Re: EdgeRouter X - Ad-blocking (content filtering) using GUI ?

i have decided to revert back to the standard "non-ad-blocking" status 

 

1. sudo chmod -x /config/user-data/update-adblock-dnsmasq.sh

2, checked crontab -e... but i couldn t find the dnsmasq line anymore 

3. sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart 

 

and i guess that i am now ad friendly Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
Man Very Happy

 

ps. i did that because :

a. i found out that a real estate website wasn't showing me the contact details any more (click here to see the complete phone number of the real estate agent = resulted in a blank space) 

i didn't want to discover the hard way that other websites are not functioning 100% (and having to add new exceptions to adblock-dnsmasq file every time)

b. i want to cut any unnnecessary load on the router... so i can enjoy using it for a long time at max speeds 

for example ip filter rules... drastically reduces the transfer speed (example : bottom specifications on https://routerboard.com/RB750Gr2 )
