When you created account and setup server and client (router device) then copy 3 address tls, quic, https in your AdGuard Home upstream.

I adguard dns server you can turn on Parent control and you will see a lot of services.

AGDNS (paid version) can block different services, you can enable it without touching block lists.

Really? I did not know free account has limited things that paid version. I thought paid version only increase request per month.
Yes, I paid Adguard VPN then gave me free paid Adguard DNS

Also I can’t import filters, just manual to make a list.

I enabled parental control and added the no Google list, checked the manage services option and it still had YouTube unticked meaning it thinks its not going to block YouTube but in actuality it is.

26

Humble brag.

The no google list will contain YT - so it gets blocked.

I know and that is the issue, it won’t let me import a custom verson of no Google containing everything except YouTube.

29

True.

But as I said: Blocking Google but not YT isn’t useful anyway. Google can still track you. And there are plenty of tricks to get around DNS blocking.

So I would not trust in that anyway. :smile:

They would only have one vector to reach me and they can now get connections from the device and to the device, if I only allowed YT then system level stuff won’t get sneaked through YT.

If they do a call by IP your blocker won’t help.

I preordered the Flint 2 at around $129 due in part to this very reason. I barely even cross 40% CPU or RAM usage at any given time now.

That’s probably because the Flint 2 has 16x more RAM than the Flint AX lol.

No VPN yet, waiting for Adguard VPN with WireGuard.

It’s located within the user rules, when you create a new one.

Just found it now thanks! When it comes to forwarding from AGDNS to VPN DNS am I supposed to put the DNS IP in “allowed clients” on the access settings tab?

Just leave everything as it is and use AGH (without filtering) as a relay to AGDNS.

But won’t that still take the same amount of memory?
