<p>2021-10-28</p>
<p>After seeing Cloudflare&#8217;s 1.1.1.1 for Families mentioned on the <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29024195">front page of HackerNews</a>, I thought it might be helpful to show those currently using a <a href="https://pi-hole.net">pi-hole device</a> how to include 1.1.1.1 alongside it.</p>
<h2 id="keeping-things-updated">Keeping Things Updated</h2>
<p>It should go without saying that you should be running the latest stable pi-hole version for security and full feature support. To do so, simply <code>ssh</code> into your device (or connect to it directly if you prefer) and run the following to check your pi-hole version:</p>
<pre><code>pihole -v
</code></pre>
<p>And if your version is out of date, run:</p>
<pre><code>pihole -up
</code></pre>
<p>Once it completes the update everything will be good to go!</p>
<h2 id="adding-1.1.1.1-1.1.1.2">Adding 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.2)</h2>
<p>Now you need to navigate to your main pi-hole admin in your browser (most likely the url will be <em>pi.hole</em>). Login in using your credentials and the do the following steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Navigate to <strong>Settings</strong></li>
<li>Navigate to <strong>DNS</strong></li>
<li>Under &#8220;Upstream DNS Servers&#8221; enter:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Custom 1 (IPv4): 1.1.1.2</li>
<li>Custom 2 (IPv4): 1.0.0.2</li>
</ul>
