HI Guys, I have RT-AC68U with 3.0.0.380_3831.
using downloadmaster heavily and spotify via chromecast.
the thing is spotify works much better if you use the embedded "devices available" casting feature but it come with a price - lots of ads.
1. does anyone managed to block spotify ads using Entware script on marlin FW?
2. will I need to search for an alternative solution for downloadmaster?

Thank
relsaar
 
Have some problems here. I just have to run the 4 lines from post 1 correct or is there anything else i need to do?

2. will I need to search for an alternative solution for downloadmaster?

1. Blocking Spotify ads can be tricky since they are probly embedded in the stream.
2. doubt that download master would be impacted unless it uses port 80 or 443.
 
Spotify offer an ads free service - you should consider it.
 
grep: /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add: No such file or directory

seems like it doesnt create the add file for some odd reason

what you could do is

touch /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add

then rerun ublockr
 
Hi @swetoast, great piece of software you provide, thanks!
The only issue I faced with is that it messes up Yandex web apps (it's like Google maps, mail etc. more convenient here in Russia :)). I see yandex How can it be fixed? I see a lot of *.yandex.ru records in the ublockr lists. Unfortunatly I cannot figure out which exact domain is impacted. Tried to whitelist the yandex.ru domain, but it didn't help, looks like I need to whitelist the exact domains. Could you please hint on the optimal solution?
Thank you in advance!
 
yandex.ru

Add that domain to whitelist it should work if it doesn't then I'm going to see if there are any issues
 
Hi @swetoast, I don't know the reason, but the blocking starts being unstable over time. After router restart it's okay, whitelisting works fine, but within several hours the yandex websites stop loading. Any clue?

I looks like nothing is blocked at all..
What seems strange to me is that whenever I enter a blacklisted domain I get redirected to the router login page... Entering the ip of pixelserv works fine on the other hand. Thanks in advance

req = 22 sta=19 means at least 3 ad requests hitting pixelserv. So I think it's working for you.

Did you follow swetoast's instructions to have ublockr setup properly?
 
@kvic yeah I followed his instructions. What should I see after I enter a blacklisted domain. I used a self-compiled pixelserv (very early one) version on an old dd-wrt router and every time I entered a blacklisted domain I got redirected to the pixel itself. Now I get to the merlin login page.

@swetoast here are the logs after a reboot. I removed some kernel/openvpn entries.

try a domain thats on that list and see if it points toward pixelserv on you router
 
Code:

www.doubleclick.com
192.168.1.1    www.doubleclick.com
Results:
  • web gui access via http & https: redirected to the web gui
  • web gui access only via https: safari couldn't load site (certs are installed though; also my MacBook ran out of memory when I enabled https...)

So it seems like it's working, right?

Btw... thanks for your help!
