Im not a complete networking newb, but im getting tired of my iPad and other devices that cant run a typical ad-blocker get flooded with ads.
Yes, im aware it wont work on YouTube ads and the like but im not worried about that so much as the piles of random ads when reading sites and new stories.
Using the web on my actual computers vs other devices is night-and-day.
Im not opposed to paying for the non-free plan… and plan to use my router to get the whole home covered.
My question is mostly…
how does NextDNS know to use my account and settings (the ability to customize block lists and all the options in NextDNS are appealing) when the traffic is coming from my router?
Sorry if im missing something obvious here, but my brain just isnt following along (been having some brain fog lately).
Thanks in advance for helping out my with inability to get my head around this one (which is puzzling to me because most of the time i understand this stuff pretty well).
