Looking for the best solution to block ads/trackers on my entire home network.
-
I install some local adblocker to their devices and they don’t see those ads
-
You can setup DHCP to give the DNS address to every device automatically. Even heavily locked down routers sometimes have the option, but I guess OP will have to try that out.
Pihole also has a built in DHCP, which you can enable and use as long as you disable the router one.
-
Only Apple the filtering to your MAC addresses.
-
For a mobile device / TV, sure.
For a browser on a computer, uBlock or AdNauseum will fix that.
-
I use PfSense and it's great
-
Do you have any lies to offer?
-
Do you want a lie? 2+3 = 8
-
Dunno, I found it pretty easy to set up different rules for different devices.
-
that's terrible, shame on you
-
Yes! PiHole does offer whitelisting profiles for devices however, Apple/IOS devices with their “Private Wi-Fi addresses” make it pain given how the Mac Addresses regularly rotate.
-
Oh wow - did not know that!
Bit of a weird choice, given that routers usually allow limiting connections to specific MAC addresses as a security feature. Everything's a trade-off, I guess...
