    AX88U Sudden Death x 2

    I have an AP AC3100, i will swap the power on them. But why? Something weird with the power causing the device to brick/corrupt in some way? I guess not much else i can do but see if the issue follows the power supply to the AP. thanks

    AX88U Sudden Death x 2

    I managed to reset it. Just holding trhe WPS and then powering on did not work the first 5 times. Finally it did, now i will apply latest merlin and re confg and document for quick recovery later. But keen to know if anyone else has had this?

    AX88U Sudden Death x 2

    Hi there, i bought the AX88U in 2020, i have a 3100 as a wired WAP. The AX88 has an 8 port switch attached, so only 2 LAN cables connected, it runs Next DNS and IPv6 and thats about it. 6 months ago suddenly in the evening it just powered off and could not be turned on. I google every hardware...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Thanks for prompting me. I removed the pihole for now, if NextDNS works ongoing then great, if not i fail back to pihole. I guess i need to explore the best cache/proxy method now - eg stubby, dnscrypt-proxy ?

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Thanks. Yep MyPhiholev6Ip is my actual IP. I know what you're saying, i am not seeking complication. I already have pihole and Merlin DNSFilter doesn't work with IPV6 as i understand it, so this seems to be the easiest way? My main aim is to use IPV6 and have the fastest DNS i can have with ad...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Is there any chance some one could tell me where i am going wrong. Trying to give the IPv6 Address of Pihole to IPV6 DHCP clients. It works. My client gets the Ipv4 and v6 Pilhole addresses. my jffs script is #!/bin/sh CONFIG=$1 source /usr/sbin/helper.sh pc_replace...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    I decided to flush all logs and restart so i had a clean view. I restarted the router (AX88, 384.19) But now i can see the Host/IPv4 entry and it has A and AAAA dns lookups, but i can also see a Host/IPv6 entry only for some devices and many devices listed as unknown in the router that...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Thank you very much that worked quite nicely. I can see the hosts in RPI by name, and both ipv4 and v6 traffic against them. Nice and neat. I used stateless in my router too. But i figured i would have to use stateful and the hosts would be tabled somewhere...where is this being stored/read...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Does the DNS filter in router mode direct all DNS, including IPv6 and DoH to the DNS server LAN DHCP setting. Does the Custom DNS 1 in DNS Filter over ride the DNS Server specified in the LAN DHCP setting? Is there anywhere i can view all of the LAN IPv6 hosts? I've tried using stateless and...

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Hope this helps some one else. I used nano to create the dnsmasq.postconf file and it wouldnt work so i ran dos2unix dnsmasq.postconf and it worked.

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    Yep, but if you do not want the router to be your DNS server, eg running PIHOLE then it appears that the webgui doesnt support it, only a change to the conf file and this is fine...if only i could make the change effectively...i cant seem to get the postconf part right.

    Asuswrt-Merlin Serving IPV6 Router IP Instead of IPV6 DNS Server IP F/W 384.19

    I am on 384.19 and struggled with this issue all day. Your post helped me a lot. But i cant get these postconf scripts to work. Tried in /jffs/scripts and /jffs/config. Tried with naming dnsmasq.conf.add but it adds the whole script to the dnsmasq.conf file, so i add just the line...
