Adguard home router install#
I managed to install it without any issues and run the admin dashboard but that was about it. I first tried the Docker option by using the official Docker image.

The answer was simple: blocking ads and trackers! If you had gifted me this 10 years ago, I would have built a Teamspeak or Mumble server so my friends and I could talk while playing Counter Strike : Source but today, in 2022, I wanted to build something that could have an impact on my daily life. Setting up the Raspberry Pi was super easy as the Raspbian OS was already pre-installed on the SD Card so the first real challenge was to find a project. I remembered the new version of the Pi suffered from heat issues (that later got partially fixed by a software update) when it came out so I also ordered a fanless cooling case (the Armor Case Passive Cooling) along with the SD Card, power adapter, HDMI, and Ethernet cable. I’m not sure why I didn’t do it right away but ultimately I felt like it wasn’t the right time back then while we all had to deal with a lot of uncertainty.

A few weeks ago, I decided to finally order the different cables I needed to use the Raspberry Pi 4 my partner gifted me right before the pandemic.
