    Diversion dnsmasq.log file empty

    I resized my USB filesystems from 4 GB to 8 GB. It is like open heart surgery but Partition Wizard was successful.

    Curiosity question: Hybrid common SSID and per-frequency SSID?

    There is a problem with multiple WiFi 6 bands having the same SSID. WiFi clients end up parking and accumulating in the 2.4 GHz band. 2.4 GHz is best for long range. Phones (in a house) and IoT devices belong here. Although the range is longer, there is more interference from other access...

    Internal Asus router IP redirecting to asusrouter.com

    There is a setting under Administration --> System --> Basic Config called "Redirect webui access to www.asusrouter.com" which I have set to "No". DNS resolves both www.asusrouter.com and router.asus.com to the router's IP address. On port 80, the web GUI does not respond. This is as expected...

    Comcast wants me to upgrade

    The Comcast e-mails are no more sophisticated than this: Your plan is 1200 Mbps down Your modem is 1000 Mbps down Would it surprise me if you bought and provisioned a 1200 Mbps modem but experienced no performance increase? No, it would not. In my case of SB8200: Plan is 1000 Mbps down...

    IOS 17 update brings ads on Diversion

    If I use the follow function of Diversion, I see zero queries from my iPhone and 2 iPads but do see queries from my other devices Update: Even though I only installed Quad 9 DNS profile to iPhone, it is there on both iPads as if I had installed it to those two devices as well

    IOS 17 update brings ads on Diversion

    I experienced what the original poster experienced a few months ago on my iPhone after an upgrade. My best guess is that some sort DNS over https is enabled with no way to turn if off. My router is running Diversion with Pixelserv with Quad9 DNS. Type 65 blocking is enabled. The iPhone would...

    NAS NTP with minimum security risk

    Point NAS NTP client to AX86U. Run ntpMerlin chronyd on AX86U. Do not know about Europe, but from my location the best time is from the Apple and Cloudflare pools. If you are wealthy, get your own GPS sourced NTP server on your LAN, like the LeoNTP Time Server 1200.

    amtm Disk Check cannot fix the errors on USB flash

    Alternatively, configure the Entware filesystem to be checked almost every reboot automatically. Adjust the device name of this example if necessary. See settings tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 Change settings tune2fs -c 1 -i 1d /dev/sda1 Also, consider journaled ext4 next time.

    Solved RT-AX88U Is USB NVME SSD Supported?

    I have been using MiniTool Partition Wizard to work on my Entware external SSD from a Windows PC. The counter argument to this approach is that you should use the native tools on the router to avoid compatibility issues. A low level format tool would likely be provided by the disk vendor...
