Per client blocking is clearly the biggest change. I am excited about this.
- barney54 7y agoWhat is the use case of per client blocking?
- beervirus 7y agoBlocking Facebook stuff on every device except my wife’s phone.
- Spivak 7y agoWhy not just tell your DHCP server to give her the regular DNS servers? Is this situation where she wants ad blocking but still wants to use FB?
- beervirus 7y agoYeah, ad blocking in general is what makes the web tolerable.
- slau 7y agoNot OP, but in my case, most of my VLANs can’t perform DNS requests to WAN. Only the pi.hole server is able to do that (and other devices in the DMZ). Reasoning: appliances like Chromecast/Apple TV/whatever will often ignore DHCP DNS settings if it doesn’t resolve, and they’ll reach out to 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 directly.
- A4ET8a8uTh0 7y agoI have several users and multiple devices in our household. FB is not allowed anywhere near my PC, but wife has to currently switch between piholed and not piholed wifi. It just allows for a much better control. Heavens know not everyone is like me.
