Thank you so much!

Verifying at link above says I am connected to 1.1.1.1 (should it say 1.1.1.2?) However, testing https://malware.testcategory.com/ shows the test malware site is blocked.

Did I do it right?

Thank you all. Is there anything else wrong with my various settings?

pagead.l.google.com does not resolve, so I guess that is a good sign. As for the Google IPv6 DNS I have no idea why it's there (I didn't put it). I will remove it. Should I also completely disable IPv6 in the router or disable only some settings? Please see my current IPv6 page.

Here it is admin@RT-AC86U-6D30:/tmp/home/root# nslookup adwords.google.com 192.168.1.1 Server: 192.168.1.1 Address 1: 192.168.1.1 RT-AC86U-6D30. Name: adwords.google.com Address 1: 2607:f8b0:400e:c0d::71 pz-in-f113.1e100.net Address 2: 2607:f8b0:400e:c0d::65 pz-in-f101.1e100.net...

So are all of the settings in my router (enable DNS over TLS, DNSDirector set to router, etc.) redundant and useless? When I SSH to the router and run a test I still see domains of ad servers properly resolved. Is that an issue? admin@RT-AC86U-6D30:/tmp/home/root# nslookup ads.google.com...

I have installed Diversion on my Asus RT-AC86U, firmware: 386.14_2. The only way I can get ad blocking to work is if I turn off secure DNS in browser (Chrome/Edge on Windows 11 or Chrome/Safari on MacOS). Is this the only way to enable Diversion on a laptop, or is there a way to have both...
