Hello,
recently I bought a Netgear R7000 Router. I flashed the latest Firmware (dd-wrt.v24-K3_AC_ARM_STD.bin) and made a basic setup.

What i want to achieve:
- global Adblocker: Usually, I use ublock origin on my PCs. Instead of installing adblockers on all devices, i would like to use a global adblocker inside the router. I tried the built in Privoxy with automatic settings, but it didn't block ads on my phone. I also tried the approach on https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Ad_blocking , but it didn't work neither.

- VLAN with VPN with Killswitch: I want to have on wlan with enabled VPN to use Netflix. I found a way to use openVPN only for specific VLANs https://medium.com/@libertylocked/dd-wrt-tricks-dedicated-wireless-virtual-access-point-for-openvpn-the-easy-way-6399fca14916 . However, when I use Netflix, it blocks the content. I'm using NordVPN and followed this guide to install the VPN on my router https://nordvpn.com/de/tutorials/dd-wrt/openvpn-gui/
However, if I enable the Killswitch script, I dont't get internet access on my non VPN WLAN.

- optional: I want to use another VPN setting for my guest Wlan. Is this possible?

Thankyou!

I totally agree with @jxm, only the kill switch probably has a typo. I think it should be something like:
iptables -I FORWARD -s 192.168.1.80/28 -o `nvram get wan_iface` -j DROP

I must have some notes if you want to manually start a second openvpn client instances, but it really is a hell of a job manually configuring the client, the firewall rules and the PBR routing (I did it once and it was fun setting it up (yeah I know, weird definition of fun) .

If you really need a second VPN client running you might take a look at other software, I think Tomato has the ability to run multiple VPN client with the GUI (not sure and have never used it)
