(windows 10 pro)

I have spectrum internet and use their router because I don’t feel like dealing with replacing routers. Meaning the router config isn’t that in depth compared to having your 3rd party router. I use windscribe VPN, how do I get pihole to block all ads and allow me to windscribe on my devices?

Thanks

    Windscribe have a free product called control-d DNS which works like pihole but you don’t have to manage it yourself. Just set your router or PC DNS to point to the controld DNS server that suits what you want filtered.

        Free dns hosted elsewhere means they can see your every query and every site you visit. So you’ll be paying with your information. You could just set the DNS in your PC to the local IP of your Pi-hole. That way you won’t need to replace your router. It’ll only work for that single PC though.
