I'm not sure how well the x3mrouting script works with the new firmware/routers since it hasn't been updated in quite awhile. Maybe someone else can assist with this request though.

X3mrouting are using ipsets which it puts in dnsmasq.conf.add to have dnsmasq populate the set.

You can add the same domain and ipsets to AGH:

nano /opt/etc/AdGuardHome/AdGuardHome.yaml

Scroll down to ipset section and add your ipsets, I.e:

ipset:
 - netflix.com,netflix.net,nflxext.com,nflximg.com,nflximg.net,nflxso.net,nflxvideo.net,amazonaws.com/NETFLIX-DNS,NETFLIX-DNS6

change the top-domains to the ones you intend and change the ipset name to your names. Remove the ipv6 name if you dont use it. After you done, save & exit then restart AdGuardHome. Check the logs so AdGuardHome started ok.

Ok can I use x3mrouting to create the ipset x3mRouting ipset_name=NETFLIX I get the error that I don't have the file in opt/tmp --- I can create it with this sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 Netflix dnsmasq=netflix.com,netflix.net,nflxext.com,nflximg.com,nflximg.net,nflxso.net,nflxvideo.net,amazonaws.com but then aren't I not supposed to be doing it that way because its not using dnsmasq ??

I guess to clarify what is the best way to actually create the ipset ?

& one other thing how would I add multiples to the adguard yaml not just netflix?:::
ipset:
- netflix.com,netflix.net,nflxext.com,nflximg.com,nflximg.net,nflxso.net,nflxvideo.net,amazonaws.com/NETFLIX-DNS,NETFLIX-DNS6

Sure, it will set everything up for you. It will create the ipsets, setup to restore the ipsets at boot, firewall rules for marking packets and routing rules. So lots of things are made, it does not matter for you if it adds the set to dnsmasq since it won't be populating it.

You can create it yourself if you wish, just follow the link I posted. But the ipset itself will not be enough, you also need firewall rules and routing rules. Using x3mrouting is very convenient and not bad in any way.
You will just need to add the domains and ipset to AGH so it will be populated.

One line per ipset, I'm guessing you can add as many lines as you wish.
