    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Not sure if the full specs are helpful, however I have had some intermittent issues lately with high internet latency or randomly loosing internet from devices for a few seconds (Android phones would show the '!' by the WiFi signal). In part of troubleshooting, reboot didn't seem to immediately...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Yes, going through the effort here does have diminishing returns at a certain point in time beyond having prettier logs or confidence that no unplanned cert bypass is occurring. Many years ago, I had to implement a Websense gateway for https inspection and there were comparable challenges faced...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    I went through most of the Microsoft apps on my Android device, including LinkedIn and was able to greatly reduce the volume of handshake failed messages to mobile.pipe.aria.microsoft.com by disabling as much log gathering as allowed. I'd say that @kvic is right and Pixelserv log level 2 is a...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    After setting log level to 2, I see similar logs to @punkinduster: Apr 5 20:02:30 pixelserv-tls[28666]: handshake failed: unknown cert. client 192.168.50.249:58082 server mobile.pipe.aria.microsoft.com Apr 5 20:12:16 pixelserv-tls[28666]: handshake failed: unknown cert. client...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Actually, I was hoping that you were right as it would have been a good indicator that the CA cert published to devices/browsers is working as intended and also help identify if devices have been missed. Having recently formatted JFFS and set things up again, which required a re-import of the...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    I believe slh will increment even without the CA installed to the device through the cert being generated for the site requested and client device using it for consecutive requests. This is my believe at least as I only recently started putting the CA cert on devices, but have had slh increment...

    Where are you seeing the devices with certificate installed in the Pixelserv-tls servstats page?

    Thanks for clarifying. OpenSSL test libraries updates and (with less than 5 minutes of run-time) at 1.1% mem.

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Loaded Pixelserv 2.1.0-rc4 on ARMv8 and functioning fine; is is also necessary to load the OpenSSL test libraries or is that already included in the rc4 update?

    [Beta 380/Legacy] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.70 Beta is available

    Thus far, so good. Running in AP mode on an AC66. I didn't see a fix for NTP updates failing, so is it safe to assume that it will not be fixed before release of the final version of 380.70?

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    Was having some strange issues on 384.4_2, so loaded 384.5, including a wipe of JFFS due to DNSCrypt no longer loading, and all is functioning well. I'm aware that high memory utilization is fine, but wonder at what point it is considered too much? With AB-Solution (incl. pixelserv & dnsmasq)...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    In my case, I hadn't been compromised, just had the WAN access enabled unexpectedly. Since I have been using the mobile app for ages without having it enabled, it didn't trigger the IT rule of what changed in my mind. In fairness, an app update is indeed a change and turns out to be the likely...

    Possibly been hacked. Need assistant from senior users.

    I just read through this thread after finding that Web access from WAN had become enabled on my AC86U running 384.4.2 after knowing it was disabled previously. I posted about this in the PixelServ thread here. After testing, it is indeed the ASUS mobile app that is enabling WAN access and...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Yes, to my perspective, this is a significant potential security risk that ASUS does not advertise adequately in the application notes. In a sick humor way, they do specify that, "AP mode and Remote Connection (DDNS) is supported now!!!" with the "!!!" seriously part of their update. There is...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    I just deleted the access in the mobile app and found that after re-adding, low and behold, the access from WAN is re-enabled. Quickest App removal in history. I could swear that an earlier version of the mobile app did not have this nasty side-effect. Thanks for the quick response and for...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    I'm not sure if this has been posted elsewhere on the forums, but I didn't see it myself and felt it worthwhile enough to ask here and see if anyone else is willing to test and confirm. I was going through my AC86U configs for various filters (OpenVPN client w/ PIA, DNSCrypt, AB-Solution...

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Well, it did the trick, but oh does it hurt to see completely useless non-relevant advertising. In the name of supporting Tim and this site, I will bear the brunt of living with it ;).

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Besides the slower load time, I also wonder if pulling additional site bandwidth from the nested SNBForums in the top and sidebar is negating the ad revenue that would come in otherwise.

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    This worked for me and shows ads in the page now. I went the manual whitelist route without issue as comments are very helpful. I also had to temporary ad exceptions for the ad domains with NoScript while browsing this page as it doesn't appear to allow whitelist of all pages, including ad...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    What is the recommended method for moving from x86 to x64? Is it necessary to uninstall Pixelserv-tls first and Entware or can you run an install of Entware x64 on top of the x86 to switch followed by a switch of PS version?
