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

    That's interesting, something in your setup must be different to mine. Just to double check, you're running v1.0.1? I verified that on my clients (Linux and Android) with v1.0.1. I did not have to add a DNS server entry into either of the two slots, curious what's different for those that...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    I've had problems with my OnePlus 6 recently as well, but _not_ on 386.4. Instead on 386.2_6 and only after I switched channels / frequency and _also_ changed to WPA2/3 personal. Not sure which of the changes did that. FYI.

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

    The only thing that stood out is that the time wasn't set properly by NTP. However, it seemed to be off even after the initial install when things were working. Re: errors, this is the only line I found that indicated an error: AdGuardHome[1280]: 2018/05/05 05:05:33.731086 [error] hosts...

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

    One thing I notice last night, after upgrading to v.1.0.1 I could no longer reach the web interface for adguard. Rebooting the router fixed that, and I'm back in. Not sure if anyone else experienced the same thing, but thought I'd give a head up :)

    Correct Screenshot of my current setup attached (it's not very exciting as everything is default again ;) )

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

    Just updated to v1.0.1 and things work now with no entry in the DHCP - DNS option, just the radio button set to yes, everything works. Thanks! :)

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

    After I removed the DHCP - DNS entry, switched networks, and on re-joining the problem was back. So definitely, the DHCP - DNS option must be filled in, the radial button is no longer enough. Let me know if there's something else you'd like me to test. Happy to help.

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

    Of course, assuming you mean this: Firmware Version:386.4 BEFORE removal of DHCP - DNS option: <--START--> # cat /etc/dnsmasq.conf pid-file=/var/run/dnsmasq.pid user=nobody bind-dynamic interface=br0 interface=pptp* no-dhcp-interface=pptp* no-resolv servers-file=/tmp/resolv.dnsmasq no-poll...

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

    This is awesome, thank you guys for getting this up and running. Couple of tips for anyone getting ready to install: 1. Be patient. The install takes a while, the router may hit 100% cpu and sit there (quite a while meaning more than a few minutes 2. Adguard admin name and password is for the...

    Adblocking solutions for stock firmware

    Doesn't the stock firmware still advertise itself as a DNS server along with whatever you list? If so, pihole isn't a great option as you may get spotty results.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    AX68U (just arrived yesterday) Updated to most recent Asus firmware, then 386.3_2 then, because it was released 40 or so minutes after, to 386.4. All good so far, VPN director up and running with routing working. All seems well so far.

    Can someone clarify how the WAN DNS order works?

    That's not how DNS works, the client determines the order and you live with it :) Pick 2 DNS servers that do the same thing (blocking / security whatever), list them both. If one goes off line or performance reduces, the other one will answer the same way.

    How is DNS server chosen?

    So, 2 things: 1. It's cleaner to specify Pihole in the LAN | DHCP settings vs at the WAN level. 2. This often comes up on the pihole reddit, the answer is always the same: If you want to ensure you are always 'up' from a DNS perspective, run 2. I run a 4+ and also a VM with ubuntu server...

    Scheduled Reboot - Why?

    Or don't understand how tech should work ;) For me, if I notice 'glitchy' behaviour that requires regular reboots (that are not update / upgrade based) then I would either fix or try to replace that piece of gear. My Desktop runs VMs and is up 24/7 unless there are patches that require reboots...

    How is DNS server chosen?

    @gritty what are you trying to achieve? I.E. is it just curiosity, or is there some 'tweak' you're thinking of. What's the question behind the question?

    DNS over TLS and Recommended Privacy configurations

    @hhharsha36 I would SSH into the router. Then run 'netstat' and see if you're connecting to the upstream DNS on port 853. I.E. my output look like this "protected.canadianshield.cira.ca:853 TIME_WAIT" 853 = DNS over TLS :)

    Asus new firmware doesn't allow spaces in WPA2/WPA3 passwords

    I use a long passphrase and use spaces in my passwords. While not a crisis, if Asus changes which characters are allowed that would be unfortunate.
