does it support setting custom DNSMasq settings?
Router doesn't use dnsmasq as dhcp server, but uses udhcpd.

If you want that to send a different dns server option, then ssh or telnet into the router and edit /etc/init.d/net-lan .
On line 32 change option dns $($CONFIG get lan_ipaddr) into option dns x.x.x.x
(where x.x.x.x is the IP address you want to send)

After a reboot it should then start issuing another DNS server.
(if you don't want to reboot, then also edit /tmp/udhcpd.conf and do a killall udhcpd && udhcpd /tmp/udhcpd.conf)

If you also plan on using OpenVPN server and have those also use your PiHole, then also edit etc/init.d/openvpn.
(look for push "dhcp-option DNS $lan_ipaddr")

Changes must be re-applied after a firmware update.
 
If these commands shows 0, NSS is active:
Code:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ecm/ecm_nss_ipv4/stop
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ecm/ecm_nss_ipv6/stop
Thank you. Stock already showing it’s active. Not sure why my performance is so poor. I guess I will test directly to the ONT and bypass the r7800.

The reason I need DNSMasq is to set the following:

dhcp-option=6,192.168.1.2
dhcp-option=tag:googlesdns1,option:dns-server,8.8.8.8
dhcp-host=FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF,set:googlesdns1,laptop

That allows me to bypass the Pi-Hole for my work laptop that is so locked down I can’t even change the DNS on it.

cat /sys/kernel/debug/ecm/ecm_nss_ipv6/stop
I'm running the R7800 in AP mode with Voxel 1.02.78SF and I got this:

Is it because in AP mode the hardware accelerator is not active or something else?

Tia.
