Debug Session: AdBlock Not Working + Device Connectivity

Date: 2026-01-25 13:20
Status: IN PROGRESS


Initial Findings

1. AdGuardHome-Sync Container

  • Origin: 192.168.31.1:80 (MikroTik AdGuard)
  • Replica: 192.168.31.4:3000 (Unraid AdGuard)
  • Sync interval: Every 30 minutes
  • Status: Failing since 10:00 with "no route to host"

Error:

2026-01-25T10:00:01.349Z ERROR sync Error getting origin status
{"from": "192.168.31.1:80", "error": "dial tcp 192.168.31.1:80: connect: no route to host"}

2. AdGuard Filtering Configuration

  • Filters enabled: 1 (AdGuard DNS filter only)
  • AdAway blocklist: DISABLED
  • protection_enabled: true
  • filtering_enabled: true (global)
  • Multiple client profiles have filtering_enabled: false

3. Architecture Discovery

There are TWO AdGuard instances:

  1. MikroTik AdGuard - 192.168.31.1:80 (origin/master)
  2. Unraid AdGuard - 192.168.31.4:3000 (replica)

Sync copies config from MikroTik → Unraid

4. Current Issue: Devices Have No Internet

  • LG TV showing no connection
  • Likely cause: DNS changes not propagated to DHCP clients
  • Devices may have cached old DNS or DHCP lease hasn't renewed

To Investigate

  • Check MikroTik DHCP DNS settings
  • Check if MikroTik AdGuard is running (container on MikroTik?)
  • Verify DHCP leases are pushing correct DNS
  • Check if NAT rules are redirecting properly

Debug session paused - device connectivity issue reported

Debug Session 2 (13:55)

Findings

  • AdGuard IS receiving queries from clients (192.168.31.100, .134, .101, etc.)
  • AdGuard IS responding (Elapsed times logged)
  • MikroTik DNS working (resolve commands succeed)
  • Internet reachable from Unraid (ping google.com works)
  • Connectivity check URLs all return proper status codes
  • Masquerade rules have packet counts (traffic flowing)
  • No connectivity domains being blocked

Status

All server-side tests pass. Issue may be:

  1. Client-side caching of old DNS
  2. Device needs reconnect after all the changes
  3. Specific device issue

Recommendation

Have user disconnect/reconnect device to get fresh DHCP lease and DNS.
