Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

[M@rco]

Just system DNS

I'm having the same setup, currently not having dnscrypt installed, only CF as system DNS. I just killed my WAN connections (after 128 days uptime, but hey...) but I can't reproduce the issue you're experiencing. As soon as WAN is up again, everything works as supposed. Are these ads you're experiencing gone after rebooting the router? Aren't they accidently ads which weren't blocked in the first place?

Next time the wan restarts try accessing the servstats page. The instructions are on the first page of this thread. If you can, then pixelserv-tls is running.

I’ll definitely do that next time it goes down and I’ll see if the servstats come up.

Yes, they are gone after doing a reboot of the router. That’s what’s throwing me off.

Actually, they're not (instructions on the first page) Or maybe I'm overlooking them, it's getting late here...

Just visit http://192.168.1.2/servstats (replace the pixelserv IP if you changed it to something else).

Just to be sure, did you install Diversion Lite or Standard? If you chose Lite, pixelserv hasn't been installed by Diversion, hence you won't see servstats either.

Now I remember where I saw it, at the end of setup it is displayed briefly in the gui....

How does the "wc_blacklist" work?
like what diffrent types of blocking commands can I use in it?

(...) Doing some digging, it appears that Diversion doesn’t start back up automatically once the WAN comes back up and I have to manually restart the router to get it to take effect again. Is there anything I can do to have Diversion automatically restart once the WAN comes back up after going down?

Diversion operation is not affected by the WAN status. Maybe your devices have cellular data and use this while your router is Incommunicado to the outside world.

The pixelserv stats link is also shown in ep.

The wildcard blacklist blocks every subdomain that ends with, for example, foo.com.
ads.foo.com, news.foo.com, blog.bar.foo.com are blocked if you add foo.com to the wc_blacklist.
However, barfoo.com is not blocked since it is its own domain.

 ✔  Diversion Standard v4.0.1 auto-update complete

That went as smooth as a gallon of buttermilk going through a hound dog. Cheers!

Ps. What's hidden behind door number 4? The wife filter?

I'm having a slow and lazy day. Care to explain?

i think he's referring to the upgrade diversion....greyed out

So, in d, if you installed Diversion Lite, it would give you the option to upgrade to Diversion Standard.
All ported AB-Solution installation with pixelser-tls (ps) installed were ported to Diversion Standard.
Hence, for those there is a greyed out upgrade option.

Fingers crossed for the ‘wife filter’ here too.

Update when smoothly, looking good so far.

...
Note that in d, when running Re-install Diversion <version>, Diversion is reinstalled from local files, not overwriting (user modified) local files.
When running Update Diversion <version>, all files are pulled from my server again, overwriting (user modified) local files.

Does updating completely overwrite post-mount.sh?

I upgraded from abs to div last week and the next morning I saw some of my ipcams throwing errors. I found out it was because my ntpd script was gone from post-mount.sh. I added it back. Now all is working, but I thought that was a one time thing from upgrading to div from abs. Hopefully this won't happen again when it comes time to update div. I am guessing not, since it appears div is now using it's own post-mount.div so no real need to overwrite the .sh (as long as the .div link stays the same).

[Edit: Nevermind, I just updated to 4.0.1 from 4.0.0, and the ntp script is still there.]

FS working a great here, but still not quite the 'wife and kids button' I was looking for. What I really need is a shortcut on my phone that toggle both div and skynet with one click to check if white listing is needed. I can't count how many times last year that I had to ssh in to see if scripts were the culprit for a down site, and out of those times only 3 turned out needing to be whitelisted. A quick toggle button would be very useful... then I won't have to stop in the middle of mowing the lawn to see if there is a quick end to ww3 inside the home.

So i have installed diversion and ssh shows it as running.
anything else need to be done?
eg. changing dns on my router and such?
how does traffic get filtered through pixelserv-tls ip?
