Hi

Do you know, why I do not have "Local DNS" under: DNSMasq
?

How can I get it there ?

Thanks.

-----Update----------

Obviously missed in orginal post:
Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r44715 std (11/03/20)
Router ASUS RT-AC87U

Reason for asking:
I want to block addons on router level following:
https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1176075
above topic is not blocking adds for me, and I am suspecting because I miss option "Local DNS" there.

We can only give optimal support if you share router model and build number.

See the forum guidelines with helpful pointers about how to research your router, where and what firmware to download, where and how to post and many other helpful tips:

Local DNS is a deprecated setting, so not present (and not necessary) in modern builds

Some write-ups are not updated with current information, most likey; local dns option was removed as it was no longer required for the 43099 release:

https://svn.dd-wrt.com/changeset/43080
https://svn.dd-wrt.com/changeset/43081

Adapt, improvise, overcome. But don't flash 43078 or older so you can follow a write-up and have other messes to deal with Cool Wink
