    Hi there! Tried with no results. No errors and no modifications were made on the file. I don't understand, because as 'admin' user, I have permissions on that file :S admin@4G-AC86U:/tmp/home/root# /jffs/scripts/dnsmasq.postconf /etc/dnsmasq.conf admin@4G-AC86U:/tmp/home/root# cat...

    Hi there! I'm not using my own scripts anymore.

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi there! I have set them in the corresponding PiHole section: I have your script for swap, but it doesn't seem to be running: SWAP_FILE="/tmp/mnt/ENTWARE/swap.img" # swap file path, like /tmp/mnt/USBDEVICE/swap.img, leave empty to search for it in /tmp/mnt/*/swap.img SWAP_SIZE=2097152 #...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi there! I managed to install the package on my 4G-AC86U with AsusWRT Stock v3.0.0.4.382_4162 (following the instructions of @jacklul's GitHub repository) with no issues (only some warnings). These options are not available on my router. Is there any possibility to configure them...

    Yeah, entware wiki instructions worked like a charm on my old router. I will keep you informed with my (slow) progress. BR

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi @jacklul! There is something I don't understand. In order to use the “https://github.com/jacklul/asuswrt-scripts” scripts. You need to have ENTWARE installed and functional. And to use pihole as an entware package, is it necessary to reinstall ENTWARE using the...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi! Yes, I use the standard AsusWRT. Asuswrt-Merlin is not compatible with 4G routers. So using your scripts and developments is the way to add additional functionality to my router. Wow, I didn't notice that ‘swap.sh’ script. Maybe my firmware is old enough to not include that set of cleanup...

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi @jacklul! I am following the recommendations to install the prerequisites (asuswrt-scripts). After installing the boot script (‘https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jacklul/asuswrt-scripts/master/scripts/scripts-startup.sh’), when I check the value of “nvram get script_usbmount”, I notice that...

    Hi again, Thank you for your response. I am going to try a 16 GB USB stick and a 2 GB swap file on it. I don't know if I will be able to apply all the settings detailed in the README from the repository, as some of the options described in it, do not exist on my router. Best,

    Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

    Hi there, I have an Asus 4g-AC86U router (quite similar to the Asus RT-AC86U in features). The router firmware is 3.0.0.4.382_41621. It is a firmware that has not been updated for a long time. With the goal of increasing my privacy, my intention is to reduce/remove the amount of ads flooding my...
