    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Thank you for that very useful clarification! I'll unblock the host and IP, and keep the DNS check setting in the hope that an update ends up fixing it. I now get that it seems an Asus issue. Appreciate you and @RMerlin looking into it (I see perhaps coincidentally that he pushed out a beta today).

    Okay so I guess I'll remove that list. Thanks.

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    [ ... ] I've been using those settings already, but in the last few days I noticed a new spate of queries for dns.msftncsi.com coming from my Windows machine, apparently getting routed by dnsmasq to 131.107.255.255. I recall RMerlin opining it's a bad idea to blocklist it because of the role it...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Hi, since update to v4.0.9 on my RT-AC87 running Merlin v384.10, all my dnsmasq queries are returning "dnsmasq[pid]: config error is REFUSED". The connections aren't blocked fortunately; routing appears to work. But I don't understand the context/meaning of the errmsg. I'm thinking it has to do...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    I've been getting a recurring error message whenever lists reload. It has evidently to do with the way a few entries, perhaps all of them coming from winhelp2002.mvps.org-hosts.txt, are getting parsed. I can manually remove these but they are always re-added, and look like this...

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    I tried redirecting source URLs to working ones but run into problems I've identified as: I-Blocklist changed schema at some point to require https for list retrieval and there is some hardcoded use of http with wget certificate-ignore, probably not really an issue because of how I'm trying to...

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    Yep, thought so. More work for me since utilization will appear to require configuring an IDS, which I absolutely would do if responsible for other users. Thanks very much @Adamm in any event!

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    I have fairly recent ipset save files available for restores as necessary (eg, after reboot) but if anyone knows whether there's an alternative script for peerguardian-like importation, or an impending rewrite of this one to deal with the loss of freely compatible lists from iblocklist, please...

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    I've looked at the ungzipped contents of files which partially download before a hang and have concluded there's a parsing issue. They are all ranges with hyphens, and not CIDRs. I realize this is an effectively dead thread but appreciate if anyone might confirm/deny that the blockfiles from...

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    My installation of the iblocklist-loader.sh started working again spontaneously so I'm presuming some WAN issue between me and iblocklist.com. Then today, it stopped again. I notice that whether I have cache set to Y or N, the script attempts to wget -q -O /jffs/ipset_lists/I-Blocklist*.gz. In...

    iblocklist.com generic ipset loader for ipset v6 and v4

    The script is taking hours to run today, with every gzipped download resulting in gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file iblocklist-loader.sh: Loaded I-Blocklist* blocklist with 1 entries I've made sure nothing's blocking my access to www. iblocklist.com. I'm not using a blacklist, I have just an...

    Step by Step: SNORT on AsusMerlin

    I very likely ought to have created a new thread, and will do so if this isn't fruitful. My thinking is that a followup to this old thread would easily reach someone knowledgeably able to respond. Is it possible that any WRT/ARMv7-compatible recent version of Snort might get developed? Has any...

    AB-Solution - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Yes, certainly, that works well. I've never noticed that the server is down when pixelserv is running - I get a valid ping response but AB-Solution script seems to hang anyhow. If there's anything else I can tell you so that it becomes clear why those hangs, let me know. (Another thing I've...
