The log says there is a bad block, that could be the problem.

Hi thanks for your work! quick question - on uninstall does it

a. Reset the IP address range (it seemed to for me)?
b. Reset the AiCloud Access from 9443 back to 443? (it did not seem to for me)?

Thanks!

If you reset the router, is Diversion still running?
Start the Diversion UI, then enter d and select Re-Install.
Also, have you checked the FAQ?

Paste content of dnsmasq.conf. Use sf in Diversion to show the file.

You can't, as they use a different file syntax. Diversion uses hosts files only. uBlock supports several formats, but they can't be used in Diversion (unless one of the lists is available in hosts file format). See the FAQ and the Blocking file/Hosts file section here: https://diversion.ch/diversion/use/blocking-file-hosts-files.html

Turn logging l on then use f, 1, to see if any domains are blocked (red). Browse some websites while doing that.

So, ad-blocking is working, just some ads get through? That's an entirely different thing than your original "does not work".

To block all ads from www.googleadservices.com or googleads.g.doubleclick.net you need to add them to the blacklist in el.

sahilg009 · Oct 22, 2018

These sites are already in blacklist i have forced added them still not working
switched to largest ad block file same problem

Maybe you only added www.googleadservices.com and googleads.g.doubleclick.net but not googleadservices.com and www.googleads.g.doubleclick.net

Domains with or without www can be entirely different sites.

Use f, 3. This only shows blocked domains. Then browse sites that have ads from them. They are blocked but maybe your browser needs the cache wiped.

sahilg009 · Oct 22, 2018

It says blocked www.googleadservices.com
yet browser still loads ads from https://www.googleadservices.com

yup flushed browser cache pc cache
