I love how you used a visual explanation of a physical click and drag with pictures. You have no idea how helpful that is to understand what it is you’re explaining.
a 100% !! this is why my firends referred me to this link.
Even if you install this to something else (not Promax for example) this video is fantastic going through the build process. The one thing I would change is change the DNS servers on your router and not on each individual device. That way you get the benefits of PiHole across all your network devices (including smart TVs, IoT, Smart Fridges etc). Plus you only have to configure your DHCP server (usually the home router) with this.
this comment is gold!
Can anyone point me in the right direcon on how to change the DNS server on the router?
@@m4yh3m121 typically you would see it in the settings: internet section or dhcp section
Some DHCP servers on home routers don't support that
@@maskedredstonerproz They're cheap, so get one that does.
Super clear - very simple to understand and follow - I've had pihole setup for a while but not unbound as my all around DNS!
Thanks so much !
I love your calm and clear method of instructions.
I had set up something like this awhile back, but this was a great refresher. I didn't know about Unbound until now so thanks for that as well. You have a great presentation, friendly demeanor, clear directions. Thank you! Beard is good too... all l33t Linux guys have beards!
I would love to see a video that showcases this done so that any device that connects to the network no longer has ads!
This is something I really need to do on my home network. Thank you for the content!
very simple by cutting all crap . thank you . hope to see more updates for this
Could you explain why you enable DHCP instead of adding a static IP address when creating the proxmox container please.
This is all new to me, so would like to learn what things do.
Thank you
instead of going device by device you can just change the dns entry on your router dhcp settings.
This assumes you have access to the router, and that this setting is available to you. I have access to the router, but my ISP does not allow me to change DNS servers. What makes this worse ks their DNS servers have issues every couple of months, crippling the experience.
@@LaughingOrange well here ISP does allow you to change settings they even allow you to use third party routers
I’d recommend setting up a PFsense box as your router. Just let your IPS box server as bringing the internet in
Can also turn off the dhcp server on the router and use pihole as the dhcp server
he lit said that in the video
dietpi has a checkbox to click to auto install all of this in like 5 seconds. This is what should be recommended to users that are new.
Very helpful, followed your instructions and was able to get unbound setup with pihole (raspberry pi). Thank you!
Ok Hi @TechHut , Thanks for the video, I bit the bullet and made a Pi-Hole box today out of a old HP 4core 4gig computer that was given to me last year and I forgot I had it. Anyway I installed Ubuntu server and PiHole as per you video and it is amazing how much faster things load on my phone and TV and computers. Yes I hooked it up to my PfSence box and deployed it network wide. Yes the old HP is overkill and has hardly no load on it at all... Lol
Just wanted ya to know and keep the awesome videos coming!
🖖
LLAP
dear should I get a pi device?or a old dusty laptop would work & my router is ddlink 275u but I do have tplink 1200ac giga router
want to set pi hole & vpn if possible use pia
Seems eerily similar to what Craft Computing put out a few years back, but still a relevant how to. Thanks!
I did it today. It works well. Thanks for the video.
Damn, finally a tutorial on youtube regarding this subject that is 100% spot on! Tnx man!
Yes! please make a video covering a network wide setup.
Just an FYI, it's pretty trivial. Just pull up your router configuration page and set the dns there to your pihole ip address and it will do it for any device on the network.
Thank you! I went further and set my router to use that DNS under DHCP settings and BOOM!
I have done all this and then added pivpn on top so I get blocked ads everywhere I go.
TYhanks for this grate video. I have been wanting to do this for some time and now I have my pihole up and working.
11:47 😂 nice
Pi Hole was one of the best additions to my home network. Hardly any adds now :)
Adguard Hone is miles better than pihole
thank you you made it so easy to set this up, i knew how to setup pihole before but a recursive dns server that was new to me so thank you
Wish you made a comparative between with unbound and without unbound on the same website to see the difference between queries and blocked ads
he doesn't have the expertees for that :)
I made a script that does this, but it also allows you to make your own network! You can use it as a router as well. (I used it as a wifi to Ethernet because I don't have Ethernet ports in my house)
GREAT video. Super easy to follow along. You cadence and tone are perfect.
I was just thinking of putting the DNS server right on my RP4 so this was a very well timed video for me. Thanks!
dietpi has a script to auto install all of this in 1 checkbox
I didn't know that pihole had their own unbound settings page, and I just used the unbound docs to set mine up and it was a little frustrating at times, but it's all working perfectly.

I installed pihole/unbound through docker, and while the setup can get annoying if you aren't used to it, I can't recommend Docker enough for server stuff in general. It's been said on the channel a few times, of course, but Docker just makes deployment so much easier; just use the same text/config files for each deployment, and you don't even have to worry about it next time you inevitably reinstall your OS.
yeh been doing it that way for a few years, service as cattle is brilliant 😂
Setting up my new homeserver with CasaOS (basically a Docker manager GUI with a nice "appstore" that brings pre-configured docker images). How did you get unbound in the docker container for pihole?
hi, i have pihole running in a docker on my pi4, what do i need to do to install unbound? is that done within the pihole container itself or as a seperate container?
@@chenks76 it's been a bit since I set it up, but I basically found another docker container to run unbound, and made both containers run in network mode "host" (not actually required, you can do more complex networking if you put in the time to learn it). Then, you just point pihole to the address running unbound in that docker container.
@@adamsavard535 i'll need to look for a suitable image, i already have pihole running in network host mode
What I find works for me, is using the PIA DNS with their mace adblock already enabled. If you have a smart TV, you can use a vpn but if that doesn't work then pihole is your best bet.
9:16 I recently learned that the "paste error" relates to clipboard formatting for application, rather than plain text.
This might not apply in a proxmox console (not even sure whether proxmox supports ctrl+shift+V), but definitely where I’ve had it in a local terminal:
- only happens after a ctrl+V but once that’s happened, ctrl+shift+V also shows the formatting characters
- if you map ctrl+V in as something benign for the terminal, it prevents this so ctrl+shift+V always just send the raw text paste
Question, when installing pi hole you select to use dhcp. should it be set to static ip that a way you can set your home router dns to point to the pi-hole as the DNS server?
I do think so, I picked a static one :)
The problem I see is that every few minutes, a request is made and it shows that it does not come from the cache, but it is a new request to the upstream DNS server and there is a delay since Unbound is slower than a public DNS server.
Configure your cache-min-ttl and cache-max-ttl unbound will cache until he gets info the cache is stale then it recache
Adguard is a bit better no:?
Great video. Waiting on the video about how to setup on router!
Thank you for this tutorial. I love the content. I just discovered you and subscribed.
What happened to the extra information down below on the container template? I don't see it....
Great video. Installed without a flaw. Thanks
Im happy i found this video i am saving this for later
Awesome video, will be making some changes to my pihole for sure thanks.
Great guide, thanks a lot!
Oh, I expected this video to include instruction how to set up PiHole on the router as well. Can you please make a video about that too?
I love this video! Thank you!
Just subscribed to yours, thx!
Maybe a stupid question but I keep confusing myself... 1) can I use Pi-hole as a local DNS resolver (replacement for something like resolv.conf/systemd-resolved)? 2) Can I setup Pi-hole directly on my Ubuntu desktop and use it as a local DNS resolver or is it strictly for a "home network"? Also some context I really only use my phones hotspot to my PC. I would just setup Pi-hole on my phone but there is no root process available for my device.
Yes, you can use ir directly in your computer, but it's not recommended
@@Fhannycopia3 it wouldn't be on a daily driver im really just wanting it to run some tests myself.
@@diveallz1044 Have fun
I must be missing it (everyone is not an IT professional and I just started with linux) where do I down the ubuntu files (templates)? You said you would link it in the description and I can't find it...
I can't find it tooo. It's annoying!!! 😭
Awesome video - thank you
Nobara? Are you using that too? I switched to it on my gaming machine, and OMG it's amazing! Why have you not done a video on this yet!? I hope that's coming soon...
Your the man. Thank you!!
One crucial aspect of such setup - its security, has not been discussed in the video.
Installing a recursive DNS server is a security risk. DNS caching is another security risk on its own.
But let's get back to the first risk - having open / exposed recursive DNS is a risk - the user can become a point of DDoS attack without even knowing it.
If someone cannot ensure, that his recursive DNS server is NOT exposed (open) to the Internet - they should never use such server in the first place.
I would recommend non tech savvy people, who don't understand running a DNS server very well, to NOT use one.
People, who have privacy concerns should not use Google DNS either.
Why after installing pi hole now the calls made from the internet like if you work from home drop frequently?
did you set the ip address to static. I somehow missed that step
Tech Tip of the day. if you make a video on how to setup a DNS server, i don't think you need to explain what a freaking DNS server is.
Tech tip of the day: skip it
11:47 - haha
Absolute legend, thx!
please make or link a video on how to set it up on my router
Great video man
irmão muito obrigado por seu tutorial super fácil.
I got error: could not update local repository. Contact support
You didnt set your dns at router though ? This should be noted this setup is not encompassing the network.
Thank you for the contents that are contained. I enjoyed the subject that this video is about.
I use Portmaster for this, which is easier for one device and also is aware of different applications, so I can still use google services in one browser and and block it everywhere else.
The default dns is cloud flare but it is easy to switch.
I have been running pihole for 12 months and love it. But I wasn't aware unbound needed to be installed separately. I currently have 2.4 million web sites blocked and my statistics show 92.3% are cached. Pihole also blocks ads on a few television streaming services here in Australia.
PiHole operates a small, fast caching server for its own DNS operations, but relies on a recursive server upstream to do proper name resolution. Unbound is a fully recursive DNS resolver, and will search the full authoritative server hierarchy to resolve the name.
Just to be clear, this isn't a *great* idea, all in all. Hammering the full hierarchy to find a server listing might be OK if it's done at the backend and distribution levels, such as with CDN and ISP name servers, but if *everyone* fires requests at the authoritative servers, they would have been swamped decades ago. That's why caching servers were built into the standard from the outset. To use an outdated metaphor, it's like everyone calling directory assistance instead of looking in a nearby phone book.
@@watchm4ker Thanks for your reply. I did install Unbound after watching this video. I did have it installed 12 months ago in conjunction with pihole but felt it was redundant at the time. I've learnt my lesson and it is up and running. I do have a public facing name server too but it is for my various domains, pihole is just internal (television, laptops, phones etc). It is brilliant. Thanks again.
@@the-flatulator Ah. Wasn't sure on your level of knowledge, especially as it's a part that's usually kept hidden from most users.
@@watchm4ker My knowledge just gets me by. I'm a recent convert (24 months ago) from windows. I'm in the IT industry and have avoided linux/unix for 30 years. It's a big learning curve at 59 years old :)
@@the-flatulator Ouch. Worst part is, Microsoft was a huge player in the UNIX space, thanks to Xenix and early versions of NT. Then they tossed it all for their own special sauce, only to More or less reinvent the wheel for a bunch of *nix features and systems.
How can i use both Pi-hole and nginx-proxy-manager together as one DNS?
thanks
is there a ''best'' micro computuer tu do this? Raberry Pi vs Libre Computure vs others.
From the Raberry pie website they mention the PI Zero 2 I believe, but ive read on reddit that A libre Le Potato is better cause ethernet and power cable IIRC.
Hi Brandon. Thank you for your videos. I have learned a lot. Would you please do a video about Docker? I have read some about it, and am considering using it on my Pi 4, which currently is set up as a Jellyfin server. I'm considering adding Resilio Sync, but not sure as yet. Also, a video about Nginx pls, if possible.

Hi, I just installed Pihole. But now I am unable to watch Netflix. Can anyone help?
I didn't really understand the point of setting up unbound/making the dns "recursive". I have pihole installed and running on the network and I'm thinking of doing this but I don't get why I would. Can anyone explain?
It was mentioned in the video, might be worth a re-watch. Basically you're not sending your DNS lookups requests through to companies like Google, Cloudflare etc. You're keeping this information to yourself. You're protecting your data going to the DNS server (PiHole) originally, and this adds privacy for your send requests from the DNS server to Google, Cloudflare etc
@@CozaMcCoza but pihole does that already without Unbound, I'm trying to see what the point of using it is
Excellent thankyou.
great video. can you guide to the uRL where we can download the template - at 02:27 timestamp?

2. How does unbond protect you from Google & Cloudflare ???
Please excuse my ignorance, but where does unbound get it’s DNS list from? I guess I missed that part

What makes this different from just using browser extensions such as Adblock to block ads or even Brave browsers build-in ad blocker?
Also what is the point of creating a user and then giving them sudo anyway? sure if you were limiting their access, or their abilities, but giving them sudo just makes them the equivalent of Root? What is the value in this?
I am so confused ugh
I ran SmoothWall proxies ~20 years ago with Open DNS' paid service. My company didn't want to pay an annual fee, so I switched to their Family Shield free product along with a HOSTS file. Aside from not being a proxy, how is this so different?
This video doesn’t make much sense. Isn’t Oblivious DNS inherently designed to provides you with better privacy regardless of upstream resolver you would be using. With recursive resolver all your DNS queries are performed in a plain text so anyone (like your ISP, any malicious party) can snoop on them read all your DNS traffic? What’s private in that?
am android users i don't have pc or lap or even pi ... can i do all this !! i did everything with open dns put still i can't block some apps and ads on all phones in the network ... 🤕💔

Need help, trying to set this up and when you get to 6:46, I get an error saying. I have a red X in the check for existing repository in /etc/.pihole. Then at the bottom it says could not update local respository. Contact support.
Could someone help me get past this step?
hi, i have a question. Why on my unbound always showing SERVFAIL? is it any configuration change needed?
Do I just leave the router DNS set to my pihole IP or do any router settings need to be changed from a standard pihole setup to accommodate the Unbound install?
