Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

[thelonelycoder]

i ran into this myself. I found that removing pixelserv from entware then reinstalling it did the trick.

opkg remove pixelserv-tls
opkg install pixelserv-tls

probably better let diversion reinstall it to make sure you get the custom init script

Might be easiest to do this.

On the other hand, his might be a very old Entware version and a uninstall/reinstall of Diversion would use the latest available versions.

Thanks for the help!

First I removed pixelserv (as told by forum member tomsk):

opkg remove pixelserv-tls

Then, from main menu of Diversion: d , 2. (Re-install Diversion Standard).

Now I have

 ep  pixelserv-tls        192.168.1.3 v2.1.2

Glad the Diversion code is so smart to figure that out all by itself!

Diversion 4.03 is ready? See recent post in Skynet thread....or is that just a tease?

No, this is a teaser.

Hope the new version includes a way to sync the blocklist, whitelist and uw_blocklist to my other routers, automatic. Perhaps it can be done in a simular way that we do when useing custome host files.

Again, this is planned for the Diversion Pro edition. Lite and Standard will not have such features. Diversion Pro will not be available this year.

since upgraded to diversion whitelist is not working, getting certificate errors to all whitelisted domains. using another Custom DNS and bypassing diversion resolves the problem. Any ideas?

I am unable to add host in the customised option. Why?

I am able to add others except this “https://adblock.mahakala.is/”

I think you should add it as "adblock.mahakala.is"

 

[DonnyJohnny]

Tried. Also same result.
I am able to add
http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt

I am thinking coz the site is not in raw form. Wonder what is the raw link.

use https, not http as you actually did.

Diversion standard?
Try purge generated pixelserv-tls certificates in ep.

Nope...

I just tried to add https://adblock.mahakala.is (for testing) but am getting the same result as @DonnyJohnny

 Paste web address and press [Enter]

 Enter hosts list  [q=Quit] https://adblock.mahakala.is

  ✖  This address did not respond, check its validity.

Address gets resolved succesfully:

Oct  6 18:17:21 dnsmasq[1227]: query[AAAA] adblock.mahakala.is from 127.0.0.1
Oct  6 18:17:21 dnsmasq[1227]: cached adblock.mahakala.is is 2a00:1158:2d:300::cc

Oct  6 18:17:21 dnsmasq[1227]: cached adblock.mahakala.is is 134.119.234.204

The address is reachable, just verified in browser.

yes diversion standard. How do I purge the certs?

 

[DonnyJohnny]

What I have done so far and still in vain.

Disable dot(stubby). Use 8.8.8.8 as dns via webgui.
Reinstall diversion.
Disable Skynet.

Still same result.

https://adblock.mahakala.is needs a user Agent to work. The blocking file updater update-bf.div uses -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0" because I like Firefox...

Workaround: Select Medium predefined list which contains the mahakala list. Then customize that.

In ep, Purge generated pixelserv-tls certificates perhaps?
