    Cant get Diversion to block adds

    https://pi-hole.net/pages-to-test-ad-blocking-performance/ you have a choice of how much or little gets blocked. i personally prefer the Small blocking file, even though i still see plenty of ads, few of them are a nuisance or malware. i found the Standard blocking file interfered too much...

    my AC3100 wifi settings - any room for improvement?

    i made changes inline with advice here so far, and will report anything i notice later :p noise is still 92/88, and i have to wait 24hrs and watch when the family uses their wifi :cool: UPDATE: instead of bumping the thread with a new post, i'll just edit this with new info; so after 2 days...

    my AC3100 wifi settings - any room for improvement?

    i checked my system.log/wireless.log and using my current unchanged settings see amazon firetv sticks at 866Mbps would that mean that mimo was working? while our older iphones are at 433Mbps as that client does not support mimo? also some iphones and imacs on 2.4ghz are at 2*72 and 3*72 which...

    my AC3100 wifi settings - any room for improvement?

    my understanding is; you start off with all beam forming disable (as you suggested), but once you see your stuff behaving, try universal beam forming enabled, and if your most roaming clients (typically android and iphones) have no new issues, then leave it enabled. explicit beam forming...

    Best Router for WiFi Gaming

    honestly? serious twitch gamers don't do it over wifi unless they have no neighbors :p wired latency is much more an ISP choice issue, a router can help with wan qos control. i anecdotally have found linksys ddwrt does a better job at control than asus merlin does, but i would not focus on...

    my AC3100 wifi settings - any room for improvement?

    not to get sidetracked here, but YAMon was already intermittent in dd-wrt, in asus-merlin it stops after an hour no matter how much you tweek it or how fast write your usb - i would NOT bother here if you value your sanity, and Al - the developer himself, does not activity support it on asus merlin.

    my AC3100 wifi settings - any room for improvement?

    i'm really happy that i migrated from the linksys dd-wrt world over here to the asus merlin'sphere ;) while i will miss using yamon, at least here i have no new bs/kong instability nightmares any more. so now that everything just works, i was wondering if i still had room for improvement. here...

    USB Flash Drive Size for Diversion and Skynet

    i always get confused with this stuff. so if i use a usb3 stick in the front port of my ac3100 i should set it to usb2 mode so it does not interfere with my 2.4g wifi?

    USB Flash Drive Size for Diversion and Skynet

    a few things... what's important is write speed, shielding (usb3:5g interference) and heat dissipation (runs warm in 24/7), not capacity (even 2gb is enough) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BPHML28/?tag=snbforums-20 32gb $9 btw, some here consider skynet redundant to diversion, and may...

    why can't i disable my firewall or set a port forward?

    thanks, i tried it either way, and still no port forwarding Apply saving, so i'll have to wait till a new merlin addresses it. i don't need this urgently enough to return to stock.

    why can't i disable my firewall or set a port forward?

    oic, yeah, i guess i installed it after all... LOL i knew diversion included entware, i didn't realize pixelserv went along for the ride :p

    why can't i disable my firewall or set a port forward?

    skeal, since i can benefit likewise from your ac3100 sage advice, i am puzzled by one of your in use apps; pixelserv - if you are already running diversion and skynet for adware and firewall, why are you also run pixelserv - isn't that merely another adware variation app?

    why can't i disable my firewall or set a port forward?

    ok, so merely disabling skynet does not allow me to disable the asus firewall, it seems i have to uninstall skynet altogther. that's one mystery solved. so about it not being able to Apply any port forwarding after the firewall is disabled - what thread should i monitor to see if progress is...
