    Unbound Restarting Unbound

    Is this the right thread to ask this question? When I reboot my router, the GUI option in Unbound always fails to be enabled. How can I make that sticky?

    What is best firmware for the R7000?

    You might look at this thread. The procedure worked for me. https://www.snbforums.com/conversations/r7000.14330/#convMessage-67944

    ntpMerlin Display of NTP Requests?

    Update: Looks like the conntrack tool also captures TCP packets for port 123.

    ntpMerlin Display of NTP Requests?

    conntrack seems to work, but so far, all the traffic that it is capturing are UDP. Would I also need to do tcpdump to catch that traffic? Or, is all ntp traffic UDP? Now that I know about conntrack, I'll research how to do more with it. Thanks for getting me started with this.

    ntpMerlin Display of NTP Requests?

    Is it possible to dynamically display the requests for the NTP service, kind of like what Diversion does for its requests? I'd like to see what devices are requesting the time, and how often.

    Log File not being Updated

    Thanks, looks like that was the problem. I should have suspected that after I updated Entware last week. I thought to update unbound at that time but did not check if any other scripts needed to be updated.

    Log File not being Updated

    I just looked at my System Log and found that it has not been updated since 1-8-23. That's strange. So I rebooted but it is still not working. What do I need to do? How can I tell if this is just a display issue or if the log really is not being written? I have Disk Check loaded in amtm and...

    Skynet Is default firewall good enough?

    For the blocking lists, this discussion has been to use Skynet to do the blocking. But what if you added a blocking list to Diversion, say firehol_level1? Is it equally as effective as adding it to Skynet?

    NVRAM Save/Restore Utility - Can it still be used?

    I've run for weeks without a problem. Usually it breaks when I do something stupid, like trying out a new setting or to make a change to something, like Unbound or Skynet or something else. If I just leave it alone, it works great. Some of that may also be due to my h/w config. I'm using an...

    NVRAM Save/Restore Utility - Can it still be used?

    How would I do save/restore settings from cli? I want to run a script. But this is only a stopgap. I want to be able to save and restore across different Merlin versions to get as many settings as possible. Doing save/restore and save jffs only works with the same version.

    NVRAM Save/Restore Utility - Can it still be used?

    I'm in the same boat. So, what other methods would be better?

    Solved VPN Director

    Is there a way to backup and restore the VPN Director rules from a directory somewhere? I reset my configuration and now I'm trying to get back to the config as it was before.

    Upgraded RT-AC66U B1 from 386.5_2 to 386.7_2 - login fails

    I'd guess, reset to factory defaults, possibly reload 7_2 if that is not the version that is displayed after the reset, but then manually update all your settings. Likely the CFG file is the reason you are locked out.

    Asus Merlin basic VPN+device routing concerns

    I do not know if 4 hrs is the magic time. I just know that it works for me. It happens automatically as a cron job so I do not know that it happened. A weekly reboot is a good idea in theory, but another problem you might encounter if you do that is that once in a while, it does not wake up...

    Asus Merlin basic VPN+device routing concerns

    That bug's been there forever. I decided to create a script to reset the GUI every 4 hrs. Since I did that, I've had no lockup problems. Now the only GUI problem I have is that GUI webpages do not always completely display properly, but I've learned to live with that.

    Asus Merlin basic VPN+device routing concerns

    I have a situation like yours, where I have some IoT devices that must have WAN only access, and I have other devices that do not care if they sit behind a VPN. Here's what I did. If you want to do something similar, you should start over and reset the router to factory defaults. 1. I defined...

    Unbound Carve-outs in Unbound

    I want to use it for all the other IPs on my system.

    Unbound Carve-outs in Unbound

    Is it possible to configure Unbound to bypass Unbound to use an encrypted DNS query using 1.1.1.1 (or ?) instead for specific LAN IP addresses? If yes, how would I do that?

    Solved 386.5_2 AX86U - Unable to generate cert for https login?

    I too have used this procedure, but I needed to do it from an admin account in Win10. If I do it from a user acct, then try to access the router, I still can only connect Unsecured. If I click on the Unsecure text in Brave then I get a Certificate Not Valid message. Do I need a different cert...
