The Pi-hole is a DNS sinkhole that protects your devices from unwanted content, without installing any client-side software. Once the installer has been run, you will need to configure your router to have DHCP clients use Pi-hole as their DNS server which ensures that all devices connecting to your network will have content blocked without any further intervention.

Easy-to-install: our versatile installer walks you through the process, and takes less than ten minutes
