Description

You have the option to either run Pi-hole inside a container or directly install it on a supported operating system using our automated installer. This smart installer simplifies the process by asking you a series of questions before setting everything up for you automatically. After completing the installation, the next step is to configure your router’s DHCP settings to ensure that all clients utilize Pi-hole as their DNS server, or you can opt to manually set each device to connect to Pi-hole. To enhance your experience, consider pairing Pi-hole with a VPN, which allows for ad-blocking on mobile devices, thus conserving precious bandwidth on limited data plans. By centralizing ad-blocking with Pi-hole rather than relying on browser extensions or separate software installations for each computer, your entire network benefits from enhanced protection. This network-level blocking enables you to eliminate advertisements from various sources, including mobile applications and smart televisions, independent of the hardware or operating system in use. Since ads are blocked before they have the opportunity to download, you'll notice an improvement in network performance, resulting in a quicker and more efficient online experience. Moreover, this streamlined approach to ad-blocking can significantly reduce distractions and enhance user satisfaction across all devices connected to your network.

Description

Roadblock effectively prevents access to undesired web content, safeguards your privacy and security, enhances the speed at which webpages load, and minimizes data consumption while browsing. It features an extensive set of optimized rules designed to block and conceal unwanted web elements. With just a few clicks, users can activate the built-in rules to eliminate various types of advertisements, pop-ups, trackers, social media widgets, privacy notices, images, videos, scripts, and additional content. The Custom Rules feature allows for a robust method of creating, managing, and distributing personal rules tailored to individual needs. Users can implement custom rules to either block or permit specific websites or resources, obscure certain webpage components, remove cookies from web requests, and ensure that websites load securely through HTTPS connections. Additionally, Blocker Profiles offer an easy way to create and manage multiple profiles, each with unique settings. These profiles can be switched on as needed, utilized across different devices, shared with friends and family, and much more, making web browsing safer and more efficient.
