    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    Well she is definitely not that tech savvy!!! LOL Good information. Thanks!

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    Maybe one more reason to try my first MerlinWRT load on an ASUS device! Up to now I haven't tried it yet. First time for everything!

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    All, I think I am a little spoiled by some of the pfSense capabilities. The ASUS router cannot redirect DNS requests if it is manually assigned locally, but the pfSense router can. If you want it to you make a rule that any DNS requests get rerouted to the internal firewall which reroutes it...

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    Actually I think ASUS can override any DNS server with the one provided by the router. Then I could use OpenDNS home basic which also has some customization. No need for a pfSense router. pfSense is what I use at home and it is great. I saw that but it is incomplete. It will be...

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    P.S. I think the 64 entry limit is more than sufficient.

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    Tech9, Thanks! This could work if it accepts wildcard characters or allows it if it partially matches the string. So that way I can whitelist *.google.com or similar, but I do not expect it does, but the only way to find out is to give it a try. I will do that before I buy an SG-1100 for...

    RT-AC66U B1 - Can MerlinWRT firmware do whitelist only website access to the web?

    All, My mother-in-law is having memory issues and i would like know if the MerlinWRT firmware for the RT-AC66U B1 has a setting(s) that I can use as a whitelist for FQDN sites so she can only access sites I set up? Otherwise I will have set it as an AP and use a separate firewall appliance...

    Email provider for Notifications

    All, After more reading I decided that Postfix is more than I want to take on right now. So for now I turned on 2FA and created an app password. Since the NetGear NAS boxes all look the same to Google I only needed the one app password for all four of the boxes and it is working fine. So for...

    Thanks all, I have decided to try as a project to set up Postfix as a send only service on the Raspberry Pi 4 that I am going to use as a NUT server since although it does encryption it does not require it. I will let you know how it goes. o_O Fizix

    Thanks CaptainSTX! It looks promising for several of my systems, but not the old ReadyNAS boxes. GMX requires TLS 1.2 and above and these boxes only do 1.1. I will have to keep looking I guess.

    I am really liking the idea of using the RasPi to run a send only server. I have a ProtonMail account, but I don't think it supports the email as I need. I will recheck. THANKS.

    Email provider for Notifications

    As you may or may not know, Gmail will discontinue "less secure apps" support at the end of this month. The issue is that I have an email account just as the sender of notification emails for my pfsense router, AP points, NAS boxes, UPSs and a number of other devices that will no longer work...

    Release RT-AX89X firmware 3.0.0.4.386.23012

    Yes, I rebooted, but it did not remove it. Does not affect operation in any way that I can discern.

    Release RT-AX89X firmware 3.0.0.4.386.23012

    The only thing I have noticed so far is this minor repeat on the "Operation Mode"

    RT-AC88U AiMesh Router in AP Mode - Parent AP Status

    All, I am setting up my RT-AC88U as the master AiMesh Router in AP Mode. I have an RT-AC66U B1 on the way (got a good price on it) to add to it. I have the WAN port wired to a VPN router which is then connected to my Charter Modem and everything connects fine and can see my devices on the...

    RT-AC88U firmware 3.0.0.4.380_2345 issue

    I did update once, but not to the very latest version, since it goes past the no-return mark. I am waiting for a little more feedback from others before making the jump. I just did not know if anyone else has seen this. Thanks for the reply

    RT-AC88U firmware 3.0.0.4.380_2345 issue

    I have only had this happen one more time. It seems to be after it has failed over and I access the router pages. It is not consistent though. Anyone?

    RT-AC88U Dual WAN -- Is it still "experimental"?

    I see that the new version is now available (as of last Friday [5-27-2016] or so). However, I am hesitant to make the jump until a few more have tried it, since it crosses the "can't go back" firmware boundary. I will try it after more peeps report in on the stability of the firmware. I did...

    RT-AC88U Dual WAN -- Is it still "experimental"?

    @RMerlin I agree with you Merlin, just wish ASUS would wait until it is more robust before making a claim. I do look forward to seeing if they have made any improvements in DUAL WAN when the next firmware is available. @Pene I will take a look at the script you mentioned. Thanks for...
