Hi,

There is an issue with the stable build (kernal 5.10) that causes the switch to act as a hub. I'm not sure that is the cause of the issue you are facing. It's probably down to the cpu?

I'd recommend giving the divested firmware a go. It's based on the snapshot versions so kernal 5.15. It may help. Always fun to play too :slight_smile:

Probably the web service just drops ping requests?

Hi,

thanks for your build and help, Ive just install your build with the patches, about divblock, do I have to do something to start it or config it?

root@OpenWrt:~# /etc/init.d/divblock status
active with no instances
1004

it should just work by default

if you logread | grep dnsmasq you should see along the lines of "loaded 630,000 overrides from file"

Hi,

your adblock/divblock works for all devices? On R7800 for exemple? Don't need to change anything?
also, about exception/permissions about aggressivity, Is it possible to add an ip, bypass an ip like 192.168.1.156 (my iptv)
?
thanks

@Peacefuleight
yes it should work on other devices just fine

I don't think you can disable the list just for one device, but there shouldn't be that many falsely blocked services.

Definitely interesting to me! :slight_smile:

My new Linksys E8450 has poor WiFi range compared to my old WRT-1900ACv2, and I've just been researching whether it's possible to connect them together wirelessly with WDS.

Yes.

Will it be merged? Kaloz hasn’t had any contributions in GitHub since 2016. And no
comment as yet.

Doubtful unless the author or someone else brings it here as a PR. Regardless, the current PR does not build against an OpenWrt pull today.

What does this do exactly? Had to comment it to make my guest wifi work.

Next I had to fix/undo a "network hardening" customization specifically in the Divested build configuration by commenting the interface=br-lan line in /etc/dnsmasq.conf (aka add a # before the line of code). Then I rebooted my network (MUST reboot to take effect).

dnsmasq should not listen on all interfaces, restrict it to br-lan.

Specific to this Community Build. Places interface=br-lan into /etc/dnsmasq.conf.
