hi,
I have followed several guides but they often give different commands and I got lost.
I have a Pi3b+, I would like to make the Wireless Access Point work so that smartphones, laptops etc. connect in wifi to Pi3 and so to main router/Internet.
I follow this official doc and it works but after installing the Pi-Hole it doesn't work anymore: clients can't connect to wifi and/or got not access to Internet.
Is there an easier way to install PiHole or a simple guide that allows you to do what i asked? thanks
Please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:
just done, it works!
I have a question for you: I need that only the wireless clients that connect the Access Point pass through Pihole while all other clients (i.e. those that connect directly via ethernet or wifi to the main router) access the Internet without passing through Pihole: would this configuration be possible WITHOUT edit configuration of main router?
Last question: I'm noticing that only the wireless clients connected to the Access Point I created on the pi3 are logged by Pihole (and not the other devices on the network): is this because during the installation I chose the WLAN interface (instead of eth or bridge) or for some mistake of mine?
Instead, configure your Pi-hole's Interface settings to respond only to wlan0 via Settings | DNS.
Then enable Pi-hole's DHCP server via Settings | DHCP.
Set the 192.168.4.1 (as per the guide) as the Router (gateway) IP address and stick with the defaults otherwise.
