    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    No I didn't miss that bit :D. It wouldn't be a problem if all clients simply resolved through the VPN's DNS. In fact, all clients do except the Synology for some unclear reason o_O So I kept the policy rules unchanged and I manually assigned OpenDNS IP's in the network config of the Syno. VPN is...

    RT-AC86U - multiple link down errors

    I had similar log entries. As I expected, it was caused by a bad cable connector. Cable replacement solved the problem.

    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    OK, I have simply followed an instruction (I think here on sbnforums) for this ruleset and it seemed to me like common practice. Is there any guidance or do/don'ts available in defining these rules? My dynamic DHCP range is .101 -.254. .100 and below is for static IP's based on MAC address...

    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    Sure, although I don't think this is the problem. I removed the bypass rule of the synology and it still cannot resolve. these are the relevant options & rules of my VPN client: <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Automatic start at boot time: Yes Accept DNS Configuration: Strict Create NAT on tunnel: Yes...

    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    Ok, I'll try that. Problem isn't solved, but I am convinced that diversion or skynet is the cause. I'm not familiar with the whitelisting yet, so I have to dive into that also. To be continued and any tips are still welcome!

    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    Well, an unwanted blocking was my 1st thought obviously. That is why I disabled Div/Pix/Sky but that didn't help. I can try whitelisting, didn't do that yet.

    AMTM app(s) seem to cause DNS resolving issue [VPN split tunneling setup]

    Recently I replaced my n66u for an ac86u. I moved the config quite exactly, including the split tunneling OpenVPN config, where my Synology NAS bypasses the permanent OpenVPN tunnel directly to the WAN (so I can have hasselfree remote access to its apps/webservices). This worked so far so good...

    Policy-based routing for VPN - how to handle DNS?

    Thanks for the quick reply! In my situation the Syno can't resolve at all. No manual configured DNS and no automatically assigned DNS of my ISP. Syno is configured to get its IP(fixed)/gateway/DNS by DHCP of the router.

    Policy-based routing for VPN - how to handle DNS?

    Very interesting topic, as I ran in similar DNS issues since I replaced my n66u for a ac86u and want exactly this! I also have a permanent VPN tunnel on the router and defined some exclusions that are directy routed to the WAN. One of these exclusions is my Synology, as I want to have it's...

    Diversion/Pixelserv: Just installed, but no adblocking at all

    Good move to move; indeed it looked like an AIProtection feature but now I understand it isn't :). Because it was placed a bit hidden in that last tab, I had forgotten it was enabled. I'd expect this somewhere in the WAN section. And maybe good to add a note that this DNSFilter bites with...

    Diversion/Pixelserv: Just installed, but no adblocking at all

    Wow, thanks for your quick and helpful reply! I did suspect (parts of) AIProtection, hence my question mark above, but meant to understand after reading some topics here that it could co-oexist. Merlin even recommended enabling it (though did not mention adblocking is this context). Well, I...

    Diversion/Pixelserv: Just installed, but no adblocking at all

    Hi all, I recently replaced my old n66u (always used Merlin FW) with the ac86u, primarily to continue Merlin support/updates, have better VPN speeds AND to enjoy good router level adblocking! A few months ago I installed Entware/Diversion/Pixelserv on the n66u without a hassle and was...
