I have activated AdGuard Home on my Beryl, it has some upstream rules for *.my.custom
domains that request it from 192.168.8.1
(Beryl AX) configured static hostnames. I do this so I can move some devices between networks I control and the Beryl.
I changed the mode to Extender while I am on my in-laws, where the main router already resolves *.my.custom
domains and I noticed a problem: I could access some-device.my.custom
while connected to the main router WiFi, but not when connected to the Beryl AX.
After some debugging I found the problem, even when AdGuard Home Seems to be disabled and not accessible while con Extender mode:
It was actively trying to route *.my.custom
and failing because requests to 192.168.8.1:53
were timing out. I saw it on the System Logs.
I had to go back to router mode, disable AdGuard manually and going back into Extender Mode and then I was able to access some-device.my.custom
from both the main router WiFi and my Beryl's WiFi.
I searched the board but I was not able to find any similar problem. Is this an unknown bug?
