Ok, I see the problem. Your router needs an external DNS server for it’s internet setup.

You need to set DHCP to give your pihole server as the DNS to the computers INSIDE your network. It’s impossible for your router to use your LAN DNS server on the WAN port.

I’ve never heard of spectrum doing this. I think it’s an issue with your router. The steps you mentioned sound right, but I’m not seeing what you’re seeing. I usually try to look at the advanced mode, which might have more info.

You could contact Netgear tech support, or consult their manual. Have you made sure you’re on the latest firmware?

I’ve been using the beta on Android for about a week. It gets updates constantly, sometimes multiple times a day. Keeps getting better and better.

I recently moved from Linux mint to opensuse tumbleweed and I’ve been VERY happy. Super stable. Even through multiple dist-upgrades.

Historically I’ve used debian based distros on my home server. I recently switched to opensuse tumbleweed and Ive been very happy. It’s a rolling release, and I’ve found it more stable and easier to work with than linuxmint

I use caddy. Previously used traefik, but it’s more complicated than I needed.

Caddy can be set to use a single file with all your hosted subdomain listed.

The docker compose file lets me define all the variables in one file and link the configs to a folder next to the compose file. It lets me reinstall my core os, copy the Dockers folder, and bring them back up. All self contained.

I’ve been just using hard drives in my server computer running on my old gaming computer.

I recently switched my core os from linuxmint to opensuse tumbleweed. Ultimately the core os doesn’t matter much, it’s mostly personal interface differences. All my apps run on docker using docker-compose. I use caddy as my reverse proxy and letsencrypt certs.

I’ve heard VERY good things about synology. Their software has a unique raid mode and an easy platform to host apps and such. But they’re kinda expensive…
