No the command is not reversed, but both do different things, only one thing changed, that causes issues if you think, now if you reboot nvram cache from ram is flushed and thir vars are written to nvram flashspace. This will write parts of nvram to flash again.
Thus erasen nvram won't wipe everything unless you press the power button right afterwards. nvram erase clears nvram space, but does not zero out the flash from first to last block.
so which do you recommend? erase nvram + power cycle the rt?
I second that question...as most of us take your recommendations as golden rules
<Kong> Thank You for chiming in to help clear this up for us.....And for all that you do here

Just saying Thank You and I trust your file and what u say. "I" believe you have made a huge contribution to the forum and DD-WRT development in general.
BTW I cannot see any file if you posted it. Pretty sure I am logged in. Pretty sure the forum/website is fubar right now.
well thanks i guess, and correct, i didnt even provide my adblock file yet.. thats why i was so confused _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

[/quote]mrjcd, about your recent dns issue, if you use static dns, I found removing the isp entries in the resolver works out well for me, resolves faster and much stable, especially with ones that support dnssec. Mine is cloudflare with 2 entries 1.1.1.1/1.0.0.1 hence 2 in the startup script below:
You can do cat /tmp/resolv.dnsmasq to see if your isp entries are in there before and after startup script/reboot
p.s. believe it or not i used to have the exact same issue as well until i used that startup command. before that i also tried increasing the cache size to 1000 but didn't work so no longer needed[/quote]
Why would you needa script for this. Wouldnt just adding no-resolv and the DNS servers under Service accomplish the same thing?
I see a lot of people that still try to reset by running command:
erase nvram
this is not working anymore due to several changes in nvram handling.
Builds after 04/18 need:
nvram erase

clears config, you won't need erase nvram unless nvram paartition is corrupt.
Thank You for clearing this up...again....while I'm sure it has been clear as glass to you all along
If one really reads what you have written, the different commands/processes are now clear...er To me and hopefully the rest
Happy new year to you...and to all that contribute here _________________ Location 1

d
you mean putting these under dnsmasq option? that actually worked thanks! now i no longer need the static dns entries on the setup page
no-resolv
server=1.1.1.1
server=1.0.0.1
u know the point of multiple dns servers is for redundancy, right? do a trace route to 1.1.1.1, and 1.0.0.1, probably the same or extremely close, right? therefor, u need another dns provider, incase ur route breaks, how about openDNS? or google? or whatever u prefer. _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

Oh right totally forgot about that. So I can just add extra providers as below? I’m trying to avoid resolved isp dns it’s terrible here
never mind found that to use all with first response add all-servers option
I was on this build for 4-5 days and suddenly noticed very sluggish wi-fi on my device before I was getting ready for bed. I didn't think much of it and went to bed, but it was the same deal in the morning--very sluggish and/or impossible to load anything, including the R7500's web GUI. I toggled wi-fi on device, no difference. I rebooted the R7500 and while waiting I connected to my R7000 web GUI and everything was snappy. After coming back up, the R7500 was also snappy and internet browsing experience is back to normal.
I'm going back to R37945M for the moment, as I think that one was quite stable. _________________ Netgear R7500v2, DD-WRT v3.0-r37845M kongat

But do note that if you decide you actually want to query in order so that you actually favor Cloudflare, in addition to removing all-servers, you need to reverse the order of the server= lines, because DNSMasq actually queries the last one first, then the previous one, etc... turtles all the way back. _________________ 2x Netgear XR500 and 3x Linksys WRT1900ACSv2 on 53544: VLANs, VAPs, NAS, station mode, OpenVPN client (AirVPN), wireguard server (AirVPN port forward) and clients (AzireVPN, AirVPN, private), 3 DNSCrypt providers via VPN.
