All clients showing as localhost in AdGuard Home

All clients are showing as localhost in AdGuard Home. I've had this issue before, but I can't remember what I did to fix it last time. Any ideas why this might be occurring again?

Enable „AdGuard Home handles Clients“

Hi admon,

Thank you for your response. It appears that the toggle is already on.

Any other ideas?

Try to disable the VPN feature and test it in AdGuard Home again.

Same situation here.

  • ADH toggle is on (even on/off/on doesn't change anything)
  • no VPN
  • no PARENTAL CONTRO

and only "localhost" on the list...

Ah, this is likely the cause. My VPN client is always running, as well as my server. I will just leave those running for now. Thank you!

If enable the 'AdGuard Home Handle Client Requests' option?

I have this option enabled and I only can see "localhost" on the list since the beggining.
I recently noticed this because on GL-B3000 the list is by IP

MT6000:
No VPN, no Parental Control. It's running only Adguard Home. I can see only "loalhost" on the list.

B3000:
VPN is on, no Parental Control, also Adguard Home is running. I can see the IP list.

Please let me know your MT6000 firmware version and ADG version.
I have not reproduced this situation in FW v4.6.2, ADG v0.107.46.

No VPN/Parental Control, Only ADG without 'AdGuard Home Handle Client Requests'

To be honest, since I'm using MT6000, I never saw the list of IPs.
It's always "localhost", no matter the version of the firmware and AGH.

Current Flint2 firmware: 4.6.2
Current AGH version: 0.107.52 (update from here)

Could you please convenience to reset the firmware to see if this situation still there?
My configuration is same to yours, but it can not reproduce.

I've the same issue, happened after upgrading to v4.6.2.

Another issue:
When I set some client to not use VPN, it can no longer perform nslookup...

I'm rapidly losing faith in GL-iNet's QA process... Every single update breaks some feature... I've delayed my update until now... and I got burnt once again when I push the update button.

This does not make sense tbh.

How do you run nslookup? Against local router or other servers?

Hi @admon

What I'm trying to do is to

  1. By Pass VPN by MAC Address
  2. On the machine that have VPN bypassed, I ran the following and all failed
nslookup google.com
nslookup google.com 192.168.8.1
nslookup google.com 1.1.1.1
nslookup google.com 9.9.9.9

My config: All clients showing as localhost in AdGuard Home - #12 by briar-spoon-celibate

Did you running dhcp in adguard home or gl router?
Show me your client list in adguard home > settings > client setting

I double check my dns setting in router was disable because I am running adguard home


@slesar I'm running DHCP on GL Router.

The clients you see here (Source ARP) are from BEFORE the upgrade. They're no longer appearing on AdGuard Home. They now only show up as 127.0.0.1

If I uncheck everything under #/dnsview, all DNS requests bypasses AdGuard Home.

Can you show me firewall in luci (network > firewall > port forward), thanks.


@slesar

Try uncheck 2 vpn dns and remove 2 unnames.
Looks like conflict dns port listens...
