You’re now blocking ads and trackers at the network level on your home network which is awesome but what if you want to use your Raspberry Pi with AgGuard Home as your DNS server on your smartphone when you’re not home? Or access the dashboard from your laptop while you’re away on a business trip? The AdGuard script told me my Raspberry Pi private IP address was 192.168.0.10 so I assigned it this one permanently. To do that, go to the admin page of your router (mine is 192.168.0.1) and head over to the page/section about Private LAN Setting or DHCP Reservation and assign an IP address to your Raspberry Pi. To avoid getting a new IP any time you reconnect your Raspberry Pi to the network, you’ll need to assign it a specific IP address. Whenever I connect a new device to the WiFi or via an ethernet cable, my router will assign to that device an IP address from a specific range. My Raspberry Pi is connected to my router with an ethernet cable but I know that my router has DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) enabled.

You’ll have to create a username and a password and then AdGuard will show you a page explaining what you need to do to configure your clients (smartphone, laptop, smart TV, etc) so they can use the Raspberry Pi and AGH as their DNS server.īefore doing that, you need to make sure that the IP address your router assigned to your Raspberry Pi will not change. Sudo /opt/AdGuardHome/AdGuardHome -s start|stop|restart|status|install|uninstallĬlick on the one you prefer and a new page will open on your browser to start configuring AdGuard Home. You can control the service status with the following commands:

#Adguard home docker install#

There are a few more things that must be configured before you can use it.Ĭlick on the link below and follow the Installation Wizard steps to finish setup.ĪdGuard Home is now available at the following addresses:ĩ 12:01:29 Go to 9 12:01:29 Go to ĩ 12:01:29 service: action install has been done successfully on unix-systemvĪdGuard Home is now installed and running

192.168.0.10 is the private address of my Raspberry Pi.ĪdGuard Home is successfully installed and will automatically start on boot.

::1 is also the loopback address (i.e.

It’s like an alias IP address that is used only by the computer you’re on.

127.0.0.1 is the localhost or loopback address in the IPV4 format.

The installation only takes a few seconds and in the last few lines of the script, you’ll see the private IP addresses on which you can access the AdGuard Home admin dashboard. Then, run the following curl command to start the automated install script.

#Adguard home docker update#

To use it, you first need to update your system by running the following commands: sudo apt update I decided to forget about Docker and just use the automated install script which is way easier.

#Adguard home docker driver#

I believe the issue was around the macvlan driver that you need to create as AgGuard Home is an application “which monitor network traffic and expect to be directly connected to the physical network” but I couldn’t find a solution. When I tried to set up my clients, I couldn’t manage to make them talk with the Raspberry Pi. 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. Snap Store (a graphical desktop application for discovering, installing and managing applications on Linux).Docker (to have the entire application and its dependencies in one container that is easy to deploy and maintain).Automated install (by running one command in your terminal).To install Adguard Home on your Raspberry Pi, you have three options: After comparing the two, I decided to use AdGuard Home because of its stability, modern look and list of features. On the Raspberry Pi, Pi-Hole and AdGuard Home are the most popular ad-blocking projects. 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.

#Adguard home docker software#

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.
