AdGuard Home setup guide
plikmuny:
I am very happy that after following the Guide posted here i could able to setup AGH and Unbound successfully.
I have Internet now and the page loading time is insane. i amreally liking it.
But i have one problem, after setting AGH and Unbound as only Resolver i am not able to update the Package... once i click the update it keeps on waiing for the update... What is wrong with my Opnsense ? why cant i update my packages ? i also intend to install other Packages, but without updating how will i do it ? why only the firmware update function is not working but Internet is Working ???
i am clueless, pls help me to solve this problem... Thanks

Hey there, I'm a n00b at OPNsense (actually came here to try and research a question) but I had a similar problem as you with updates.
Once I change the server location to get updates, mine worked. I picked one that was close to me regionally and then my updates went through with no problem.
(Sorry not on my network right now so I can't get screenshots) I'll try later if you would like.
Not sure if it's the same problem you are having but may be worth a try
Let me know if it works for ya

I've successfully gotten Adguard home working following the steps posted above.
One of the steps however says to clear the DNS settings for each gateway in the System>Settings>General in doing so I believe this has caused conflict with my multiple gateway and failover group setup.
Would there be a work around for this step in multi wan? "Go to System ‣ Settings ‣ General and make sure each gateway has its own DNS setup"
I'm not sure how to make this work with Adguard home, having all of them cleared for AGH seems to do weird things with DNS when it failsover.
Any help would be much appreciated.
edit: I've thrown in the towel on this one, decided benefit of adguardhome was not worth the complication in my setup or to have issues with vlan or failover DNS (I'm new to opnsense).

Hi,
I just finished installing Adguard. Work like a charm. Please don't mind if I ask, is there a guide to add multiple networks to Adguard?
For example, I have a separate interface for AP, I changed rule of AP interface: Destination: AP address to Destination: LAN address and added 192.168.1.1 as DNS in its DHCP. It seems to work and I start seeing Adguard picking up IP from mobile devices. However, I wonder if it would cause any issue.
Cheers
Edit: Found the answer in page 14

Yup, i actually Found Matt's website on how to do this : https://0x2142.com/how-to-set-up-adguard-on-opnsense/
Very Bottom.
Example how to add more networks is, Example Default with no additional networks :
In there, you'll see a section like this:
dns:
bind_hosts:
- 192.168.1.1
And one with more :
dns:
bind_hosts:
- 192.168.1.1
- 192.168.10.1
- 192.168.100.1

Thanks jlab
Edit: Faced a slow loading dashboard, failed to update. Turns out the solution is just need to change bind_host and dns:bind_host to 0.0.0.0. Also was un-abled to update till I hit a couple more times, thing just went through.
Thanks everyone, I just need to read the whole thread :D
One question tho, in some screenshots, I see Unbound: Register DHCP leases & Register DHCP static mappings are unticked. Others said they ticked those. I tried both and had no issue with internet connection. Kinda confused. Sorry, I'm a noob. My excuse is I just start using Opnsense a couple months ago.
Edit: Upgraded to the latest Opnsense today and Connection drop after reboot. Router can connect to internet but Adguard does not resolve DNS. Disabled Adguard and change Unbound back to 53 fix the issue. # Adguard plugin needs update. Solution: opnsense-revert -r 23.1.5 opnsense

for some reason when I followed these steps, it seemingly brought down my WAN permanently...as in, it did not recover and I had to reverse everything, including Unbound to get the WAN UP again....anybody else?
