I wish I'd been able to get the pihole to work as easily as it sounded. It looked cool. But it was incompatible with the router from the ISP I had at the time, and rather than also buy and setup a new router, I just packed it away. Now I have a new ISP with a different router, and I'm sure it's incompatible too.

But at least it only takes 30 seconds to install ublock origin, and no extra hardware.

Consider using NextDNS to help block ads on both individual devices and network-wide too.

You should really consider getting a proper router like Unifi or the like. It's a one time cost and it will save you from these issues no matter what ISP supplied crap you end up getting.

Just plug whatever ISP router directly into your own, more capable, router and your home network will look identical, no matter where you move to or how many times you change ISP.

That said, running Pi-hole on a Raspberry pi is a treat!

I used a EdgeRouter and it was amazing, though a little-hair raising as a complete rookie.

The Unifi line solves this, and while it has some rough edges, it is so great. 9/10.
