I had done this for several years but recently I’m running into the issue where my home router won’t let me specify a DNS server that is on the same subnet. I dont have multiple networks running at home so I can’t make a Pihole work anymore.
Comment on What interesting things can I do with my home WiFi network?

You can buy a raspberry pi and have Pihole setup on it. It’ll act as your local dns server and block any ad domains for the whole household.

You can set a static IP on the router, disable it’s DHCP, and have pihole manage DHCP with the routers static IP as the gateway

That’s a weird situation. Have you tried spinning up a second subnet on your modem?

Damn does this mean I have to buy another raspberry pi or can the one running octoprint serve double duty?

At least a Pi 4 can do both. Source: Did do exactly that.

Orange pi zero 3, 1.5GB. plenty for pihole and 30€ instead of 100€ or whatever bullshit RPI is charging these days.
