ASUSWRT-Merlin Notes Raw

Installation
------------

1.  Downloaded the [original firmware just in
    case](http://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RTN66U/HelpDesk_Download/).
    Then logged into router and backed up config in "Administration" →
    "Restore/Save/Upload Setting".
2.  Got the enhanced firmware via [this
    page](http://www.lostrealm.ca/tower/node/79) (scroll to the bottom).
    Verified MD5.
3.  Updated with new firmware. Rebooted via GUI. All was well.

Enabled manual assignment on "LAN" - "DHCP Server" and added devices and
names. This wasn't working before. Yay.

[Dnsmasq](http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html)
--------------------------------------------------------

SSHed into router, created these files:

    /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add  
    /jffs/configs/hosts.dnsmasq

Added this to `dnsmasq.conf.add`:

    addn-hosts=/jffs/configs/hosts.dnsmasq

And whatever else to the hosts file. Restarted the service:

    ps | grep dnsmasq  
    kill -9   
    dnsmasq --log-async
