I don't have HBO Max. I see they have a 7 day free trial though. So may be I can help if you get stuck.

You can remove play.hbomax.com. The first domain listed will cover it. I did a search for ".com" and found numerous references.
Code: 
warnermediacdn.com
amazonaws.com

A search for ".net" come up with a few hits.
Code: 
go-mpulse.net
akamaihd.net

I've been thinking of creating a Wiki on GitHub for the various streaming services.

Great idea @Xentrk a known streaming working list with correct commands used
p.s. for users of nvidia shield tv i had to use torguard android tv app to get usa content to work on nflix with dedicated streaming ip, pain in the butt tbh as had x3mrouting setup and the for some reason my real location kept being leaked even with shieldtv services disabled...until i used the app

Hi @Xentrk

I've updated the router to 384.13_10. I installed the script following the link you gave me. I added that ipset to go over vpn and then deleted it

Thanks, I will patch it. It supposed to get removed after a restart of the VPN Client. It does if one is using the GUI option. I will look into it. It won't cause any issue. But to remove it, type:

Code: 
ip rule del prio 9995

That is one major issue I have with Nvidia Shield. If you have Nvidia, some of the local TV stations require you to turn on location services so they can present the local channel to you. But if you have a FireTV or Roku, they go by your IP address (aka VPN server location). CBS All Access is an example of one service that does this.

Version 2.2.0 (22 August, 2020)
The x3mRouting.sh script has been updated!

FIX for ASN Method!
Updated grep command option no longer supported. Error may result in empty save/restore files and IPSET lists.

dnsmasq Method with 'dnsmasq_file=' parameter

Rather than specifying the domain names in a list, you can specify a file location using the 'dnsmasq_file=' parameter. The format of the file is one top level domain name per line.

Code: 
domain1.com
domain2.com
domain3.com

@Xentrk thanks for this. im really interested in implementing this on my router.

what i have done so far:

created the domain file /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
Code: 
pandora.com
ifconfig.io
ipinfo.io
deserve.com
eltiempo.com

then ran x3mRouting ALL 1 aws1 dnsmasq_file=/jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
routing works ok!

i now see that dnsmasq.conf.add has the same domains than /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01 -why?
Code: 
ipset=/pandora.com/ifconfig.io/ipinfo.io/deserve.com/eltiempo.com/aws1

im curious about what to do if i want to add more domains to the domains file? do i need to run the script again or how do i update the route to include the new domains i add ? also, what do i do with the domains stored on dnsmasq.conf.add ?

thanks

If you make updates to the dnsmasq_file, you need to run x3mRouting again for the change to take affect. x3mRouting will update the entry in dnsmasq.conf.add.

The ipset entry in dnsmasq.conf.add is correct. It will mirror the domains you entered in the file. This post should answer your other questions. Need to be aware that removing the domain doesn't mean the IPv4 address was removed from the IPSET list in memory. I will research how to automate if possible. I appreciate any feedback on the new feature.

As much as i like the shield the lack of a good tv app for spoofing location may mean roku becomes a preferred choice

The FireTV provides the spoofing ability of the Roku and the ability to side load like the Nvidia or other android TVs.

so if i want to add more domains, can i do it by running:?
Code: 
x3mRouting ipset_name=aws1 del

###add new domains to /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01

x3mRouting ALL 1 aws1 dnsmasq_file=/jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01

an automatic process will be great but as of right now i cant think of what i need. ill give it some thinking. maybe....

prerequisites:
having an initial file /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
running x3mRouting ALL 1 aws1 dnsmasq_file=/jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01

1- i add/remove domains on /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
2- an automatic script like x3mRouting update aws1 that will re-read the domains file and update the ipset list and dnsmasq.conf.add

where does the script get the ipranges?

The source file used by x3mRouting is provided by Amazon at https://ip-ranges.amazonaws.com/ip-ranges.json.

Good discussion. After thinking this over, the following would be the best practice.

If you add domains to the file, you only need to rerun x3mRouting to update the entry in dnsmasq.conf.add. New domains will now be appended to the existing ipset list. No need to first specify the 'del' parm

If you remove domains from the file, you need to first run x3mRouting with the 'del' parm. This will delete the IPSET list and it's contents. Then, run x3mRouting specifying the 'dnsmasq_file' parm. dnsmasq will start populating the IPSET list anew. At 2AM, the new list will get saved to the save/restore file location in /opt/tmp by the cron job and will be used to restore the list at system boot.

Managed to get location spoofing working using floater it does wifi location spoof as well
 
@Xentrk as a question aside,

an issue that i encountered is that when uninstalling your script, the backup files will remain at /opt/tmp. and if i re-create a new routing rule with a new dnsmasq_file, the backup file will have higher priority than the newly created file. is this intended to be that way?

thanks

@Xentrk as a question aside, can i have several routing rules running to the same vpn client?
for example:

x3mRouting ALL 1 aws1 dnsmasq_file=/jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
x3mRouting ALL 1 uic asnum=AS6200

if this is possible, where are the AS6200 ip addresses stored?
also, can i change the location of the backup file which is currently saved at /opt/tmp ?

an issue that i encountered is that when uninstalling your script, the backup files will remain at /opt/tmp. and if i re-create a new routing rule with a new dnsmasq_file, the backup file will have higher priority than the newly created file. is this intended to be that way?

Not removing the save/restore file is done by design. Especially to accomdate the dnsnmasq and manual methods.

Let's say I created an IPSET list and have it routed to VPN Client 1 using the dnsmasq method. I now want to change it to VPN Client 2. I first remove the ipset list by specifying the 'del' parameter. The save/restore file is still in /opt/tmp but the IPSET list is now deleted. I then create the new rule to route to VPN Client 2. x3mRouting will see the restore file and load the IPSET list from the file.

For the manual method, one manually creates a file and uses an editor to enter the IPv4 addresses. The ipset list is loaded from this file. If x3mRouting deleted the file, I would have some upset users.

What I can do is add another option when specifying the 'del=' parm to the command that will remove the save/restore file.

Specify the save/restore file location using the 'dir=' parameter.
Code: 
 ['dir='save_restore_location] # if 'dir' not specified, defaults to /opt/tmp
Code: 
x3mRouting ALL 1 WIMIPCOM dir=/mnt/ASUS/mylists

Try

nslookup imgur.com

See if IPv address got added.
ipset -L aws1 | grep x.x.x.x

If IPv4 not found add it manuallly:

ipset add aws1 x.x.x.x
 
hello again @Xentrk

im still curious about if i can have several routing rules running to the same vpn client?
for example:

x3mRouting ALL 1 aws1 dnsmasq_file=/jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/aws_domains_01
x3mRouting ALL 1 uic asnum=AS6200

if this is possible, where are the AS6200 ip addresses stored?
 
I'm currently running the 384.19 version of selective routing set of scripts, method 3 (scripts only.)
Over the past few days I made some changes to IPsets, interfaces they're routed through etc. It all works very well, as it always did :)
However, I've seen on more than a couple of occasions that the cron jobs get wiped out with the exception of Diversion and the last IPset I edited (which show the 2:00 am update correctly.) Everything else is gone. For all the scripts I'm running under normal conditions there are ~30 jobs in the list at any given time.

Has anyone else seen this issue?
