I want to block ads and trackers on the whole home network. I’ve been using adblockers and trackers for years now; I currently have a Raspberry Pi. I was thinking of setting up Pi-Hole with AdGuard. Any other suggestions are welcome. (I can’t use a custom router, because my ISP doesn’t allow it)

    Pi-hole works great for me, but everyone else on the network that uses Google hates it because the entire first page is ads and they can’t click on them.

      For a mobile device / TV, sure.

      For a browser on a computer, uBlock or AdNauseum will fix that.

      I install some local adblocker to their devices and they don’t see those ads

      Yeah, PiHole is great if you live by yourself otherwise the entire household will have it out for you.

      Learned that lesson the hard way.

        Only Apple the filtering to your MAC addresses.

      I have one SSID with pihole (which I use), and one without. Works pretty well, if you’re ok with a VLAN-aware network.
