    I want to use host names instead of IP addresses. From what I learned about this, I configured like these: I access to router's UI using "router.local" just fine. I assigned "192.168.1.210" with "pihole.local" but it does not work. Not sure if it is related but Pihole is a docker container...

    I have 3 DHCP ranges instead of 1

    I just noticed this in my syslog for the first time ever. I only set up 1 DHCP range, but the log is showing 3. I did add a new WiFi DHCP node today. The 3rd range below is my "real" one. Is this normal or did I mess something up?

    LAN IPv6 addresses didn't update after upstream update.

    Upstream router address is updated every 3 days by ISP. After that, native mode WAN is successfully configured by SLAAC, but the Asus router didn't send a new DHCP-PD request. Upstream router's RA server M and O options are set. Need a 'service restart_"wan_if 0"' to fix it.
