    Just wondering what these log entries mean

    Tools like arp-scan, tcpdump and wireshark make interfaces go promiscuous mode so that they can capture raw network traffic. Other entries are most likely related to the event, might be WiFi driver specific - but this I don't know.

    RT-AX88U maxing out a core and regularly showing 60+ MB/s upload

    You should check if the attacker didn't connect their mobile app to your router. I'm unsure but I think you can disable Asus remote management service (thus preventing access vis mobile app) with "aae_disable_force=1" nvram variable.

    Asus RT-AX58U v2 Merlin: Route all traffic to Pi-hole (running directly on router itself)

    I'm seeing 250-300 when not using TrendMicro services here. I run Entware on /tmp which takes around 100MB as tmpfs and I'm still sitting at ~200MB free, enough to run Pi-hole with heavier lists.

    Anyone noticed leds not working on their device?

    I'm using my scripts from asuswrt-scripts repo plus Pi-hole Entware package. Seems like this is on point, some are brighter than others here as well

    Anyone noticed leds not working on their device?

    I just noticed that some leds stopped working on my AX58Uv2. When it boots only the switch leds light up, randomly I can see that WAN or 5G WiFi led is on or blinking on activity, never seen power and 2.4G led to be on so far. Obviously, I already tried factory reset. It doesn't bother me that...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    The config file might revert to default if you make any mistake in formatting and it cannot parse it Missing temperature display is to be expected and is not a big deal. `pihole -up` will not be supported, updates will be delivered through opkg. If you had pihole.toml placed prior to...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    You should probably stop pihole-FTL before making changes as it writes the config on shutdown when restarting. You can also modify the configuration through the web UI which is way more user friendly.

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Check if you didn't get rate limited by Github URL slightly changed per @thelonelycoder suggestion, see here https://www.snbforums.com/threads/pi-hole-directly-on-the-router-yes.90719/post-914979

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Unfortunately this doesn't help me much, it wants to use hardcoded 'root' user for /opt/etc/cron.d - https://github.com/Entware/rtndev/blob/master/cron/patches/200-crond.patch#L83 I might have to use the /opt/var/spool/crontab by default instead of making it optional workaround -...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    It seems like Entware's cron doesn't execute entries from cron.d when root user is not called root... can't see any other workaround than copying the cron file to spool directory

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    The installer will not work so you will have to install the files manually. You will also need php dependencies which I believe are all available on the Entware repo. Then adjust paths in the following config variables (pihole-updatelists.conf): CONFIG_FILE=/opt/etc/pihole-updatelists.conf...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Implemented Whenever pihole.toml already exists or not appropriate message will be displayed when installing/upgrading:

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Once the Pi-hole v6 is released I plan to use Github releases for versioning (pretty much copying the way they handle it with docker-pi-hole repo), the code for update checking is already prepared (updatechecker.sh). It will show a notification in the web UI's footer when new version is...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    This is something I gotta add to the install/wiki, it has to be explicitly set with `pihole setpassword` command for now. I might actually add this to install/upgrade script to generate a random one.

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Should this matter? I guess people will get confused because the URL will be different compared to Entware's. Entware's build scripts produce folders exactly like the ones I'm using, and the 'Architecture' variable in the package manifest uses the same scheme. Will have to look into doing this...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    The daemon seems to take only few MBs of memory but it also uses shared memory for the database contents (I believe it is counted as cached memory by the system), so you probably want to have free memory equal to at least the size of gravity.db. The gravity update script can spike memory usage...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    So, I squeezed Pi-hole V6 beta into Entware package. I've been working on this for some time and now it reached a stage where there is not much to add to this based on my testing. Got motivated by the open feature request on the Pi-hole's Discourse and also by a need to have a "backup" Pi-hole...

    ASUS RT-AX58U and wireguard: only 1 client works

    You did add multiple VPN clients in the router's web UI, right? A common mistake is to use the same config on multiple devices.

    ASUS RT-AX58 - Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.24762

    Last core in V2 model is reserved, I believe some devices come with WiFi chips without hardware acceleration so one core is dedicated for that purpose. Saturate your WiFi network and you will notice its usage go up.

    AX82U Dead cpu core

    Pretty sure on some devices last core is reserved to handle Wireless traffic. If you stress your WiFi it might show few % of usage.
