    Tricky request: Can I block EVERYTHING except one URL (netflix) for ONE specific device (my TV)?

    Hi! So that's basically the question. I have an AC68U, and I'd like to block every internet access, except for the only exception, the Netflix servers. All google/samsung tracking, I'd love to be able to get rid of. But again, I'd need this rule to only apply to that specific device. Is this...

    Block specific devices from reaching internet?

    Thanks! I had no idea these options were so easily available! Thinking of adding some IoT devices, but they're to be controlled from a Home Assistant server, I don't want them exposed to the internet themselves.

    Block specific devices from reaching internet?

    Holy cow...I was thinking complicated rules just like what you said. Apparently even the stock firmware includes this. On the network map screen, not clicking on View Clients, but on the bubble on top of it. This shows the clients on a column on the right, and you can block specific devices...

    Block specific devices from reaching internet?

    Hi guys! I have an Asus AC68U running Merlin v384.19. I have several devices which I don't trust, but which I'd still like to have internal LAN connectivity. But I don't want them reaching the internet, though. How could I do this? Is there any kind of IP or MAC block for this? I also run a...

    DNSFilter issue

    Thanks for the help! I'm actually not sure how that setting on the pihole would be. I made the opposite, setting the DNSfilter global rule to no filter. The default DHCP setting is going to grant them the pihole DNS address anyway, filtering will happen there regardless. Then any specific...

    DNSFilter issue

    Hmmm thanks! Seems that doesn't work. If I set the Global Filter Mode to Custom 1 (Custom DNS 1 being 192.168.1.50), the DNS resolution immediately stalls. Is there any other setting outside of this page that could affect how the DNSFilter behaves? EDIT: I might have found it. I changed the WAN...

    DNSFilter issue

    Hi guys! First I'll explain my current setup...I have an Asus AC68U with Merlin v384.13 at the moment. IP: 192.168.1.1 Router DNS1: 192.168.1.50 (it's a pihole container) Router DNS2: 192.168.1.55 (another pihole on a different machine, for redundancy) So far, these work if manually set on any...

    Openvpn help

    Hi guys! It's been quite a while since I last used a openvpn server...Last time (maybe 8 years ago) I still didn't have a nice router presenting a form with all the options needed. However I'm a bit confused, and seems I fail to connect my KDE laptop to the VPN... Can you help walking me...

    Guest network with separate DHCP server?

    Thanks...I guess I'll disable the Pihole's DHCP then. Thanks for the help!

    Guest network with separate DHCP server?

    Thanks...that was the recommendation of PiHole, at least for better tracking of the connected devices on its statistics console.

    Guest network with separate DHCP server?

    Hi guys! My network has a separate DHCP server (mi Pi-hole), and now I'm considering to completely isolate some devices I don't trust so much in my network, but that still need internet. So the guest networks function of my AC68U seemed a great idea! Except of course, because the network is...

    Router becomes unresponsive after a day

    Ok...Sorry for the bother. Seems I can't replicate the issue, just as it came it went. Two hang ups in as many days, and now it's 48h running stable with a normal RAM consumption...I'd leave it be for now, I'll update if there's any further issues to troubleshoot. Thanks for the help guys!

    Router becomes unresponsive after a day

    Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't see anything very obvious on the syslog. And htop now shows a normal memory usage, idling for the last 8 hours at 111-115MB. Yesterday before it died I could see it was at around 250MB, which is really scratching the limits, even if it has swap file. So...I'll...

    Router becomes unresponsive after a day

    Hi guys! I've been having no trouble with my AC68U for years...I'm currently running Merlin v384.9. And after several hours running, I slowly start losing my connection, and not even the page for the router loads. I need to completely power it off with the power button and start it up. What...

    Skynet Skynet is blocking my netflix!

    Hi guys! So...a simple one, but I can't quite fix it. Seems skynet is blocking the IMAGES on netflix. That means, the miniatures any netflix app or the browser version load of the shows on the main screen. So, if you go and blindly click anything, you get to see the trailer or even the movie/tv...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Thanks! Just read a bit more, mentioning this is an addon to the official Asus firewall. This means that it also has the same lack of HTTPS site blocking, is this correct? Thanks for your help!

    AC68U bricked during tomato firmware attempt.

    Hmmmm. So Skynet actually is an addon to the Asus firmware firewall, which already doesn't block any HTTPS website. Skynet doesn't seem to improve this. AB-Solution didn't seem to block the URLs I requested, either... My playstation downloads firmware updates the moment I turn it on :( Seems...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Hi...How can you check the existing URLs in the blacklist? I"m trying to see which URLs I have blacklisted myself, to see if I need to remove any. Thanks!
