Thanks guys, appreciated!

Could someone let me know if this is supported on the AX86U? The old versions had model requirements, looking for this functionality but don't want to break something inadvertently :)

That would make sense too! Only took them over a year :rolleyes:

Hi All, So far after 386.4 update, no issues. Perhaps the change to DHCP solved it? - CHANGED: Switched to Asus's own dhcp hostname support. Existing dhcp_hostnames entries will be converted on first boot. Will post if there is any change or it breaks again.

Sorry for double post. I feel better now. If I reboot the pihole and try it again it breaks with the default config. Then works again when I listen past 1 hop. Thanks for the fast response and quick fix. Hopefully this thread helps someone in the future.

@eibgrad Hey, thanks for the response. Yes i can ping the pihole IP. I can get to the GUI via IP:port I also can verify that in the OVPN logs on the client it shows that the DNS server was pushed with the correct IP. I tested what you found on the DD-WRT forum and had interesting results. I am...

Hi all, Looking for some suggestions and ideas on what I may be missing on this configuration. I believe everything was fully functional on prior firmware, however have not tested the functionality in a bit. Environment: AX86U - DHCP Server provides internal IP of PiHole for DNS WAN DNS...

Hey there, I wouldn't say it's "FIXED" per se, but the frequency of the issues has drastically reduced. Generally all the mini's will drop off the network once a month, need a reset and be good to go for another month. DNS over TLS hasn't resolved it permanently for me as it has for @SenorClean...

Great suggestions and thoughts; I'd like to pass one piece back to you though that may have been missed from the beginning. (before I do them) If I put the AC66U (non b1) back into place. Everything works fine. Makes me think that the switch, the pihole, the everything else is fine; and...

I don't feel like it's very customized... Wired house - to a patch panel - goes into an unmanaged D-Link 24port switch ... Router plugged into that... along with a NAS that has a pihole docker container for DNS. Removed the pihole completely for testing - no change... So to me, its a bunch of...

Beta 5 - even worse - disconnects every few hours again.

My devices were running over 7 days with no issues - then all of a sudden all lost connectivity around the same time. Router doesn't report any issue other than the DHCP offer's again. It's been stable for 16 days on Merlin Beta 4. Sigh

So far I have been on the latest beta and have not (yet) had any disconnects, will report back if anything changes of course. I did notice initially on Beta4 they had problems, I power cycled all the minis and then they were fine since... On about 5 days or so now.

Ask be to escalated to the dev teams. They know about the issues - changing bandwidth and control channel settings really shouldn't have much of an impact in most environments and this type of tech. (if you're super saturated, possibly - from what I've seen it's minimal)

Thanks for the update @pixelplated - I h ave not yet done a new SSID completely, will add to my list - have a lot of devices, so going to need to do some planning >_< Will report back
