    I could never get my pihole to remain stable over long periods of time. Multiple reinstalls, two different pis, always issues with the network dropping or requiring both the pi and connected devices to be rebooted. A pain in the neck for a reason I’m not immediately able to figure out.

      That’s really strange to hear, I’ve run it in on a pi zero, until it died, a 4b, and now on a pair of orange pi zero 2 I think they are, without any issues I didn’t directly cause by computing drunk.

      I’d give it another shot if you’re up for it, it’s worth it in my opinion. I’m also running wireguard on it, with clients on all our phones so we take that protection with us everywhere.

      Interesting, I basically set it and forget it and the only time I’ve ever had to interact with it again was to tweak the blacklist to block something new or allow something through

      It might be an issue with your particular cocktail of router/modem/isp/what have you - which is way harder to diagnose
