[thelonelycoder]

Can you please check this site https://www.andrerieu.com/ if diversion is enable, in the computer of my wife dont open (connected by wireless) and on my computer the site open (by wire), but if disable diversion the site open on both, I dont know why, any ideias?

You might have to whitelist the following domains, add one by one, testing if it works now:

www.googletagmanager.com
loader.wisepops.com
popup.wisepops.com

Bug 1: The wording may be confusing but the state is correct in both lines. Will be more clearer in the next Diversion release. Thanks for reporting!
Bug 2: When whitelisting a domain found in the blacklist, it will correctly be removed in the blacklist.
Bug 3: Check your Syslog, something is restarting Dnsmasq constantly and it's not Diversion unless you invoke it through it. Next Diversion release will have the tail -F flag which continues to try to tail after the pipe is broken.

tx, well I had confirmed multiple times it was in the whitelist and saved, and processed them half a dozen times, it was still blocked; it only worked after removing it from blacklist. It may have been blocked at two sources, my own blacklist, and the blockinglist. I thought perhaps that was the problem.

Thought i would give this whirl myself, got it installed all fine but i am still getting adds that ADblock would normally disable, the terminal instuction is telling me "
To import the pixelserv-tls certificate
into browser and devices, open
192.168.11.2/ca.crt in a browser."

When i type that in my browser i just get a blank white page, so im not sure if its working because of this ?

Diversion 4.1.5 is now available

What's new in Diversion 4.1.5
- The whitelist now has precedence over the blacklist and wildcard-blacklist. Exact whitelisted domains will be removed during processing from both black lists. Removed domains will be shown in el, <list>.
- New predefined blocking lists composition in b, this only applies when re-selecting a predefined list.
- The ads counter ac is now significantly faster and non-disruptive to Dnsmasq.
- Hosted lists in el are now limited to 1000 domains.
- When disabling a hosted list in el, it now asks to keep or discard entries in the list.
- Better description or wording in el.
- Option to exclude client IP address(es) in stats in c, 2.
- Fix for missing Dnsmasq log files error during stats generation (Diversion and uiDivStats).
- Fix for that annoying 'file' count result output in the stats (Diversion and uiDivStats).
- Fixes an error where alternate blocking list Dnsmasq log files were incorrectly included in the regular stats generation (Diversion and uiDivStats).
- Following the Dnsmaq log file f now retries if pipe is broken.
- Size of Entware folder (/opt) is now shown in ep.
- UI now shows file size of Dnsmasq log file(s).
- Alerts if discontinued support.it-mate.co.uk hosts file is in use for blocking list when installing or updating Diversion.

This update includes this previously pushed update with no version change (minor update):
- Completely removed check "Wan: Use local caching DNS server as system resolver (default: No)" in Diversion.

Or some particular IOT devices that skew the stats with their noisy unstoppable habits. Which was requested by a user for this very reason.

Diversion works out of the box for the majority of users. You may have to tweak something a little with the help of the FAQ: https://diversion.ch/diversion/faq.html

yes had a read of that, i used it to try and have it work on my laptop over the ovpn server, i found the setting to "In the Advanced Settings (dropdown VPN Details) set Advertise DNS to clients to Yes." but cant find this setting.... "On the General settings of the OpenVPN Server page, set Client will use VPN to access to Both."

Could someone running diversion try this website and see if the ad choices ad dissapears for you ?... https://www.se7ensins.com/

Have you tried DNSFilter and setting the global mode to router?

The new predefined blocking file sets with their hosts files. Remember you may customize any of the presets to your liking.

Also, since I was adding a sort of manual for amtm to the website, the hidden commands in both apps:
https://diversion.ch/amtm-usage.html
https://diversion.ch/diversion/manual/hidden-diversion-commands.html

Be aware that in Diversion, only use u to update, not the 1233 option. The update function does a lot of checking and maintaining Diversion sane during that rush of output scrolling up.

Nice of you to share all the hidden commands...

Yeah, your 380.70 firmware is old.

 

[heysoundude]

He's running an n66u...that's the last firmware merlin wrote for that hardware.
@loady it may be time to replace/repurpose/retire that old war horse, because some of this may be beyond what it can handle, or will likely be soon enough.
with the AX stuff coming out, the AC86 is starting to get rather affordable...and the AC68 is getting downright cheap.

Something must be afoot withm setup
