Boom! We're up again, thank you!
Now to test if I still have this disconnection/reconnection issue
EDIT: Yep, still causing issues if a device disconnects then reconnects. No DNS available to the device
Entware Pi-hole directly on the router? Yes!

That’s why you need the LAN IP on the DHCP page. Better will be to add the dhcp-option in postconf, but prove it works first.
Code:
sed "/^user=/a dhcp-option=lan,6,0.0.0.0" -i "$1"

Holy hell, you did it!
My man, thank you. This should definitely be added to the install guide. Out of interest, how would you go about adding it into the postconf?
EDIT: Just saw your edit with the code, awesome! Is there a reason one way is better than another in that regard?

0.0.0.0 means “whatever the interface IP currently is”, which is more flexible if you have multiple interfaces.

You're absolutely right, just looked into source code.
Thank you for this!
I've update the wiki page with this addition to the postconf script.

Maybe your usbmount script isn't starting the scripts? Check if /tmp/scripts_started existsHi there!

Thanks!
Verify that you see "Started service event monitoring" in syslog since last boot.
You should also see multiple log entries related to those scripts, if there is none then they are not being started.
Make sure the scripts are executable.
If you have multiple swap files there then something is mounting them already, if you attach a list of them then maybe we can track it down.
Try running setcap manually:
Code:
setcap -v CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE,CAP_NET_RAW,CAP_NET_ADMIN,CAP_SYS_NICE,CAP_IPC_LOCK,CAP_CHOWN+eip /opt/bin/pihole-FTL

It runs the postconf but dnsmasq.conf isn't getting modified... try running "dnsmasq.postconf /etc/dnsmasq.conf" manually and see if it modifies the file, or any error show up.
If it does modify the file the restart dnsmasq the run "custom-configs.sh run" and look for errors and check if it modifies the config.
Those swaps are created by firmware, I believe you can disable it via "nvram set apps_swap_enable=0", "nvram commit" and reboot. Alternatively you can probably change value of "apps_swap_size" to control the size of the swap created by the firmware.
About setcap, I guess if you want you could try executing that command but only with one capability per execution and see on which it errors out. So it would be "setcap -v CAP_NET_RAW+eip pihole-FTL" and so on...
Though Pi-hole probably requires all of those so it might be pointless.

That dnsmasq.postconf is checking if /opt/bin/pihole-FTL exists and something is listening on port 5053.
If the following returns nothing (or errors out) then this is the reason why it doesn't run.
Code:
netstat -tulnp | grep -F "127.0.0.1:5053"capitantrueno

Hi there!
/opt/bin/pihole-FTL exists:
But nothing is listening on port 5053:
Any suggestions? Or is it time to give up?
UPDATE:
I tried to start the PiHole service manually with `/opt/etc/init.d/S65pihole-FTL start`. I waited for 15 seconds, and after that, I restarted the dnsmasq service with `service restart_dnsmasq`. The last step was running again custom-configs with `/jffs/scripts/custom-configs.sh run`:
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now my dnsmasq.conf has your updates:
Is it mandatory to do something just to get everything started again on the next router's boot?
Thanks

# Modified by custom-configs scriptIs it mandatory to do something just to get everything started again on the next router's boot?

As long scripts-startup and entware starts on boot it should work, that's how I run it.

Updated the package with lots of changes from my dev branch.
Few dependencies were removed, so after the upgrade some packages will be marked as orphaned.
On new installs (pihole.toml missing) some stuff is already pre-configured:
- NTP features are disabled
- upstreams are set to Cloudflare (so the Pi-hole is functional out of the box)
- query logging to pihole.log is disabled
- and few other tweaks mentioned in the wiki
None of the changes to pihole.toml are forced and user can override those at any time after the install.
Also few additions to the postinst script:
- automatically set 'dns.interface' to first interface with private IP it finds
- inform if default ports are already taken, saying specifically that Pi-hole will not start
- show the generated random times for cron entries

Is PiHole version still the same? Or updated as well?

No Pi-hole version change.
Well few days in with everything working correctly and gotta say, it's VERY nice having pihole run natively on the router, one less device is always nice!
Has anyone tried using something like the app "Pihole client" on Android? I used it when I was running it on my RPi and it's basically an app that shows all the GUI stats. Used to work fine with the RPi but whenever I enter the details for the router address I either get a "Failed. Unknown Error" using port 5443 or "SSL Error. Check if the servers certificate is valid" using port 5080.
I've tried exporting/importing the cert but that doesn't seem to change anything, I'm sure I'm just an idiot but help would be appreciated
This is over https for reference but I'm sure that's obvious

Another project is to create PiHole's out of the old AC68u routers sitting around!
