Hello! I'm not sure if this is the proper place to ask this, and if it isn't, I apologize.

I've seem to run into an issue where, using Kamoj's excellent addon, I get the error message "DNSCrypt v2 is not running, but is enabled" under DNSCrypt v2 Servers on my R7800. No problem. Searching through the boards, I tried doing the following to reset dnscrypt through telnet

Code:
nvram set dnscrypt2=0
nvram commit
reboot

#Then after reboot
nvram set dnscrypt2=1
nvram commit
reboot

After doing this, I then am no longer able to browse on the internet despite seeing all the LEDs properly lit up; I'd get the "Server not found" error message. The only way I'd be able to access the internet again is by disabling dnscrypt once more. Oddly enough, running the command /etc/init.d/dnscrypt-proxy-2 restart gives me the error that it does not exist when dnscrypt2 is enabled in nvram.

With this said, I imagine I messed up somewhere and would like to try and reinstall a fresh build or so of dnscrypt into my router. Reinstalling the latest firmware from Voxel didn't seem to help, nor did performing a factory reset.

If you made it this far, thank you for reading through this and for any help you can offer.

Try to check why it fails (from telnet/ssh):
Code:
cat /var/log/dnscrypt-proxy-2.log | more

Maybe wrong your own custom DNSCrypt server?

I did try that command and got... a nearly blank file. I attached a screenshot of it.

I do have the stock servers. Attached a screenshot of it as well! Thank you so much for the help thus far.
