    Hello,

    New to pfsense. I have a beelink EQ12 N100 16GB ram 500GB SSD two 2.5Gb ports I installed the pfsense OS. I would like this to be my primary interface to the WAN and provide DHCP to my local LAN.

    My current setup is an ASUS AXE11000 router which gets its DNS from adguard running on a docker container. I use encrypted DNS from a few different sources and then have a bunch of filter lists along with DNS renaming for local DNS. Adguard is fairly simple to use looking to replicate the functionality.

    I run a plex server, nextcloud and vaultguard on a local server. These go through a reverse proxy on the server side

    I added pfblockerNG is there a cheatsheat or youtube video for this? Looking for how to add multiple encrpyted DNS sources. And then how to add my giant list of ad blocking. and then local DNS renaming.

      Set Unbound in forwarding mode and add the DoT server in General Settings.

      Adding custom lists can be done in pfBlocker in DNS-BL section. Though if it's a huge list I would want to add it as a URL that gets pulled in.

        Would this tutorial still be good?

        https://forum.netgate.com/topic/167964/pfsense-adguardhome-with-doq

        pfblockerNG looks interesting but the UI of adguard is so much simpler to use.

          It might, I've never tried it. But it's basically impossuble for me to recommend you download and run some 3rd party script on your firewall. So be sure you understand exactly what it does if you do.

            Understood. Was more looking to follow his process and I would download manually and install
