Pi-Hole 4.3.2 - Hackdot

One solution is to set up two separate wireless networks with separate VLANs where one uses the pihole for DNS and the other does not. Clients can temporarily switch to the ads network at will. It might not be possible unless you have a decently high-end router. I know DD-WRT or Ubiquiti Unifi gear can do this.

Yup, we do this. Works like a charm and makes it easy to configure from any client by just connecting to a new wireless network.

You don't need the VLAN, you can just put the two different wifi networks on different subnets or DNS config depending on your router and you're good to go.

(I do put IoT stuff on a guest VLAN though which can only see the gateway and nothing local in the network).

I did this not more than 2 months ago. Only time I connect to my other network is when I want to access my odroid xu4 on which I accidentally blocked the wrong subnet in iptables.
