I am having a strange problem with diversion where its adblocking won't start. If I enable ad blocking via amtm's menu it does actually enable, but if I return to the ad-blocking page in amtm->diversion to confirm if its running it shows me its not and at that point ad blocking disables.

Eg. I go to the amtm->diversion-> adblocking page and press a to enable adblocking, then go test a web page I can confirm its blocking ads. But then if I go back to the amtm->diversion-> adblocking page to check if it shows enabled it shows its disabled, Now if I test a web page at this point ad are allowed.


Wondering if anyone has seen this issue. I have force updated but have not yet done a full uninstall of diversion.




On this page if I enable ad-blocking it seems to work but if I then exit the menu and return its once again disabled.

On this page I can't click on the Lists or Options tabs, and if I start diversion, Dnsmasq loggin or ad-blocking the toggles fit but when I leave the page and return it's all turned off. Note: if I enable in amtm and look at this page it never shows enabled.

This is an odd issue...you may try uninstalling (make sure you reboot router after uninstaling it) Diversion & reinstalling it again. If the problem persist you might need reset USB/SSD drive. This is how my setup looks:

The a menu is a toggle option turning blocking on and off. You shouldn’t be entering ‘a’ menu item normally. What’s in the system log when you restart Diversion or dnsmasq?
