adblock blocks these domains:
https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
https://adaway.org/hosts.txt

but youtube doesn't block it.

You can try adblock package from OpenWrt, but you really need a lot of RAM and manual configuration for this package.

You can't block YouTube ads using router based adblocking. Use a browser based solution.

Today I try to use over 30K blocklist, the file after downloaded is over 800KB but a funny thing is my free storage before installing adblock plugin is just 400KB.
So, what I'm curious about is how the free storage is calculated ?
How come my limited storage can handle doubled size file and still have 172KB free ??? so strange.



Oh I also try to change the script to use dnsmasq instead of hosts. It perform good. It now block all child/subdomain of blocked list, saves much trouble. (with hosts file it only block the listed domain but not it's child/subdomain). However is there any disadvantage of using dnsmasq instead of hosts file??

I installed Adblock plugin on my V1.12.0 WRT3200 but it's not working. It appears that the block list isn't updated.

What's the fix? Do I have to install V1.13?

If I do this is there a way to re-install my static IP table? I have about 70 devices and don't want to re-enter by hand.

I'm very much a newb so updating scripts isn't something I currently know how to do...

Thanks!

ah... yes.. I saw those posts

Trouble is I don't know how/ where to update this. I would happily take a brief tutorial if you're willing.

My last programming was with Fortran ~25+ years ago in college

I'm using a Mac if that makes any difference in how to update the files.
