Hi there,
I posted this question in the "Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available" thread, but I think it got lost in the noise so I'm posting a separate thread.
I updated from Stock to B5 yesterday, did a factory reset / initialize all before configuring it by hand. Everything is running fine but I've noticed something odd...
I run PiHole and I'm seeing lots of DNS requests for the hostname "162.62.57.325" (Note - not a valid IPaddr). They seem to come in batches of 25 every 10 minutes or so. PiHole is returning NXDOMAIN.
Before the update I think it used to regularly try "dns.msftncsi.com", but these have now stopped.
Nothing else has changed on my network, just the update from Stock FW to Merlin 386.1B5.
Any ideas what's going on?
