A metered lte location would benefit from most restricted data possible. Question is how to basically stop all traffic except a few? Currently I have adguard on with a number of sites and about as large of a hosts file as I can without breaking it.
Suggestions online are DNS port and Pi-hole or allow specific IP and block rest.
Trying nextdns.
You need to use luci for this, navigate to network -> firewall -> traffic rules, add one like this.
Something like:
Result:
The ! is a special operator, meaning except, or false, but it cannot be applied on every field, it does also work on mac source addresses and dest addresses.
OK, let me try that and get back in a week. (leaving on a jet plane)
! is a near universal token in programming for not. Eg:
if [ ! "$(grep -m 1 '0 * * * * /usr/bin/wireguard_watchdog' /etc/crontabs/root)" = '0 * * * * /usr/bin/wireguard_watchdog # hourly' ]; then
printf '%s\n' '0 * * * * /usr/bin/wireguard_watchdog # hourly' >> /etc/crontabs/root
fi
This is true, but one would not know a UI accepts it.
Heh, agreed. I’ve learned not to expect much from a UI.
