    firmware mod kit does not do the job

    I was not compiling it, I was seeking to replace an already compiled binary with an already compiled binary, then repack the firmware. I have unpacked and repacked it with https://github.com/openwrt-stuff/firmware-mod-kit In case someone wonder why I want to do it, see: /tmp/syslog.log:May 19...

    firmware mod kit does not do the job

    Here is what I want to do: unpack John's fork 25E1, replace dnsmasq with dnsmasq from John fork 24E3. I have RT-AC56U. What I did till now: Used firmware mod kit to extract both builds to different folders. Worked ok. I have replaced dnsmasq. I have rebuilt the firmware. It worked. I have hex...

    Well, now I am looking to see how it works after performing #!/bin/sh sed -i -e 's/\:\:/::1/g' ab-solution.sh sed -i -e 's/0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa/1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa/g' ab-solution.sh And...

    I did not have this problem on my AC56U before build 25B7. I don't have this problem on a RT-N16 with build 25J1. The two routers are configured similarly (not the same, but much alike).

    As I have said, wan-start gets executed after S80pixelserv-tls. So, the number would have to be negative (it does not work that way).

    Yes, I have changed the settings: router IP, pixelserv IP, did not help. What helped was copy/pasting those lines there. I have commented out the ifconfig from wan-start.

    Figured it out: dnsmasq.conf.add wasn't the problem; the problem was that the entware-ng services got executed before /jffs/scripts/wan-start. So, I have disabled pixelserv, then I have enabled pixelserv (this did away with the 0.0.0.0 lines in /etc/dnsmasq.conf). Then I have added this to...

    Why? I have pixelserv running at 192.168.2.3. blocking_file has 192.168.2.3 and :: , no 0.0.0.0. Can't post it, forum says I'm blocked.

    Those lines add address=/0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 ptr-record=0.0.0.0.in-addr.arpa,0.0.0.0 to /etc/dnsmasq.conf

    I think I've fixed it: nano /tmp/mnt/Optware/adblocking/scripts/ab_dnsmasq_postconf.sh and comment out two lines like this: #pc_append address=/0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 $CONFIG #pc_append ptr-record=0.0.0.0.in-addr.arpa,0.0.0.0 $CONFIG

    Hi, I have 25J1 on my AC56U. dnsmasq dies unexpectedly. This did not happen in 24J3. I have 6in4 tunneling.

    Just a thought: don't use flash memory for swapping (swap partition).

    dnscrypt exists in both ARM and MIPS builds. Even the RT-N16 has it, so RT-N66U has it, too.

    Actually V25B7 works perfectly on my RT-N16, but it leads to dnsmasq crashing often on RT-AC56U, which does not happen in V24E3. AC56U has CTF + FA enabled. I have ab-solution installed.

    This worked for me: set Normal instead of Aggressive for DHCP query frequency and fill the Host Name (even if you ISP told you that it does not matter anymore).

    From a security viewpoint, go with the most recent build, always (keep it updated). I know that an RT-N16 handles pretty well a 200 Mbps connection.

    A safe assumption is that none of your devices are safe from NSA, CIA, FBI, etc. If they want to pwn you, it is a safe assumption that they will succeed.

    No, please don't. Dnscrypt is great.
