Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

They have no travel restrictions as of yet, so I should be fine.

Trust, but verify: the scuttlebutt here in Canada is that things change on Monday 16mar, probably around 15:00Z.

Yeah, that flight YYZ to ZRH was also cancelled. I booked a new flight via London.

Did you ever make it home safe?

This is going to be a silly question. Do we need to setup our local dns server 1 on the ac68u to the ip address assigned for diversion. Eg 192.168.1.2? Reading the setup / installation, it looks like diversion just works. I'm seeing pretty much no ads apart from the ones via amazon/ youtube.

No, the Pixelserv IP is not a DNS server.

Not yet, but I'm at Heathrow, waiting for my last leg to Zurich. Tired and exhausted, enjoying a Cappuccino and Dessert at one of the Cafe's, after watching the whole first series of The Mentalist from LAX to LHR.

If you set up Diversion Standard, everything ought to be setup as it should as your no-ads experience confirms.

First thing that caught my eye is Bridge of Sighs. How fitting!

Just noticed that whenever I follow log filtering by blocked domains by device IP(f, 4), dnsmasq gets restarted, reproduceable everytime. Is this normal behaviour?

That might not be triggered by Diversion but some service event outside of Diversions control.

I'll investigate, the only change was unbound's uninstall last week and skynet's update to 7.14 this morning.
I did take note that all options 1-3 from follow log doesn't trigger the dnsmasq restart, only opt. 4.

I thought Diversion will restart dnsmasq to enable log-queries=extra for logging by client IP...

Better to have it enabled always via ds.

Edited to correct parameter name.

So you mean logging is off all the while and opt. 4 restart dnsmasq to enable logging? I thought logging is always on that's why it's unusual that opt. 4 restarts dnsmasq again?

log-queries=extra is different than logging. It includes the client ip in every line in the log.

Edited to correct parameter name.

Red: blocked
Yellow: forwarded upstream
Green: incoming query
Blue: cached response
Gray: everything else

Thanks for that Dave.

Home sweet home. Thanks all for caring!

If option 4 enables log-extra, I assume it disables log-extra when you exit the option since everytime I use option 4 it restarts dnsmasq. Is that about a correct statement?
