AdGuardHome AX88U Pro and Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta AGH problem

Why does AGH sucks?
The custom script for running it on Merlin is not adapted to the latest firmware. AGH itself may be more flexible than Diversion, but if AGH won’t run properly, there’s no comparison.

Ahhhh so. Yes but I hope there comes an solution for AGH to work on the newer firmware. There is an solution, don't update to the newest 😉
 
I think someone should try to manually update the /opt/etc/AdGuardHome/AdGuardHome.yaml file to replace the bind_hosts IP (0.0.0.0) with 192.168.50.1, or whatever your router LAN IP is. See if it works then.
 
I am experiencing issues with Adguard Home, the DNS completely stops working, and as a result, devices on the network seem to lose internet connectivity—it’s clear why. On the previous stable version 3004.388.8_4 and earlier ones, everything worked properly. In the logs, I see the following error: "[fatal] starting dns server: configuring listeners: listening to tcp socket: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:53: bind: address already in use." and "dnsmasq[73704]: failed to create listening socket for..."

Using AMTM and attempting to access AG (Adguard Home), nothing loads—it’s frozen. I have to manually change the DNS in the WAN settings to a custom one (1.1.1.1) and only then I can quickly access the AG panel and uninstall it to restore DNS functionality.

I have three guest networks with VLANs 52, 53, and 54. What can I do to set up one DNS for all current and future guest networks so that everything works correctly, managed by Adguard Home?
I had a issue with the URL filter in firewall breaking when switching from adh to other DNS. Agh seems buggy. Try disabling URL filter for giggles, even if no entries.

Also think of changing from Asus/agh to gl-inet/bark for similar controls. Thoughts?
 
Anyone brave enough, you are welcome to test out the latest fix for this issue. I haven't released it yet because I have not had time to test it myself. I am traveling for work still, they extended my contract out until October. But enough of my life, sorry for the delays. Here is the one liner. Please give it ago, and see if it works.

Diversion is a no-brainer compared to the broken voodoo needed to get AGH to run, even when it worked. Both are script-based and one of them sucks rocks right now.
Yea I agree, one does not need a brain to use Diversion. This community is fortunate to have such a wonderful developer- @thelonelycoder , who was able to code in such away that everyone's ad-blocking needs are so simplified. We are just lucky if our scripts are popular enough to make it onto AMTM with the broken voodoo that you and I do.
