presumably its twin the RT-AX88U) and the RT-AX86U. The former was able to deliver usable 2.4 GHz about 50 - 75 feet further than the RT-AX86U is able.

    How do I make my Chromecast and other LAN devices see each other when my router's VPN client is activated to a VPN service provider?

    Maybe I'm missing something, but doesn't the VPN only route traffic destined for somewhere outside of the LAN?

    DNS blocked no matter the server?

    Figured it out. It was a layered issue involving DNS filtering.

    DNS blocked no matter the server?

    From the router: admin@RT-AX86U-AE24:/tmp/home/root# nslookup sce.com Server: 208.67.220.220 Address 1: 208.67.220.220 dns.opendns.com Name: sce.com Address 1: 45.60.136.211 Address 2: 45.60.77.211 From a LAN client: > sce.com Server: resolver2.opendns.com Address: 208.67.220.220...

    DNS blocked no matter the server?

    What's even more strange is that if I try to ping sce.com from the router UI it has no problem resolving. PING sce.com (45.60.136.211): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 45.60.136.211: seq=0 ttl=57 time=76.306 ms 64 bytes from 45.60.136.211: seq=1 ttl=57 time=76.223 ms 64 bytes from 45.60.136.211...

    DNS blocked no matter the server?

    I have this weird issue where I cannot resolve sce.com no matter what servers I use. > sce.com Server: dns9.quad9.net Address: 9.9.9.9 DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds. DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds. *** Request to dns9.quad9.net timed-out > sce.com...

    router.asus.com not working on Firefox anymore?

    There is one good damned reason: because I trust the certificate and want my browser to respect my wishes. Mozilla has been getting full of hubris like this as of late, telling users what's good for them rather than letting users decide how they want to use things. That's how they squandered...

    Skynet Ban outgoing only from specific subnet?

    I think I might experiment with blocking all outgoing TCP connections first. I can't think of any reason I want an IOT device initiating a connection with anything.

    Skynet Ban outgoing only from specific subnet?

    OK. Seems simple enough. My only worry is that creating the group involves about 13,000 networks. Is this something the router can handle efficiently? How does Skynet do it?

    Skynet Ban outgoing only from specific subnet?

    I'm afraid that's beyond my level of expertise with iptables.

    Skynet Ban outgoing only from specific subnet?

    My mission is to block the entire IP space of China for my IOT guest network, which has it's own IP subnet (I may experiment with blocking all SYN packets regardless of destination - not sure how to handle UDP data yet). I can do it with 7,000 lines of iptables commands, but seeing as how Skynet...

    Traffic Analyzer sees the future?

    That's it. For some reason LibreWolf returns '0' from getTimezoneOffset().

    IPSec VPN on AsusWRT-Merlin

    I'm trying to resign myself to OpenVPN clients, but none of them can be triggered upon connection to certain WiFi access points. Is there a client that integrates with Android so the VPN can be started automatically when you connect to certain access points? It trips me out that Android has...

    IPSec VPN on AsusWRT-Merlin

    I guess the bright side is that once iPhones drop support Asus can just remove all the IPSEC code from the firmware.
