AmneziaWG purports to be a modified WireGuard protocol to circumvent DPI devices/software/tools in cases where ISPs are blocking VPN services using DPI methods. Has anyone had a chance to look this project over? Would you consider releasing a community addon for Asuswrt-Merlin if it could be...

If DNS director is active and no warning is expected behavior in firmware 3006, then there is no problem. Otherwise it means that DNS director is not active.

Don't add any address to the destination. Yeah, it's actually dns.google. This is a very strange issue you are having. In firmware version 3004, when the DNS director is active, WAN DNS Setting/DNS Privacy Protocol shows the following warning colored yellow. Do you also have the same warning?

@Zarrow Oh my bad, sorry for wasting your time. We can monitor the name queries of the router itself (all your clients according to the scenario suggested to you in this thread) in the Netstat-NAT/Show only NAT to router itself section (WAN IP to x.x.x.x:53/853). DNS director currently...

Uh, no problem. If you want to monitor the activity of other clients connected to the same network, you don't need to define any private IP address. Other than that, you don't need to do anything else. Maybe if you check the “don't resolve names” option you will get a output in a short time. If...

Try testing with other similar tools. https://mullvad.net/en/check https://browserleaks.com/dns Also check your DNS queries using the method in this post. All clients on your network (except those set to use DNS-over-HTTPS) should be querying DNS using port (9.9.9.9,149.112.112.112:853)...

There must be no DNS defined in the DHCP Server settings. Note that in this scenario, the DNS-over-TLS addresses you have defined in the Private DNS on your Android devices will also be prevented.

Select strict instead of opportunistic (DNS-over-TLS Profile), and set global redirection to router instead of Quad9 (DNS Director).

When I manually disabled the enabled WireGuard VPN client with killswitch active, from the GUI/VPN Director/WireGuard clients status/Enable column, the killswitch functioned as in the previous firmware and prevented traffic from leaking to the WAN. I understood from this quote that if the VPN...

Just to clarify: when the router reboots or disconnects from PPPoE while the VPN client is active, is the client no longer active? If it is active, the kill switch should be working.

For me, Merlin 3004.388.8_2 firmware works almost perfectly in my use case scenario.👌💪👏👍

The VPN director cannot route the router's internet traffic to VPN. However, the new kill switch is activated if the router's IP address is configured in the VPN director to use one of the VPN clients and that VPN client is somehow deactivated, preventing both the local devices from connecting...

I think the new kill switch works like @Viktor Jaep's KILLMON tool. Here's how I can explain Jaep's tool as a regular user: All private IP addresses covered by KILLMON can only use VPN interfaces. If there is no active VPN client, i.e. if VPN tunnel is crashed or manually disabled, the traffic...

Hello! Asuswrt-Merlin firmware (388.8) will soon feature an upgraded VPN kill switch. How the upgraded VPN kill switch will work is briefly described here, what I read there made me think that it will now work like KILLMON. Will people who will be using the new Asuswrt-Merlin firmware in the...

Are you sure that the OpenVPN server configuration is correctly set? Can you try adding the following line to the active client conf file? For Google DNS: dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8
