Thanks for your help. You were right I could click the boxes with another browser.

I did factory reset Voxel:s fantastic firmware. I then installed your great addon.

Sadly the DNS-crypt v 2 still kills my internet. Cant visit sites.

Stubby seeems to work without problems, but I cant see that any adds disappears.

UPDATE! In my logfile for DNSCrypt

Can it be that you don't use the add-on for this,
since you have the wrong path to the blacklist?
It should be: [NOTICE] Loading the set of blocking rules from [/etc/blacklist.txt]

Also if using the add-on, which blacklists have you checked and how many addresses are filtered according to the add-on?

Example when checking AdAway and Submit, and then doing a refresh of the page:
Warning: Checking all providers will block very many addresses. Now filtering: 12488
AdAway (12488) - https://adaway.org

With Adway checked I like you filter 12488 adresses. After i checked in adway I once again tried dnscrypt v2 and it killed my internet.

About not using the addon I dont know. I have installed it and I see all of your services.

"System Version Information (....) FW:V1.0.4.37HF (Voxel). Kamoj Add-on:5.00."
