AdGuard Home is a free, open‑source DNS server that blocks ads, trackers, and malicious domains across an entire network. It supports modern DNS encryption protocols like DoH, DoT, and DoQ.
Use cases
- Block ads and trackers on all home devices by routing DNS queries through AdGuard Home.
- Filter malicious and phishing domains at the DNS level to protect every device on the network.
- Enable DNS‑over‑HTTPS/TLS/QUIC for encrypted, privacy‑preserving DNS resolution.
- Replace a router’s DNS with a self‑hosted ad‑blocking solution without installing client software.
- Reduce bandwidth usage by preventing ad content from being downloaded.
- Create custom blocklists and whitelist rules for fine‑grained network control.
When to choose
- You need a single point of control to block ads and trackers for all devices on your LAN.
- You want encrypted DNS (DoH/DoT/DoQ) without relying on third‑party services.
- You prefer an open‑source, self‑hosted solution that can be extended with custom blocklists.
When to avoid
- You require per‑application or per‑browser ad blocking rather than network‑wide filtering.
- Your environment does not allow running a dedicated DNS server (e.g., strict ISP DNS policies).
- You need advanced content filtering beyond DNS (e.g., deep packet inspection).
