• Overwatch 2 disconnects when using Windows Server 2022 for DHCP/DNS

  You can try using a DNS/DHCP server other than the Windows one, e.g. Technitium I use this on Linux but as it is written in Dotnet it will of course also work on Windows Https://technitium.com/dns/. Source: 5 months ago

• Has anyone been able to set up dockerized CrowdSec in front of dockerized NPM using official images only?

  I recently made an effort to harden my network due to (technically) exposing more of it with FireZone (WireGuard). For the curious, I shared some details in a recent comment. I didn't mention it in the comment, but I also set up local DNS (Technitium) with block lists. Source: 5 months ago

  One option is use a local DNS proxy where you can use the same ad/tracker lists as something like Pi Hole. This is something I've tested and it works well (cross-platform, but focused on Windows): Https://technitium.com/dns/. Source: 12 months ago

• DNS Filter?

  If you don’t care about reporting, take a look at Technitium DNS server (https://technitium.com/dns). It’s super powerful and with the advanced blocking app you can have different policies per subnet. They really bill it as a DNS sinkhole for blocking ads, but you can find tons of blocklists out there to block additional things like porn, drugs, etc. I have this on my guest and BYOD networks currently and will...
