HI everyone,
Im new to DDWRT, i just made the step to DDWRT i have a netgear router R8500 and it's working correctly, i do intend to implement adguard home on my network to have more control over my internet activity.
So could you please share with me any useful material to achieve that ideally a step by step tutorial on how Set up AdGuard home on DD_WRT itself or on USB.
Thanks for your time and help.
Mod note: Please see the following thread, this topic is now locked -kp69
I was thinking about a solution to implement Adguard but I'm not sure if it's gonna work :
1- Set up a virtual machine on an external hard drive;
2- install Adguard in the VM;
3- set up a local DNS using Adguard and make it work using a USB to Ethernet Adapter

y not just use Adguard IP on lets say directly to DNSmasq
just pick an IP and add it to advanced DNSmasq rules with those commands:
no-resolv
server=94.140.14.15
server=94.140.15.16
click (save&reboot)
I can see AdGuard default servers...but you can add your personal DNS IPs given by subscription i guess..(NextDNS has the same offer)
Default servers
AdGuard DNS will block ads and trackers.
IPv4:
94.140.14.14
94.140.15.15
IPv6:
2a10:50c0::ad1:ff
2a10:50c0::ad2:ff
Non-filtering servers
AdGuard DNS will not block ads, trackers, or any other DNS requests.
IPv4:
94.140.14.140
94.140.14.141
IPv6:
2a10:50c0::1:ff
2a10:50c0::2:ff
Family protection servers
AdGuard DNS will block ads, trackers, adult content, and enable Safe Search and Safe Mode, where possible.
IPv4:
94.140.14.15
94.140.15.16
IPv6:
2a10:50c0::bad1:ff
2a10:50c0::bad2:ff
If ADGuard supports DNS over https or tls you can simply even use SmartDNS or Stubby (for DNS over TLS)...for Stubby you need Entware...but SmartDNS is easy to use...over GUI...so no needs to install anything...or use external DNS... _________________ Atheros

check the new builds thread at broadcom section ..
last build is 50963 and it contains vital security updates so better use it..indeed
than if you have pi with adguard its easy to point to it, but you can use smartdns too
as it can do dns over https or tls towards adguard servers if those support it idk _________________ Atheros
