NextDNS CLI on Asuswrt-Merlin
As the topic states, I've installed nextdns cli on asuswert-merlin running on RT-AC68U
The installation went very much smoothly.
I can see the DNS traffic showing on the nextdns webpanel. On the setup panel it states the device is using nextdns. All is great.
Now I went to check try some of the suggested nextdns commands.
nextdns log
This yielded an error that stated something around:
Exit State 1
For sure I know the number was "1"
The reason I can't remember nor copy and paste the error message is because I rebooted the router, I'd figured that perhaps a little jiggled of the handle would make the pieces fall in their right place.
After the router rebooted now any nextdns commands yields
-sh: nextdns: not found
Funny enough the router is still using nextdns as the dns resolver.
I can see the dns logs on the webpanel. It also shows that all dns queries are 100% encrypted.
What is happening?
What am I doing wrong; how can I get nextdns cli fully and properly working so that I may take full advantages of the features it promises?
Running the installation command again does recognize that nextdns cli is installed and yields the expected prompt
admin@host:/tmp/home/root# sh -c "$(curl -sL https://nextdns.io/install)"
INFO: OS: asuswrt-merlin
INFO: GOARCH: armv5

c) Configure NextDNS
r) Remove NextDNS
e) Exit
Choice (default=c):
I went ahead and checked thread suggested on the nextdns cli installation wikipage for asuswrt-merlin

Try using /jffs/nextdns/nextdns instead of use “nextdns”. It is likely that the command is no longer in the path.
