Hi! I've configure Diversion on my RT-AC3100, using merlin firmware 386.5_2. I alway use Firefox and works great, I change employer I must use Google Chrome for work profile and Firefox in my personal profile. Using Google Chrome I see adds but using Firefox no. I can not found in Chrome any DNS configuration or something that allow to Chrome bypass Diversion to show me the adds. Some know what I need to configured in Google Chrome?
Thanks in advance

Don’t know if this helps?

 
Is pixelserv-tls installed?
Enter which pixelserv-tls into the terminal.
ps would be an available option in i if /opt/bin/pixelserv-tls is found.
I have that Pixelserv installed & running.
I saw ‘ps’ in amtm, ran it, all worked well.
Now ‘ps’ has disappeared from the amtm list.
Maybe I’m going crazy & imagining things!o_O

That appears to be the case too for @Makaveli
Iˋll check that tonight, thanks for reporting.

Same with me, I saw PS originally, ran it and after I ran it, it disappeared. But still works if I type it in
Same; however, I restored mine via nsru.

@Makaveli was right from the beginning. There was an instruction missing in amtm. I sacked the coder and asked the neighbors cat for help. She sat me down and had me fix it myself. Long story short, the minor fix is out, use u in amtm to update.
 
Diversion 4.3.1 is now available

What's new
- Adds option to block type 65 queries in tb using iptables.

Thanks for all the contributors in these threads - and surely elsewhere:

iOS 14 and newer, as well as a growing number of apps or devices use the type 65 query.
Dnsmasq currently has no option to suppress or specifically handle these types of queries and therefore circumvent Diversion ad-blocking.

How to update Diversion
Use u or the WebUI function to update to this latest version.

Awesome and long-awaited! Thank you!

How effective is the type 65 query blocking, and has anyone experienced side effects as a consequence of enabling this feature? (I know it's a new feature, so I mean those who manually ran the underlying iptables commands for the past few months).

I haven't seen any issues. Been using it for awhile just putting in the commands manually.

Thank you for updating Diversion!

I enabled it, and waiting for my family's screams as I beta test it on them... everything is still quiet on the homefront! :)

If you see type=65 in the logs then you should enable it. I haven’t see any issues from doing so
I've just enabled it because I have Apple devices on my network. I already give them more info than I'm comfortable with.
