User, why aren't you using Pi-Hole to block advertisements and trackers on your local network?

because i dont give a shit, fucking autist

I run dnsmasq as a caching DNS and DHCP server on my home server with this hosts list:
someonewhocares.org/hosts/
so pretty much the same idea

Google it. There's a way that it can be done in a jail.

>what is running pi hole on a computer i already have

>pi hole

I don't know if this is a stupid question but, does that cause more latency?

I play some competitive online games.

i'm assuming your time is filled with anime, pornhub, and otherwise useless activities. buy a rasp pi w zero for ~$10 poorfag if you're worried about overkill

I am using it, though.

>he doesn't just run it in a VM

Imagine being this much of a virtualization brainlet

It's the future dweeb, get to it.

>why aren't you using Pi-Hole
I am user. Best way to block calls home from those pesky streaming boxes.

because my router already does it

Can this be used as a secure local DNS?

Yeah It's running on my old netbook

Got mine running on a FreeNAS VM with router pointed as a default gateway. Imagine not having whole house ad blocking in 2019.

Doesn't pi hole leave a big ass hole where the ad used to be?

brainlet. do you not have other devices on your network?

But I am. I call it OpiHole.

no but it is useless for computer just use ublock + privacy badger

Anyone else use their pi as a node.js server? Been thinking about doing that for a slack bot im making

It may, depending on the stylesheets used.
For browsers that can, use uBlock as well, which will act first.

no. its useful for blocking windows doing its jew shit in the background and extremely helpful for phones smart tvs and other shit where you usually can't install ad blockers.

this, grindr is a very pleasant experience using a pihole

i do, on a 2011 hp netbook

> sacrifices ram, security and cpu cycles iinstead of using dedicated hardware.

>why aren’t you man-in-the-middleing yourself?

Like Oppai Hole?
Or did I get the wrong joke? lol

>RAM

Oh yeah boy I'm really missing that 128MB on my 32GB machine. It's not even an issue on 16GB.

>security
>he thinks VM escapes are an issue nowadays

>CPU cycles

Only if you're a corelet and it's not like it locks the host out of the core. You are much more likely to be limited by single thread performance than the sacrifice of some cycles on one thread of your 8 thread machine.

Does it have any benefits over running adblock on OpenWRT?

Most routers are fairly memory limited.
I also noticed that adblock on OpenWRT was unreliable, starting to let ads through after a few days.

How well would Pi Hole work on this with Armbian?

Attached: Screenshot_20190808-214421.png (1080x2246, 689K)

Probably okay. They suggest 512MB RAM minimum, but my memory usage on is usually around 20%, so it'll depend on your lists and anything else you're doing.

The real question is why are you looking at that particular OrangePi?

I can run the service on 3 networks, including wifi... Assuming that works?

I use a custom hosts file that redirects adds to link local. I've yet to find a more efficient way.

It would work... But you have three separate internet connections?

Fuck this junk

Because i don't need yet another device running 24/7 and causing DNS issues for everyone if it crashes

But what if I don't want to use cloudflare only as a DNS lookup server because there are domains missing from it or domains that remove themselves from it?

>fail at computing
>fail at computing

I used to, actually

That's lovely. Could make a case for it and attach it to the router.

It's not that simple...

Can't wait for Google to disable adblockers so I can travel back to 1998.

I am, it's running on my Debian Server at the moment. My Raspberyy Pi is being used as a LibreELEC device now. Pretty happy.
Not quite sure why events.gfe.nvidia.com isn't here since it usually gets spammed with retries.

But I am doing that

Also I have an openVPN server

>I keep my epic rgb gaming rig running 24/7 just to work as a DNS server

The pi has like no capabilities. It’s somewhwre between a calculator and a 2002 hp shitbox

Go back to Jow Forums

>tfw a gigabit nic costs $35
Fooled again

PiHole blocks the ads and any browser extension will reconfigure the page. If you just have the browser extension it will miss like 40% of the ads

Based tech gore

Unbased

Based

>I’m bad at networking and it’s not my fault!

>I’m bad at networking and it’s not my fault!
I did everything like I should have
Maybe the pi1 I was using just fucking sucks

A good Workman doesn’t blame his tools

>running all your traffic through a 100mbps network card

I don’t think all traffic goes through here. Just DNS. Maybe I don’t web browse as much as the usual person but I haven’t noticed a single millisecond difference in speed.

idiot

because i use PFblockerNG

My PFSense router does that faggot

I like how majority of the replies are people thinking you need a raspberry pi to run pi-hole
They should really name it something else

Draw me a network diagram.

I lowered the max cpu clock and changed the CPU governer to keep the power draw under 500mA, the max the router's USB port is rated for. If I run CPU burn on it now it can peak at 420mA, but usually stays around 360mA. It doesn't negatively affect Pihole at all.

>I don’t think all traffic goes through here. Just DNS.
You are correct.
Pihole is a DNS server, not a firewall.

I run the pi-hole docker on my media server (unRAID) and point my router back to the fixed IP.

It worked great until the damn plastic CPU mount on my media server's motherboard shattered, leaving the system in a continuous boot loop after it failed to POST. It crippled my home network.

It just had to happen when I was out of town for a month too.

Ensure you set the the second DNS on your router/gateway to something other than the pi-hole.

Imagine capitalizing forty as if its a large number of dollars.

I can't get it to block literally anything. Is there a guide made for idiots on this?

I have it running on pic related. It's only 128mb RAM and an ARMV5 cpu, but it's plenty for a pihole + VPN setup with it's gigabit NIC. It was only $9 which includes power adapter and network cables.

Attached: Pogoplug(1).jpg (600x469, 46K)

i did. adguard dns is just as good without the hassle

Pi-hole is already for idiots user. It’s the default “babby’s first networked device that isn’t a desktop PC”

Sorry, maybe you just did it wrong. Mine was up and running in literally 40 minutes. Maybe try installing Raspbian again and starting from scratch.

You actually need to set it as your DNS server on your coputers or in your router

>>tfw a gigabit nic costs $35
>Fooled again

How the hell do you not own a motherboard with a gigabit NIC? That has literally been a standard for the past decade.

Also
>needing a gigabit NIC for a FUCKING LOCAL DNS

How much fucking data does your retarded ass think a local DNS actually pushes? Or are you a mongoloid and thought it's a firewall? Not only that but the host OS bypasses the NIC and talks directly with the PiHole VM assuming it's on the same VLAN anyways.

>I keep my epic rgb gaming rig running 24/7 just to work as a DNS server
>what are power states

You know modern PCs eat very little power when it's not doing much right? There is no need to waste $1000+ worth of parts only briefly doing "gaming" when you could have it do various homelab things for a very little performance hit, if any at all. It's called maximizing asset utilization dumbass and it's why virtualization was invented in the first place.

I can't into regex and I already use ublock to remove jewgle domains

But OP, I am

How do you get a million domains on the blocklist?

this

i have a VM running unbound, pihole and openvpn server. 512 MB RAM and 5 GB disk on a physical 8 GB RAM and 1TB SSD machine. Runs smoothly using 100 MB RAM.

yes
docs.pi-hole.net/guides/unbound/

i do. i tried to get all time logs but it won't load, php-fpm craps out as the log file is like 135mb lmao pic related is for the last month (8 days or so).

yeah

setup dnscrypt-proxy github.com/jedisct1/dnscrypt-proxy (has a arm build ready) and use a different provider from here dnscrypt.info/public-servers. many offer no logging, and some have adblock built in if you want.

itchy.nl/raspberry-pi-3-with-openvpn-pihole-dnscrypt if you need a tutorial. scroll down to "Install and setup DNSCrypt" if you have pihole already setup.

now you have pihole, dns-over-https/tls and aren't using cloudflare (and can now parse archive.is)

retard, i use pihole and dnscrypt-proxy fine and can reboot it fine.

>PROFIT

No additional latency in games. It only adds an (incredibly small) delay at DNS lookup time, which isn't going to be going on in the middle of a game, as all address resolution took place when the connections were initialized.

Even if there are DNS lookups during the match, there won't be a any perceptible delay. I've been running pihole on my home network for years and it's never caused any lag.

my isp router doesn't let me change dns server

I'm too much of a brainlet to set it up for mobile ad blocking, should've tried a VPN instead of WireGuard.

Attached: fuckads.png (1244x424, 52K)

Cute !

Attached: qyzwc50n0qw21.jpg (1024x580, 49K)

WireGuard is a VPN user.
The easiest most idiot proof way to get VPN on your pi is to set up openvpn through pivpn. pivpn.io/

Even easier is to just use DNS66 on your phone, you can find it in fdroid.

Because I don't like piping my fast ethernet through a shitty 35 dollar meme machine?

It only handles dns requests you retard.

You'll be pleased to learn that Pihole is a DNS server, then.

>running another OS in a VM just to run dnsmasq
fucking what
do you fags not own a router?
openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/ad-blocking

Because it won't run on my windows os or android phone.

Which is fine if you have a good amount of RAM in your router.

don't need that much, while i did get a new one recently with 512M ram, i did adblocking just fine on my previous one from 2011 with 128M ram

Considerably better than the 64MB my router has, then.

I'm running pihole on a $5 pi zero

64M would do, though it might be a good idea to put a swap file on a usb drive if it has a usb port
on my router, it uses 1.1M on /tmp (ramdisk) for the sorted list, and dnsmasq itself uses 8.6M, so it doesn't need much while running, it's only the downloading and sorting part which needs a bit more memory
