Adblock Plugin

[ple0max]

block.hosts exists and it is 145kb in size.

I don't have access to a working router at the moment.
It may be easier for you to re-enable the plugin and then show me the output of the logread. The install process logs itself.

logread | grep ADBLOCK

I installed version 1.9.0 on my TL-WDR3600, manually removed the 1.0.4 version of DNS Adblock and installed version 1.1, however, I'm unable to get it to work.
I see that I'm missing the block.hosts file. I tried enabling and re-enabling the plugin as previously suggested and it didn't work. It doesn't uninstall through the GUI, so I tried doing it manually, did every step except for "sh /plugin_root/usr/lib/opkg/info/plugin-gargoyle-adblock.postrm" because this package isn't present.
I've attached my logread as well, please help?

I apologize, but how do I execute the command "logread | grep ADBLOCK"?
Am I supposed to copy some lines from Gargoyle System Logs?

But I still see ads on the http://ads-blocker.com/testing/ but I don't see any ads on youtube. I also noticed that the ads on most sites are ads by google.

So, how can I be sure if it is working or not?

Also after enabling adblock plugin, I noticed that one of the entires of port 80 from "Individual Port Forwarding" has disappeared and even after clicking save I cannot add it back. I can't seem to add any NEW entries on "Individual Port Forwarding". BTW this was working before adding the adblock plugin.

Looks like it installed correctly.
Try navigating to

If it fails, it is working correctly.

Looks like it isn't working because you're using the TOR plugin.
Is this correct?

Due to the nature of TOR there is currently no way for them to work together (that i know of). I simply made it so that installing this plugin wouldn't break TOR.

It failed.
I don't think I was ever this happy when a web page failed to load.

Another thing is after enabling adblock plugin, I noticed that one of the entries from "Individual Port Forwarding" of port 80 has disappeared and even after clicking save I cannot add it back. I can't seem to add any new entries through "Individual Port Forwarding".

I will be grateful if you kindly mention how I can add new entries through "Individual Port Forwarding" again.

No idea, that is an unrelated issue. The two systems don't touch each other so i don't know what would cause that.

I just tried it and i can do it just fine.
