Gotcha - yeah I just realized that the issue was occurring the morning after it was set to update the blocklists.
The reasoning for this setup was to have certain devices on my network that still used my router for DNS (to take advantage o DNSSEC and DNS over TLS) but not have any...
same thing again today - diversion just stopped blocking ads, the log entries are the same... any ideas on what I can check to find out why it just quits working?
what specifically am I looking for? Rebooted router yesterday morning and ads weren't being blocked when I woke up today...
most recent log entry is:
Sep 14 05:20:04 Diversion: rotated dnsmasq log files
before that is:
Sep 14 02:00:09 Diversion: started second Dnsmasq instance for...
About a day or two after reboot on my RT-86u, Diversion stops blocking ads. Restarting diversion doesn't fix the issue, but rebooting the router does. This probably just started happening within the last month or so. How can I go about troubleshooting this?
this works if I want a device to bypass the router and have an outside DNS server pushed to the device. I still want all devices using the router for DNS for DNS over TLS, I just don't want any blocking for certain devices
I want to have certain devices on my network not have any ad blocking, but still be able to go though the router for DNS. I've setup the alternate blocking list, which initially I had to chose a preset blocking file. I then went in and removed the hosts list from the alternate blocking file...
that works, but I still want the devices to go through the router to use DNS over TLS... just don't want any blocking on some of them. can't figure out how to get this done
Diversion allows you to set up an alternate blocking list, but I don't see how to set up a second instance of Dnsmasq that doesn't use any blocking list (i.e., you can't select "none" for the alternate blocking list. Is there a way to have no blocking for the alternate Dnsmasq (Aside from maybe...
Thanks, this is what I was figuring.
Now for VPN access to the LAN, if I'm using the RT86 as my router and a VPN server, is there any way I can access devices on different VLANs? Or will my VPN server need to be behind the switch and have the router port forward to it?
I currently have an ASUS RT-86U that I love, but I have decided due to growing size and security reasons to setup VLANs on my network. I have purchased a layer 3 switch that I plan to setup to handle the VLANs and inter VLAN routing. I plan to connect the router and continue using it as my...
