(windows 10 pro)

I have spectrum internet and use their router because I don’t feel like dealing with replacing routers. Meaning the router config isn’t that in depth compared to having your 3rd party router. I use windscribe VPN, how do I get pihole to block all ads and allow me to windscribe on my devices?

Thanks

    Really all you gotta do, once pihole is running, is configure your router to use the pihole as your DNS server. The router should still be your DHCP server.

    I gotta look up which total I used.

    Also pihole isn’t super in depth when it comes to ad blocking. It’ll get most stuff, not you’ll still need to rely on your browser, for example, to do some more blocking with stuff like ublock. Like it won’t block YouTube ads, or most ads in streaming services.
