In the process of trying to set up DNS over HTTPS I have run into an issue with it switched on in an app (FIREFOX). I presume this is because requests are now encrypted and Duma OS can now not read the requests? but having dns over https on in firefox comletely bypasses Duma Adblocker meaning I can now no longer block specific domains which was a feature I really liked. So now I'm looking at setting up adguard on a device which is a real shame (adding another point of failure). I wish that duma os natively did DNS over TLS and DNS over HTTPS . I see a request was made about 4 years ago on the forums.

I'm not sure of the official way , but can tell you how I found a semi satisfactory cfg.With the caveat that really you should get an r3 to have 1gb all throuput all the time. On the qos page I use bandwidth allocation with devices with download/upload share excess both ticked. Turn on congestion set to apply ALWAYS then visit a bufferbloat site such as https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat then lower your download upload speed (I'm on 1 gig download as well but only 100 meg up) by an arbitary number at a time say 50-100meg and retest for bufferbloat (you might need to reload the page). Till you get bufferbloat very low . Once you have found that optimum number for me it was 450 down 75 up , change the congestion control to AUTO ENABLE. That way this throttling of your network only happens when you are gaming and when you are not you get the full benefit of your network speeds. IF you retest bufferbloat with AUTO ENABLE on you will probably get a bad result if someone is not gaming on your network at that moment as it will let your full speeds through so dont let that confuse. Hence me saying find the optimum value with congestion control set to ALWAYS then switch to AUTO ENABLE once found. If you had an r3 we could have congestion control set to ALWAYS.

I'm now wishing there was a proper access point mode for the R2 that would probably make me go for the r3 then. Could then put the R2 to use , the idea of it just being a spare doesnt really appeal.

@IrishNomad Online offline has seemed accurate from my experience ..... yes you can name the devices and if you give them a fixed ip it should be fine. I in truth finder it easier to manage from the AP in general though .

@IrishNomad It seems to identify some but not others ,so I actually think its more an issue with how the device broadcasts and the access point also identifies rather than the router. They are all there just not all correctly named.This is using ubiquiti U6-LR. @Netduma Fraser thanks for your earlier reply !

Sorry if I have missed the info elsewhere but what can the r3 handle in comparison to the r2 in terms of pps (packets per second) and qos up/down. I'm not actually interested at all in terms of the new wifi capabilities as I have access points for that. So really just trying to see the net benefits of the new r3 for me over the current r2 bar getting duma os 4 earlier. Thanks in advance
