Running AdGuard on my travelrouter GL-A1300 gives issues since the last firmware update to version 4.5.16. Adguard is running but not loading the default AdGuard DNS filter list. Count stays at “0”. Also adding a new blocklist, does not work. I get a time out error in the right corner. Resetting device to factory settings, enabling just AdGuard does not fix the issue. Still not able to update/add blocklists… ![Scherm­afbeelding 2024-04-26 om 14.19.58](https://forum-static.gl-inet.com/original/3X/9/8/98fae3bef2f9d22726de6e767e0c64551216c1d5.png) ---

No one? The GL-1300 is advertised with AdGuard, so it should run properly. Why I can’t even update the stock blocklist without issues? My MT-2500 has no issues at all. ---

Which is the latest one for these routers? I don’t see any updates pending. Running AdGuard v0.107.26 I’ve already updated the router to the latest firmware to 4.5.16 rel2. ---

For your convenience, I created a script to automate this process. Make sure to read and understand this post before you go on! Permanent feature I added the option to make all changes permanent. The script therefore only needs to be executed once, the effects are then permanent. Even across firmware updates. On the downside, it might create trouble when you flash a way older firmware… ---

I’m not that familiar with SSH. Just running commands I can, but this is something you created for GL.Inet? Or why are these routers not updated to the latest AdGuard version? ---

It’s just running, so it’s easier. Yep, I created that for the community because the firmware does not contain the newest AGH version. That’s because AGH is a 3rd-party-plugin and you would need to build the fw every time they push some update. I can’t promise that updating AGH will solve your problem, but it’s worth a try. ---

Okay thank you. Will support from GL.Inet main intact? I’m just curious if others who have also the GL-A1300, experience the same issues running AdGuard on their devices. ---

Yes it’s the same for me. Only when you use smaller blocklist, sometimes they update without issues. Would be nice if the GL.Inet staff joins the discussion to clear this up; - is the device powerful enough? - if yes, why does AdGuard stock config not work as designed then? - if no, why you advertise with AdGuard on this GL-A1300 if it’s not powerful enough? ---

Depend how many filters you want to block. My suggestion put upstream adguard dns server for free. Inside account you can add filters. > **[AdGuard DNS — ad-blocking DNS server](https://adguard-dns.io/en/welcome.html)** > > Create your ad-blocking DNS server that will protect your personal data, prevent tracking and allow you to control access to specific content on the Internet. If not enough space ram or storage, try restart router 🤔 ---

Uuuh… even the default blocklist doesn’t load… Adding more filters is step 2. You can also set 9.9.9.9 as default DNS and not use AdGuard on your router but that’s not a solution for the problem. ---

Yes, same solution right? You don’t run it local. Filtering takes place remotely, instead of local on the router. I understand that this can be a workaround, but I want to filter locally instead of sending all traffic remotely. You can also set your DNS server at home and setup a VPN connection from the travel router, but it should work on the GL-A1300 itself if you sell it out of the box with AdGuard… ---

Both I use. Upstream for Adguard DNS with basic available filters. Local added more list filters plus manual list filters.Total many many rules filtered 🕶 I don’t want use the public DNS resolver which website I visited. So I used private Adguard DNS resolver. ---
