+<p>2022-11-04</p>
+<p>Eariler this year I posted <a href="/eero">detailed instructions on setting up Pi-Hole with Eero</a> and it seemed to help out a few people having troubles. With AdGuard Home recently popping up on the <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33387678">frontpage of HackerNews</a>, I thought now would be a great time to post instructions of setting up <em>that</em> service alongside Eero devices.</p>
+<h2 id="what-youll-need">What You&#8217;ll Need</h2>
+<ol>
+<li>Raspberry Pi device (I recommend the Pi Zero for simplicity and low cost)</li>
+<li>microSD card</li>
+<li><a href="https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/">Raspberry Pi Imager</a></li>
+<li>micro USB to ethernet adapter (check your local Amazon)</li>
+<li>Patience!</li>
+</ol>
+<h2 id="setting-up-the-raspberry-pi">Setting Up the Raspberry Pi</h2>
+<p>The first thing we need to do is flash Raspberry Pi <strong>Lite</strong> onto our SD card. Open Raspberry Pi Imager, select the <strong>Lite</strong> version of the OS and your respective media (the SD card):</p>
+<p><img src="/public/images/rpi-lite-os.webp" alt="Raspberry Pi Lite" /></p>
+<p>Don&#8217;t flash anything just yet! Be sure to use the gear icon and edit the settings. Set a custom hostname, enable <code>ssh</code> and setup a proper user:</p>
+<p><img src="/public/images/rpi-adguard-1.webp" alt="Imager settings" /></p>
+<h2 id="plug-it-in-and-boot">Plug it in and Boot!</h2>
+<p>Put the SD card into your Pi, connect power and ethernet. Give it a bit of time to boot up. Once you see a nice solid green LED, go back to your local computer&#8217;s terminal and enter the following command:</p>
+<pre><code>ssh piguard@piguard.local
+</code></pre>
+<p>If everything was set up properly you will be asked to trust this device. Next, you will be prompted to enter the device password you setup.</p>
+<p>Once you are connected directly to the Pi, it&#8217;s best to check for updates:</p>
+<pre><code>sudo apt update
+</code></pre>
+<p>&#8230;and if updates are in fact available, install them via:</p>
+<pre><code>sudo apt upgrade
+</code></pre>
+<h2 id="installing-adguard-home">Installing AdGuard Home</h2>
+<p>Simply run the automated installer:</p>
+<pre><code>curl -s -S -L https:&#47;&#47;raw.githubusercontent.com&#47;AdguardTeam&#47;AdGuardHome&#47;master&#47;scripts&#47;install.sh | sh -s -- -v
+</code></pre>
+<p>Follow the instructions and you&#8217;ll be setup in no time! To view your AdGuard dashboard at any time, you can now simply navigate to <code>piguard.local</code>.</p>
+<p>If you run into any issues, I strongly suggest <a href="https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome#getting-started">reading through the &#8220;Getting Started&#8221; guide</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="configuring-the-eero-app">Configuring the Eero App</h2>
+<p>Once your AdGuard Home server is installed and running, you can finally point your Eero network at it.</p>
+<ol>
+<li>Open the Eero app (iOS or Android)</li>
+<li>Navigate to <strong>Settings</strong> &#62; <strong>Network Settings</strong> &#62; <strong>DNS</strong></li>
+<li>Select <strong>Customized DNS</strong> and enter both your saved IPv4 &#47; IPv6 values (These can be found under the <code>Setup Guide</code> tab in the main AdGuard Dashboard)</li>
+<li>Eero will prompt you to reboot your network - do it</li>
+</ol>
+<p>After the system reboots everything <em>should</em> be working as intended!</p>
+<h2 id="closing-thoughts">Closing Thoughts</h2>
+<p>I&#8217;ve personally switched over from Pi-Hole to AdGuard Home - it just feels more robust and the UI is significantly cleaner. Hopefully this helps others trying to do the same!</p>
