    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin Wifi (A Brief Guide)

    Yes. I was able to reduce unnecessary power even more with this method... the distance with which the signal weakens and cuts off is reduced significantly.

    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin Wifi (A Brief Guide)

    Undervolting AsusWRT/Merlin AC66B1 (Probably the same for the AC68U, AC1900, similar models such as Tenda AC15 & AC18), slight adjustments may be needed for other Asus models, and wifi standards such as Wifi 6/6e/7, and so on. • Regulatory limits: going below legal limits is fine. A brief...

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Yeah... that is probably the issue. i never tried restarting acrylic as is only running as a forwarding proxy. But I could have tried that just to be sure. I use acrylic to prevent ptr and AAAA requests, which cuts the diversion log in half; it also acts to reduce attack surface area by...

    Yeah, it is the last thing I suspected, but the only thing that I could think of after checking acryclic dns and windows hosts. Windows shouldn't require a reboot to reload hosts or flush the dns.

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Solved; I seem to have fixed the issue, I believe a reboot solved the problem. I had set in my windows hosts file: 192.168.50.2 live.thunderbird.net Yesterday, #'ing it did not solve the problem, nor did flushing dns cache. After commenting out that line in the hosts file and flushing dns...

    It is in my own diversion denylist. How is diversion blocklist intercepting third party DoH in Waterfox G6? Dropped https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jdlingyu/ad-wars/master/sha_ad_hosts

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    Everything but one browser I use goes through the router/diversion, one browser uses DoH for quick diagnostics/debugging, typically to determine if something is being blocked by the router. Somehow diversion is intercepting third party DoH DNS requests related to diversion block list. For...

    (solved) Dnscrypt blocked-names.txt automatically deleted upon modification

    Its downloaded to /jffs/dnscrypt So, point dnscrypt-proxy.toml's blocklist to the USB/Addons folder you are saying?

    (solved) Dnscrypt blocked-names.txt automatically deleted upon modification

    I will note, if the files contents is replaced with random text, or empty, this problem does not exist. Its just the current blocklist im using thats being deleted, like it is being scanned as malware or something of that matter.

    (solved) Dnscrypt blocked-names.txt automatically deleted upon modification

    For the last week or so, blocked-names.txt is being deleted immediately after saving if I edit the file via winscp. The only way to prevent the file from being deleted is by doing the edits on a windows machine, and copying a backup from the windows machine into the dnscrypt folder, I use winscp...

    Diversion Diversion 5.1.3 - the Router Ad-Blocker, May 09, 2024

    5.1. is 25-50 times faster at processing big lists after allow/deny listing. Deny list processing is ridiculously fast now. Other issues associated with whitelisting have also disappeared. Maybe its something else but for whatever reason over all browsing experience has sped up significantly...

    Apparently Googles Gemini Pro is superior to Gpt4 in math and code. [source 1, source 2], I use it freely and anonymously on Poe.com, or using the poe app, (windows/ios/andriod) with 75 times a day free use limit. All that was needed for sign up was a disposable email, in the phone app version...
