    Synology SRM Update 1.3.1-9346 Update 8

    I have found most of the QOS settings but I suppose my gripe is the L7 stuff is all Bandwith reservation. Every device has an Application and an associated bandwidth allocation, so there may be several applications per device and several Bandwith allocations. All the bandwidth allocations can...

    Synology SRM Update 1.3.1-9346 Update 8

    Did a manual update and all ok. Feels like I have jumped in the Tardis and gone back in time with purchasing the RT6600AX. its not as a mature offering as I thought. From synology they cant decide how to implement QOS a bit better. I have asked them to show me the Layer 7 QOS in operation...

    Difference between DNS Director "Adguard Adblock" and setting up an "Adguard Home" instance

    Adguard home in Docker running QUIC (DoQ) is my preferred way. However changing DNS providers is sometimes effective. https://link.adtidy.org/forward.html?action=dns_kb_providers&from=ui&app=home
