RBK50 voxel and stubby.yml

[viperbe]

Hello,
I am new to this forum so please forgive me if i seem very new.
Maybe i missed it but can someone tell me why the /etc/stubby/stubby.yml resets when i restart the router.

Is this where i have to plugin a usb and put it in a folder because /etc/ is read-only? Can someone please give me step by step to keep it with reboots.
I know this is a newb question but i couldnt find the answer clearly spelled out.

So i was setting up the stubby.yml for NextDNS and if i reboot it, it changes back to cloudflare but if i edit the config and restart stubby it loads fine.

Can someone please let me know what im doing wrong for the reboot part?

Please check the QuickStart.txt. There is a way to have your own version of /etc/stubby/stubby.yml (USB, overlay).

. . .
2. Overlay partition on USB.

Just see the contents of e.g. RBK50-V9.2.5.2.8SF-HW.zip containing ORBI RBK/RBS 50 firmware:

README.1st
RBR50-V9.2.5.2.8SF-HW.img
RBS50-V9.2.5.2.8SF-HW.img
QuickStart.txt

and QuickStart.txt is inside....

Good luck,
Voxel.

P.S.

README.1st it is better to browse it too.

So i went through it but nothing i do gets the /overlay/etc/stubby/stubby.yml

I have orbi v2 so no usb. When i reboot it still replaces the stubby.yml with default.

I have replaced it in /etc/stubby
i have replaced it in /tmp/overlay/etc/stubby/stubby.yml
I even tried /tmp/stubby

am i missing something?

ORBI v2 with no USB... There should be different solution. Check this part of QuickStart.txt

. . .
11. Custom script to run (for Orbi v2 owners, units w/o USB port).

You can create you own script to execute it after every reboot. Script should be placed
to /mnt/ntgr directory (internal nand) with name: rc.user. I.e.

/mnt/ntgr/rc.user
. . .

I.e. if you place your custom stubby.yml to /mnt/ntgr directory and your create your own custom /mnt/ntgr/rc.user, something like:

#!/bin/sh

cp -f /mnt/ntgr/stubby.yml /etc/stubby/
/etc/init.d/stubby stop
/etc/init.d/stubby start

this scheme should work...
