    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Hi, reading thru the FAQ, there seems to be conflicting info? In question 4) Diversion is installed and I still see ads, it says at the end that "Ad-blocking WILL NOT work when your device uses an upstream DNS Server, like Google's 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4" But in question 0) How to use an...

    Prevent Guest Router from accessing Local LAN

    Not at home to try, but wouldn't blocking 192.168.1.x also block the guest router access to the outside world since they need to pass thru the main router (192.168.1.1) to go out?

    Prevent Guest Router from accessing Local LAN

    Been trying searching around but haven't found any concrete answers, but it looks simple to do with IPtables? Basically I want to restrict the bandwidth of my guest network, so instead of fooling around with QoS and watnot, I got an old Asus RTN16 (100mbs LAN ports) as my guest router to cap...

    DNS Filtering with Custom DNS problem

    I have DNS FIltering on my kids computers devices to OpenDNS Family and that works great, but i wanted to add AdBlocking to those devices as well. What i did was setup Ubuntu on a VM running PiHole with OpenDNS Family as the upstream DNS, that way their devices get both adblocking and safety...

    Parental Control DNS Filtering not working with PiHole

    Thanks got it installed now. It does show a warning that DNS Filtering does not work during install, but everything seems fine. The two clients assigned in DNS Filtering still route thru OpenDNS sans adblocking as expected.

    Parental Control DNS Filtering not working with PiHole

    Running Merlin's build 380.62_1 PiHole is a ad-filtering DNS server running on a raspi3. I put the PiHole ip on the LAN section ( 192.168.1.250 ) And it seems to work fine, it routes all the DNS queries to that IP. The problem is that this breaks the previous DNS Filters for OpenDNS...

    Prevent Guest Router from Accessing main subnet

    Yeah my bad wasnt clear. I think the way to do it would be dropping all packets coming from 192.168.1.200 to the local lan.

    Prevent Guest Router from Accessing main subnet

    I have a spare router acting as guest hot spot, with its own dhcp server. Its connected to the main router via its WAN port, so it gets its IP from the main Asus router. Reason for this vs enabling guest network is because I can set QoS priority on all guests just using the second routers IP...

    Best replacement for RTn66u for openvpn client

    I need to replace my RT66U due to low openvpn client performance ~10mbps, which judging from what i read is as much as i will from the 600mhz cpu. Combing thru some old threads, i see mentions that the AC56U has been one of the best choices due to its 1GH dual core cpu. Is there a better...

    DNS Filtering on Guest Network

    It is the N66U. I ended up using a spare Linksys E2000 with DD WRT as guest WAP, it was easy enough enough to setup + it puts them on a separate subnet from my main LAN. The option you mention looks good tho, so manual DNS entries take precedence over the global setting huh? That could work...

    Selective Routing with Asuswrt-Merlin

    No worries, my backup plan was just using an old E2000 with DD-WRT that is collecting dust as the guest network provider + pushing opendns to its clients.

    Selective Routing with Asuswrt-Merlin

    Tried that with 2 different phones, got a new ip, but it was still from the main subnet. I will try flashing the version you are using, clear nvram and start fresh see if i can that to work.

    Selective Routing with Asuswrt-Merlin

    Tried this, changed to wl0.1 just to try to separate guest network, when i connect to the guest im still getting IP from the 192.168.1.x range.

    DNS Filtering on Guest Network

    I am trying to push OpenDNS filtering on to the guest network for when my kids friends come over, i found a post from a couple years ago that detailed how it was done, however i can't get it to work with the latest release of merlin...
