    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.6 beta is now available for select models

    I suggest that you should look at the whole of Asus Merlin and not at VPN Director in isolation? If you need fine control over the workings of your router and the ability to have add-ons and write your own scripts, etc... then Merlin is the firmware to go for. Merlin included the VPN director...

    AdGuardHome AdGuardHome Memory Usage Analysis

    I think @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow is probably correct that it is the downloading of updates and applying the updates that is not releasing memory. Lets see if the AGH devs on GitHub get this fixed…

    Thanks for the quick answer. Openwrt can be run as a docker image or in Virtual Box - any specific (technical) reasons as to why Asuswrt-Merlin firmware cannot be run.

    Running Asuswrt-Merlin firmware in a VM, Docker, Virtualisation

    Is it possible to run Asuswrt-Merlin firmware (for AX88u) in a Virtual Machine on a Mac/PC? Say using VMWare or Parallels on a Mac? Or maybe as a Docker image? I am trying to test various scripts in /jffs and it is quite cumbersome having to factory reset the router (whenever I break something...

    AdGuardHome [RELEASE] Asuswrt-Merlin-AdGuardHome-Installer (AMAGHI)

    I am going to rebuild the router in a couple of days ( as I have just got a new AX56U to act as a Mesh to my existing main router AX88U). Will do a clean install with the latest installer script an report back in a few days. By memory, I meant the available free router memory decreasing each...

    @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow What are the settings you use for cache memory, query logs, etc? querylog_size_memory: cache_size: (I presume that these would impact the memory footprint of AGH) I have noticed that my memory usage jumps by almost 100MB a day. Starting at about 650MB from a clean...

    AdGuardHome [RELEASE] Asuswrt-Merlin-AdGuardHome-Installer (AMAGHI)

    Agreed, a memory penalty is better rather than slower processing - especially, as the router is only using 60% memory as of now.

    AdGuardHome [RELEASE] Asuswrt-Merlin-AdGuardHome-Installer (AMAGHI)

    Thanks. My main request was to be able to see what changes had been made on the router. You are correct that the terminal session does display the changes, and even if all those messages were sent/ appended to a log file, it should serve a basic purpose. Thanks for looking into this a future...

    dns.msftncsi.com flooding my NextDNS

    This is the only solution that has worked for me.... Other suggestions reduced the queries from the logs but did not totally stop them - but this just gets rid of them completely (as expected @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow )

    Apparently the way to deal w/ this isssue now is to go to Administration > System > Network Monitoring > DNS Query, and set "Resolve Hostname" as "localhost" and "Resolved IP Addresses" as "127.0.0.1". Even after doing this change, I am still getting these queries ... Prior to change...
