RBR850 frequently issuing DNS REFUSED responses
Had the RBK852 now for just over a month, and have an issue I'll open a support ticket for. Wondered though if others have been experiencing anything similar. Basically and since day 1 after put...
Good Luck. This issue is resolved by the beta thats available.
Something like this will do:
copy /usr/sbin/dnsmasq to /overlay/upper/usr/sbin/orbi-dnsmasq
make a file called dnsmasq in /overlay/upper/usr/sbin (this will hide the original dnsmasq from the running os) with the following lines:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir /tmp/dns
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /tmp/dns/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" >> /tmp/dns/resolv.conf
/usr/sbin/orbi-dnsmasq -h -n -c 0 -N -i br* -r /tmp/dns/resolv.conf -u root
Thank you for posting these instructions. I have been working with Netgear support but they jsut suggested I return the device to the store vs troubleshooting.
I enabled telnet on the Orib and connected via the Windows built in telnet client. When I try to run the first line I get an error saying "copy: not found"
root@RBR750:/tmp/dns#
root@RBR750:/tmp/dns# copy /usr/sbin/dnsmasq to /overlay/upper/usr/sbin/orbi-dns
masq
/bin/ash: copy: not found
Am I missing a step?
