    DNS Filtering problem

    makes sense what you said shabbs, but what i want is best of both worlds - all clients to benefit from ad filtering of pi hole, but some clients then go to open DNS whilst others can go to google. Mot sure if that was clear in my question. I can't actually see how this can be achieved because...

    DNS Filtering problem

    So I am wanting to go one step further now and use Pi-Hole to implement ad-filtering. I understand how to do this globally - but is there a way to still have ALL clients directed to Pi Hole for the junk filtering but still allow the selected clients to use 8.8.8.8 as WAN DNS as opposed to...

    DNS Filtering problem

    I have attached some screenshots - would appreciate if you can tell me if I have this correct - many thanks . Also when I add device to the filter table it does not seem to kick in - do i need to reboot the client or router before it will take effect?

    DNS Filtering problem

    The routers DNS setting being the WAN fields? as opposed to the DHCP DNS? I assume that by specifying WAN DNS then all clients whether static or dynamic allocated will all effectively use the WAN field unless DNS filtering is applied

    DNS Filtering problem

    I think I should be putting Open DNS Primary and Secondary in WAN settings, leave fields blank for DNS under DHCP and just set the filter rules for clients that should bypass Open DNS by using Custom 1 (google 8.8.8.8). Is this correct? I do not host a DNS on my LAN

    DNS Filtering problem

    I need some guidance please on correctly setting up the following scenario: I want all clients on my LAN to use Open DNS by default with the exception of a couple of specified clients using DNSFilter on MAC address. I have set custom DNS 1 2 and 3 to 8.8.8.8 and set DNS Server 1 under DHCP...

    Asus N66U AI Mesh

    Can any one confirm that although RT-AC66U is listed in Merlin as no longer supported, the RT-AC66U B1 is , even though it is not mentioned in the supported list. Just want to make sure the B1 is a good choice for my MeshNode alongside Main Router AX88U, with a view to ongoing Merlin updates so...

    Asus N66U AI Mesh

    Any tips for settting these 2 up - Here is my thoughts Flash the AX88U with latest Merlin, then get it working as my main router. Next flash the AC-66U in isolation from the network with latest Merlin - and then I assume it needs to be told it will act as a Mesh Node. From there I imagine I...
