You can only get rid of those "page not found" when you run pixelserv or something like it.
You can run pixelserv on a system that's capable of running perl.
there was idea to put pixelserv functionality on the router
can we has it please ?
Why are you guys blocking the adds? Has anyone seen the swimsuit adds on this forum? That's good stuff
where ?! where is it ?! ;-)
ok here is business model maybe idea.
business entity that scans thru all ads for malware trackware and allows only safe ones pass thru. And of course one would need dd-wrt firmware for that

Forgive me if this is a newbie question, if this script provides this great functionality shouldn't it be added to the 'access restriction' portion of the routers config with something as simple as a checkbox?
I'd love to use this but I am afraid to jinx how well the router is running now.
This would eliminate the need to have to add startup scripts and potentially muck something up.

Just a thought.

Being able to do something doesn't mean it needs to be added to the code. Personally, I hate code bloat. Bloating the source code and firmware is going increase its size and stability. Such functionality shouldn't be a core router's code and make its core functionality unstable: traffic routing.
The ability to customize and to run script is a wonderful thing and should be kept that way. Hacks and features should be added by whoever that wants this in the script section of the router, not in the core.

Understood. Fraters script is working perfectly on my router.
Although I'm trying to figure out how to append more sites I'd like to block into the /tmp/dlhosts file automagically when the router starts.

Although I have no control over it, I hope that the guys developing this continue down the modular route. Right now it’s somewhat in place, but could/should be refined further. http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/What_is_DD-WRT%3F#File_Versions even the Micro could have stuff stripped out of it. Maybe they will opt to go down that route at some point in the future and have all non-core functions become more like add-on, and allow us the newbie’s to go to a special page inside the router and download and install packages for those specific features you want.

Time to scour the forums for answers.
I don't really understand your problem. The code already does it on startup (you have to put it in commands -> save startup).
You can already have the file /jffs/hosts and it will be appended to /dlhosts _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

excellent script , works well on a wrtg54 v. 2.2
My question is with the first line rogue = , by having that in the script should it be returning a o.o.o.o ip instead of the 127.0.0.0 ip when something is denied?
The reason I ask is because it always comes back as the 127.0.0.0 ip (local) when i test it using telnet and pinging something like double click.

What would running this script do for me that using Adblock Plus in Firefox doesn't? Would this help in loading pages faster, by not trying to download banner ads, etc?
they compliment one another and with the script i don't need to fiddle with the hosts file on every system on line, just load it in the router and they all get to take advantage .

Is there a way to add additional addresses manually that are not included in the supplied host file through that link, or would that be better done on each individual computer on the network (though would be time consuming and not convenient)?
