WRT1043nd v2 unable to DNS Adblock

Post by bigtesta »

Hi All,
Amazing software, thanks to everyone that has worked on/supported it !

I'm running 1.6.2 on my WRT1043ND v2 and I can't get the DNS Adblock plugin to work. I added the source, refreshed the list and when I press install and wait, nothing happens - No checkmark in "installed" nothing in the menu. I installed a source I found for version 1.04 of the DNS Adblock and the same thing happens.

Do you have any advice what to do next ?

I know this router is well understood and supported, but a search didn't turn up anything.

Unless things have changed since back when it was first released, I was never able to get it running on 1.6.X and had to upgrade my router to a newer Gargoyle version to get Adblock running.
QoS Tip: Don't complicate your QoS settings. Gargoyle evenly splits available bandwidth between active devices as needed. Just delete all your classification rules and leave only one normal service class and you're done. No more arguing over bandwidth.

I think so! Memory tells me that up to version 1.0.3 works in 1.8.1.
If you intend to use DynamicDNS, let me know so I can give you instructions on applying the patches for 1.0.4. If not then it's not important.
