![]() ![]() I did see some interesting functions implemented within the pcWRT‘s OpenWRT-based software, but, most consumer routers do not have in place any sort of ad-blocking abilities – those that do, it’s usually done via third-party software which will ask for a monthly pay and I know that the package is usually beefier, as it most likely also includes Parental Controls (which a lot of the WiFi systems shamelessly stripped in the first place) but, if there would be a welcomed addition, it would be Intrusion Prevention and the Intrusion Detection Systems, which, unfortunately do not run properly on less powerful routers in the first place. When I say affordable, I mean only $5 which is a ridiculous sum for the type of applications that it can run and, considering that I’ve been trying to find a reliable and cheap hardware-based alternative to the extension-based ad blockers, the Raspberry Pi Zero is probably the best way to run Pi-Hole on your network. The Raspberry Pi Zero is currently the most affordable device from the Pi series and it was designed for both lighter projects where a Pi 3 B+ or Pi 4 would be severely underused and to help people in disadvantaged communities to build low-cost robots or to simply run a very basic OS. ![]()
