    Entware not updating

    Just in case this helps anyone else, I fixed this issue of not being able to update entware by exiting out of AMTM and running opkg update. Immediately after doing that, I went back into AMTM and all entware packages updated perfectly.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 is now available

    I would just like to say "thank you" for bringing this default setting change in "Roaming Assistant" to our attention. My 3d printers all stopped working properly on my network after updating to this new firmware, and restarting / changing SSID's / etc didn't work. All I had to do is disable...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 is now available

    Having a strange issue following this latest update. It had been about 8 months or so since I did my last firmware update, so my firmware and AMTM / Adguard Home stuffs were all out of date. I updated the router firmware, AMTM and Adguard Home, and everything in my LAN works great except I...

    Configure Adguard TLS DNS with Asuswrt-Merlin

    You'll want / need to set up DDNS first. Then, sign up for Adguard DNS and go through the setup process. https://adguard-dns.io/en/welcome.html After setting up, go into the settings page for your router (on Adguard.dns.io, not your local router setup page), and you'll see your device ID. I...

    Suricata Suricata 6 is available for testing

    Just found a thread from last year that you commented on regarding my question. Seems its not only very possible but already done for the exact router I referenced :)

    Suricata Suricata 6 is available for testing

    Speaking of RAM... Is there anything about the firmware that makes it "physically impossible" to upgrade the internal RAM in these Asus routers? We see people upgrading "non-upgradeable" ram / storage in M1 Macs, and so on. Just because the manufacturer wouldn't recommend it, or just because...

    Suricata Suricata 6 is available for testing

    It's kind of shocking that this project is not getting more attention. This seems to be THE answer for those with Merlin concerned about sending all our data to Trend Micro. Yea, these routers could use more ram, but multiple people have mentioned no noticeable slowdown. It would be...

    Adguard Home - "disable" bootstrap DNS Servers for 100% encrypted DNS via 443 / 853

    No relation, it was just a question I was asked in response to my original post.

    Adguard Home Local DNS Encryption question

    Everything that I've read regarding encrypting local LAN DNS says "you shouldn't do that, there's no reason for it, and it will cause problems". But nobody says how to do it anyway outside of installing certificates on every machine (at least I can't find it - with one exception noted later)...

    Adguard Home - "disable" bootstrap DNS Servers for 100% encrypted DNS via 443 / 853

    According to everything that I've read, the maxed out memory thing is not really a concern due to a good portion of it being cache, etc. Here is my updated config (I'm currently experimenting with Unbound): [/router.asus.com/][::]:553 [/www.asusnetwork.net/][::]:553...

    RX-AX88U + Adguard Home + Unbound - DNS Leak Test Result...

    Can't TLS encryption be enabled in the unbound config file so that requests made to the root servers will be encrypted as well? Maybe something like the below video except I would point the certificate path to the same place that I pointed Adguard Home certificate path to.... which is the free...

    RX-AX88U + Adguard Home + Unbound - DNS Leak Test Result...

    That is correct, I figured I would just bypass that whole question / issue by installing unbound. I've removed the SDNS entries completely from the upstream. I have some reading to do I guess as to the cons of using unbound. Seems like cutting out the middleman, as long as my router doesn't...

    That's what I needed to know! Thank you!

    RX-AX88U + Adguard Home + Unbound - DNS Leak Test Result...

    Quick question... What should a DNS leak test from the following sites look like assuming I have a proper configuration of Adguard Home + Unbound? From dnsleaktest.com extended test I get 1 server result, and its my IP Address but my ISP is the hostname. The hostname I don't recognize. The...
