    Dual WAN Failover Script

    Hello Ranger, appreciate your script very much. It's allowed me to move back to the Asus from an ER-X that I had to start using just for the failover. I have been using your script for a couple of months now and am currently using the latest beta and it works very well, but have run across a...

    Unbound Rewrite Domain to local IP with Unbound_Manager Views?

    I have been trying to figure out how to rewrite/redirect a domain lookup to a local IP. I think I can do that with "views" in unbound manger but can't seem to make it work. This adds it as type refuse A:Option ==> views "name" domain.com redirect 192.168.1.xxx What am I doing wrong?

    DNS filter with fallback

    I recently started testing "AdGuard Home" running on a local always on macos server as a back up to unbound with adblocking running on a AC-86U used as an accesspoint. Not that I can tell much of a difference in real life, but it's actually so much faster than the Asus, that I switched it it to...

    Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

    I run my unbound on an ac-86u running as access point with the only other software running being connmon and have similar namebench results as abracadabra with unbound being the slowest average result. But if I rerun namebench several times in a row it speeds up significantly for a bit. But...

    Release [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 beta is now available

    Thanks for update. I too use an ethernet connected LTE modem and my experience was similar but havn't tried 384.19 yet. I think I will hold off again for awhile before testing a switch back to the Asus back to being my primary router instead of just an access point. I wonder how load balancing...

    Anybody notice or are there any indications that Dual Wan Failover could be or is fixed or improved in 384.19?

    Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

    I want to find out too!. I don't think it's a issue with Access point mode. I figured out that verteiltesysteme.net is a DNSsec testing web page that I tried while testing things. No clue why it's flooding the logs... I just tried 'rs nocache' to restart unbound and see if it clears it out...

    Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

    Using unbound with ad-block enabled on Access Point only ac-86U, everything seems to work fine until this error starts flooding the log and the cache hits drop steadily until I restart unbound: Jul 28 00:05:03 RT-AC86U-B3A0 unbound: [32465:0] error: SERVFAIL <sigfail.verteiltesysteme.net. A...

    Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

    I agree I prefer the all in one solution, and have been using Asus routers with Merlin's GREAT firmware for years now, but it is just not reliable anymore for our situation.. will definitely switch back if/when Asus every fixes the failover fallback for our LTE, which we have to have, now...

    Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

    Recently I finally gave up and switched my main router to a cheap edgerouter x from my RT-AC86u because even though fail-over worked enough, fall-back never worked and just trying to switch back causes many many headaches... So I am just using the 86u as an access point now until Asus fixes...

    Possible to Host Google Web Fonts on Router?

    Hi, Is there anyway to serve google web fonts locally from the router? Maybe like the way that absolution and pixelserve work, if I understand correctly, intercepting and replacing before they reach the browser? Or is this too tinfoil hatish? Thanks in advance.

    [Release] AB-Solution 3 - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Thanks for the help, looks like the dnsmask.postconf file had the wrong device name in it. Not sure how mine got changed from sda to sda1, but I just added the 1 to the name and everything started working. Thanks again!

    [Release] AB-Solution 3 - The Ad Blocking Solution

    Hello, Hope someone can help. I had a working AB-Solution for a long time including version 3 on a RT-AC68U running 380.64. I had to do a NVRAM reset to fix a minor issue and reset up everything from scratch now I am unable to get AB-Solution 3 working again. I get an error that says...

    No Internet Access from Router Itself in Router Mode

    Thanks for help. This is what nslookup returned: Server: 127.0.0.1 Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain nslookup: can't resolve 'www.google.com' I think /etc/resolv.conf looks ok here, but how do I tell if it is corrupt or not? tmp/etc# cat resolv.conf nameserver 127.0.0.1
