    chromecast not connecting

    Hi, Although I have an AC88 (close to the same...), I have CC (ChromeCast) Ultra nowdays, had the previous one just before. I had similar issues you describe when I did not allow internet access for ChromeCast. And by the way, on the Firewall - Network Services Filter TAB/option, I only have...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Hmmm.... I had to disable SkyNet - It was a bit like a open hole to my system from time to time. Hard to say why, but what I can say is that TOR blocking did not work, nor country blocking. It got to a point where I decided to reboot every night just to make damn sure I had a fresh everything...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Since I am the one suggesting "https://www.dan.me.uk/torlist/?exit" - I have no problem with it, however I do not update that list that frequent - I see no use for every hour. So anyone with that tight update schema, could you explain why I would need to update that list that often? Never mind...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    I have to say I misread that part - I put in the domain instead of the sub command domain - my mistake. Anyway I got around it by figuring out which IP it was, and did it on the IP address instead. However I am great full for your explanation!! Okay, sorry for asking this, but WHO is sending...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Strange.... When I installed Skynet, it also seems to block pictures from facebook (not that big a deal for me) and more importent from www.swedroid.se - the last one I thought I do an "skynet deport www.swedroid.se" - just to get a error 404 in return and deport stopped. Am I doing something...

    Request for a menu API in RMerlin firmware?

    And there are ways around that for security reason of course. I can not think I am the only one who thinks of this kind of solution. Maybe I have to do it myself to verify my idea - however I am not that good on HTML, ASP and JS - well I might give it a go just for the fun of it, to check if I...

    Request for a menu API in RMerlin firmware?

    I think I need to modify my approach a bit. I had a bit of thinking, and well sorry english is not my first language, and I might have chosed the wrong words and that might have give you all the wrong idea for what I am after. Anyway I'll give this another go, and then let's see the reaction...

    Request for a menu API in RMerlin firmware?

    Sorry to ask this then: How did you manage to extend the WEB GUI for your own extension?

    Request for a menu API in RMerlin firmware?

    I guess this question or request has been up before, so if it has then I am fine with it. However what I suggest is a very simple hook into RMerlin software that does only one thing and one thing only: Let a user add a custom entry to RMerlin firmware, and that custom entry can only be in one...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    A few questions that I somehow have not been able to find: 1) Does Skynet provide TOR node blocking? If so - how? 2) Any chance to include DNSCrypt into this? Maybe borderline firewall - however a more secure way of name resolution? 3) Will there be any integration to the WEB gui, like the NTP...

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    In my latest report I have ALOT (+100.000 requests) to: dns.msftncsi.com This seems to be something wild though, I have NO client that lists this website as top requested domains, still I have it on the top total requested list...? I did find this though...

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Thanks - however I now have more questions: the d for default is not an option in 3.8.1 (in my AC88 router) - I can only choose 1=Yes or e=Exit. And "only when logging is enabled" (which I guess it is since I get the email for stats from AB-solution). Anyway, "dnsmasq settings is inactive at the...

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    I did a search on what I am about to ask, however I either can not search correct, or I don't know why or what I am looking for... I am trying to learn from time to time, even though I just upgraded to "version 5.0" (that is I just turned 50 years old, or young). I get this status email, and a...
