AdGuard Home: Blocking Ads and Trackers

AdGuard Home is a free, open-source DNS sinkhole designed to block ads, trackers, and unwanted content right at the network level. By acting as a local DNS server, it prevents requests to known advertising and tracking domains, providing a cleaner, faster, and safer browsing experience across all devices in your home or office.

Main Features

  • Polished Web Interface: AdGuard Home offers an intuitive dashboard where users can easily monitor network activity and manage filters.
  • Insightful Analytics: See detailed statistics on blocked domains, query logs, and client activity to understand how the system protects your network.
  • Customizable Blocking: You can add or remove domains from the blocklist and create whitelists to tailor protection to your needs.
  • Privacy-Focused: By blocking tracking domains centrally, it enhances privacy without relying on browser extensions.

Setting up AdGuard Home on your router or a dedicated device lets you enjoy ad-free internet seamlessly on phones, computers, and smart devices—all without extra software on each device. It’s a smart, effective way to keep your network clean with minimal hassle.
