Hey guys, I recently bought an orange pi zero 2 and, as the title suggests, I want to put an ad blocker on it. Those are the options. I also will put openvpn for external connection to my network. Does anyone have experience with them? What would you suggest?
Heey iam using pihole for a few years now i realy like that it works good with no problems so far. Even have unbound pared wirh it and for tunneling home i use wireguard never tried adguard or blocky
I’ve read about unbound but not knowledgeable enough to understand what it does. Could you king of eli5 it to me? Also, is wireguard better than openvpn?
Wireguard is very lightweight and it just works. No overly complex setup, tools, matching protocols, algorithms, versions, etc. It just works and it’s simple UDP traffic. It’s the first self hosted VPN that I actually love and that works on all my machines, mobiles, VMs with just a config file to fine tune what should go over the line.
This is the reason indeed its lightweight and installation and connecting other clients was easy with the qr code
Another vote for PiHole.
Also, thanks for turning me on to Unbound. Which Pi are you running those services on and how’s the performance?
Iam running it a raspberry 3b its doing fine we are with 3 ppl in house so there are not that many request
