I am tending towards a RaspberryPi with PiHole. Would there be any advantage with an OpenWRT router if it’s just plugged into the ISPs router anyways?

    I would suggest using Piholes regardless of your routing strategy. They can help improve the web browsing experience by improving load times, can capture stuff missed by browser ad blocks, and work as an adblocker for devices that don’t have browsers, like Apps and smart tvs.

      Thanks, I will definitely keep this in mind. Currently using OpenWRT with LuCI-adblock, which is not quite as extensive as a PiHole, but gets the job done. I have three RaspberryPi 3’s just collecting dust so I may as well switch at some point.
