    IPv6 precedes IPv4 translation

    I'm using a RT-AX86U router with firmware version 386.5_2. I have a DDNS address that translates to both A and AAAA [not really] records. Therefore, I have IPv4 and IPv6 dynamically translated. # nslookup [ddns.name] Server: 127.0.0.1 Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain Name...

    Which CDNs support edns-client-subnet?

    I have been looking around for info on what DNS providers use EDNS Client Subnet and stumbled onto this old article with an updated list (from last year) of who does and does not. Interestingly Akamai and Fastly, two of the biggest players in streaming content, only support ECS on Google and...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I have everything I'm running in my signature. I added dnsmon to init-start. Yesterday, I decided to give the GeForce NOW QoS a try, I lost access to the router and ended up having to wipe the settings (WPS on boot method) and rebuild from scratch. Today, I lost power for about 20 seconds and...

    I have a RT-AX88U running the latest Merlin. I have the router configured to connect to ProtonVPN and route traffic to it with the VPN Director.

    Configuring VPNDirector to forward to Pi-hole DNS

    I committed the cardinal sin of updating my RT-AC68U's firmware (to 386.4) without backing up the configuration. (I do have a backup, but it's a few months old, and I'd rather just roll-forward with a fix than roll-back.) I only noticed and learned about the VPN Director after seeing my...

    Custom DNS servers not working

    Hi, Wondering if someone can suggest what I might be doing wrong here. I have an Asus RT-AX88u and have configured my ISPs WAN IP & Custom DNS servers, the internet works fine but for some reason the router still uses my ISPs DNS rather than the custom ones I've set. If I go to the 'Internet...

When (in FreshTomato) I set up the DNS manually adding the one I want (router or VPN ones), NTP stop to work (blinking "Not available" behind Time didn't got caught in the screenshot), the date is wrong, thus nothing...

    DNS-OVER-TLS AND VPN — 3.0.0.4.386.45956

    Now that asuswrt-official [RT-AC86U] supports DNS-over-TLS …. well, actually, do we care? What I mean to say is: If I already use a VPN (PIA)—currently only on individual clients since I’m using the ASUS stock firmware again—whereby DNS lookups are encrypted, (by the VPN—to the VPN DNS), … (1)...

    Hello everyone, I am having trouble achieving my goal of a dual-router setup in my home network, where I'm able to resolve the IP address of a host while connected to the other router. To make this more explicit: [ISP] ==> [MODEM] ==> (WAN) [AC68U] (LAN) ==> (WAN) [AX88U] (LAN) ==> (ETH1)[PC]...

    IPv6 DNS

    Hello! Router is RT-AX88U with 386.3_2 firmware. Clients are getting ISP IPv6 DNS instead of Google IPv6 DNS (DoT), manually set. System Log > IPv6 shows the expected Google DNS, 2001:4860:4860::8888 2001:4860:4860::8844. Is this the expected behaviour or we are doing something wrong?
