Hi, Just installed OpenWRT. Which solutions for ad blocking and other trackers would you recommend? Pi-Hole is not a option, since I don't have one laying around.

So anything else I can try which will work out of the box? For links and guides I'd be happy. PS: I got dual antennas what would come into your mind to do with it?

For DNS-based on openwrt specifically: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/ad-blocking

Try them out and see which one you prefer.

All these work similarly to pihole. If you choose an option that integrates with ipset, you can get slightly stronger than by blocking IPs associated with hostnames.

As others mentioned, it's good to couple with a client-side filter like uBlock origin.
