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)

    You want the truth? Setup OPNsense firewall on your network. Add EasyPrivacy, EasyList, AdGuard List and other blocklists to the Unbound DNS service on the OPNsense server.

    Then configure your DHCP to use the OPNsense router/firewall IP (eg. 192.168.1.1) as DNS server in DHCP provisioned computers on your LAN network.

    This is how I do it and it’s an enterprise setup, which works and scales really well.
