Thanks, I'll give it a try.... MIC

Thanks. Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understandit it, if I have an active VPN connection, that would bypass dnsmasq.conf.add?

Hi—quick pre-install question: Is there a way to route selected domains to a “blackhole” (i.e., drop/null-route DNS or traffic) rather than sending them through an active VPN tunnel? I’d like to experiment with domain-level blocking to see whether it can reduce ads on streaming TV services...

Hi @cptnoblivious, Thank you very much for your insight. If it was what I was expecting, I understand the solution needs to be constantly monitored and updated. Do you have any experience with the use of AdGuard in combination with WireGuard? I do not even know if WireGuard connections are...

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice or real-world experience using AdGuard Home together with an Wireguard VPN connection to block or filter advertisements on streaming TV services from the UK, Canada, and Australia. Has anyone successfully managed this setup for this purpose? I understand...

Hi everyone, I’ve developed a working solution for application-based VPN routing. The basic idea is to detect which application is running on a target device, and then automatically set a VPN Director rule to route that device’s IP through the appropriate VPN. Let me break it down into...

Thanks...

Yes. It seems like the next cron timing is taken from the end time of the script, not the start... so if a script ends at 3.52.33 seconds, next one will run at at 3.54.00. That is my impression. Or maybe, as you say, this only happens if the script ends within the last 10 seconds window.

Thanks for the tip. Haven't tried yet (my objective is to run a command every three seconds, hence the loop)... But I found out that running the crontab command asynchronously seems to help. So I moved the schedule to two minutes and extended the loop to two minutes on my main script. cru a...

Hi. I am trying to run a crontab every minute, but is looks like the minimum time resolution I can get is actually TWO minutes. this happens on a RT-AX88U Pro with Firmware: 3006.102.5. crontab -l */1 * * * * sh /tmp/mnt/MicScripts/micscripts/time.sh #timing# the script code is very basic...

Hi. Is this the correct way to change a vpn director rule over ssh? Or is there some kind of internal Asus Merlin script/command I can use? Thank you. # Enable a rule named “Apple TV VPN” sed -i 's/<0>Apple TV VPN>/<1>Apple TV VPN>/g' /jffs/openvpn/vpndirector_rulelist # Then restart routing...

Thanks @dave14305 for your suggestions. If I understand it correctly you are checking two different variables to assess if "internet is up": wan${WANUNIT}_ipaddr and link_internet. I'll use a similar approach to be on the safe side. I appreciate your suggestions.

Hi, if wan-event $2 is set to “connected”, Do you think I can assume that wan0_realip_ip is set to the external IP, and that I can safely execute a curl Or should I still perform a double check on wan0_realip_ip and curl connectivity before using them?

Exactly. To recap for everybody, if you are experiencing a situation where: 1. You are running a WireGuard VPN (let's say wgc4) 2. You cannot connect to the internet from the router local interface via wgc4 (e.g. via a script or if you ssh into your local router) 3. The problem may be due to...

this is what i have now, but I need to do some clean-up I do not need them all: (mybe I got the syntax wrong on the web interface for vpndirector? I will try and invert it when I have time.) thanks. ip rule 0: from all lookup local 11300: from 10.13.128.229 lookup wgc3 11300...
