Pi-Hole setup stalled out
At my wits end trying to get this pi-hole setup at my parents place. I have one on my own home network so I've done it before (a few years ago) but this time feels like an uphill trudge.
I followed this YouTube video since I had to do the installation headless. The pi hole seems setup properly and is viewable on the network but
A) I've only managed to get into the web interface once. It froze up when I tried to add some blocklists and I've been unable to get back in.
B) I didn't realize this setup method was going to require routing each device through to the Pi's DNS. I absolutely didn't do that on my home network (is it because my pi hole at home is connected to the router via Ethernet vs wifi like this one is?)
Tried to figure out how to change the DNS on my folks home network (they have Verizon FiOS with a stock router). I swapped the IPv4 address but I don't think that's right as it hasn't done anything. The router is at least able to Ping the pi hole.
Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you.
