Possible to change dnsmasq settings without Merlin

[legend]

I'm using official ASUS firmware, if I don't flash the firmware to Merlin version, is it possible to manually configure dnsmasq thru telnet?

Not really. You can edit the config files but a restart of dnsmasq will overwrite them.

When i was playing around with flexqos on stock firmware I used
script_usbmount=
to add changes during boot. Worked fine.

But depending on what you're doing it can be unreliable as any changes could easily be wiped out at a later point in time.

Really want this feature to be introduced into the official firmware.

email Asus and let them know. They won't see your comment here.

it is truly to install better version of AsusWRT - RMerlin.
you can ask Asus in 2014 for a 1y I was trying to get answer from them and I am still waiting
