KeeneticOS 3.8
What’s new?
Here are the themes we are developing right now.
New content filtering and ad-blocking options:
Choose filtering profiles from popular public DNS resolvers: AdGuard DNS, CleanBrowsing, Cloudflare DNS, Neustar UltraDNS Public, OpenDNS, Quad9, Yandex.DNS;
Mix and match filtering profiles from different service providers to your devices in one setup;
Add your custom DNS profiles and use them along with public DNS resolvers;
Assign default filtering profiles to network segments;
Try content filtering services from the NextDNS.
