Bulk-edit blacklist
Hello all,
Is there a way to bulk add blacklist entries? I would like to add the entries from the ad blocking host files on GitHub (43000+). I tried editing the /etc/hosts via telnet but it gets overwritten after reach reboot.
Thank you

I am pretty sure, that these entries are stored in the NVRAM, just like everything that needs to survive a reboot. Have check the NVRAM for present entries - I am sure you could just create long list, that you feed into the Orbi's NVRAM, provided it has enough storage available.
