Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

[SMS786]

I have on the Desktop. But the issue is occurring on both my iMacs, and the iPhone App, and the iPhone browser. So, I'm not sure if it would bd related to the cache?

Wouldn't hurt to clear all your devices' caches and give it a go. I feel that if the issue were Diversion related the pages wouldn't load at all, let alone parts of them.

Also, try accessing the page on your iPhone browser when you are not connected to your wifi and see how that goes.

When I swap to 4G on my iPhone the Reddit App works and I can access Reddit in the iOS Safari browser.

This hosts file

blocks Reddit, but I added every single address to the Whitelist.

Maybe you did not?
I've added every *redd* instance, exept non-reddit domains and ads.reddit.com to the whitelist and it works fine here.

This makes router based ad-blockers and firewalls much more important.
I predict a lot of market share gain for Firefox if Google really changes it's API.

@thelonelycoder, can you please add option "e" within the menu d->3? There are already options "1" for yes and "2" for no, but adding "e" would make the interface more consistent among different screens.

i.e. I use my iphone with Termius app, and within most of the menus I can use "e" as a back/exit option, but not on the Diversion update menu "d". Thing is, I choose "d"->"3" for to check for updates, then instead of using "e" to exit the menu (as there are no updates available), I need to choose "2" for to avoid a force update. The default keyboard on iphone show the letters, not the numbers, and means, I need to switch to numbers for choosing "2", but if option "e" would be there, then the workflow would be same as in the other menus, making navigation faster and more logical (at least for me)

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm trying to reinstall everything for my new router. I have a freshly formatted FAT32 32GB USB Drive. And I am currently trying format it to EXT4 using the router. However, when I try to unmount I receive this output:

admin@RT-AX88U-E390:/tmp/home/root# umount -f /tmp/mnt/RT-AX88U
umount: can't unmount /tmp/mnt/RT-AX88U: Device or resource busy

I'm not sure how to overcome this Device or resource busy issue.

Install and use AMTM by @thelonelycoder

 

[skeal]

Looks like you need to update AMTM to the new version.

Install and use AMTM by @thelonelycoder

There's nothing on the USB Drive. Its formatted to FAT32 .... I'm trying to format it to EXT4 and do a fresh install of everything.

 

[jsbeddow]

Yes, the newest version of amtm (1.6) has the tools built-in for formatting to various ext2,3,4 versions.

 

[skeal]

There's nothing on the USB Drive. Its formatted to FAT32 .... I'm trying to format it to EXT4 and do a fresh install of everything.

This is an interesting dilemma. I don't think this was considered when integrating the format ability in AMTM. If you try to install AMTM and the drive is not formatted to ext* it should use it's format ability to carry on with the install. What do you think @thelonelycoder ?
Edit: A person just needs to install AMTM and use it's abilities to format this drive.

Isn't AMTM installed directly to /jffs/scripts/? I don't believe that an EXTx formatted drive is necessary for its initial installation.

Bingo you are right sir!!!!

Okay, I'll proceed to install AMTM. Thanks everyone

 

[Skeptical.me]

Bingo you are right sir!!!!

I just tried to use the inbuilt Format tool in AMTM and received the same error. hmm I've formatted a number of usb drives, and external drives, using the RT-AC86U (which I've sold) and have not had this issue:

_________________| INFO |__________________

 This (re)formats your plugged in USB storage
 device to ext* filesystem.  The process
 erases all data and partitions on the device.
 After formatting, the router will reboot.

 To be on the safe side, remove all other

Try this command

Check to see if it unmounted then install.

Try this command

umount -f /tmp/mnt/RT-AX88U
