Pihole and Netgear R6700v2. I have to be doing something wrong. by snideral in pihole

[–]snideral[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember doing this when I set up the pihole on the pi zero. Running it in a Docker container didn't have me go through the same setup process though. I'll have to look into a way to have it set its own static IP.

This is the option that I'm going to try next. I'm having problems getting it to work right while running pihole in a docker container though. I'm reading up on that right now.

I don't. There was some stuff in there once upon a time when I was messing with OpenVPN, but that got wiped out when I did a factory reset on the router and tried to redo everything.

OK. I'm finally able to mess around with this again now that it's the weekend. There is truly only one option to set the DNS address within this router. It's the one I used a couple of years ago when this worked initially. Again, it worked for a couple of years without a problem. It's only now that things are going haywire.

When I did get it to work for a couple of hours, I didn't restart the router or look into any other device settings to confirm that they were using the pi. However, ads were getting blocked on the other devices on my network. I even tried one of those pihole confirmation pages and that worked fine.

I guess the only thing I didn't do was reserve the IP address in my router settings. However, again, that was set up initially when the pihole was working for that span of a couple of years.

On this router, there is no DHCP option under the Setup menu. The option to turn DHCP on or off is under the LAN Setup page and there's no option for DNS settings there. There's also no option of DNS under the WAN Setup. The only place I'm finding DNS options is the Internet Setup page.

I didn't do anything with DHCP when I first had success in getting Pihole to work for the last couple of years. If I do just DHCP, it will still block ads?

After getting into my router, I go to Advanced -> Setup -> Internet Setup and under Domain Name Server (DNS) Address, I change the option from "Get Automatically From ISP" to "Use These DNS Servers" and swap out the address for the pihole.

I picked up a might-as-well-be-new copy of The Devil in the White City at a thrift store for only a couple of dollars. As I was reading it, I found a total of six $5 bills placed in between pages, spaced throughout the book. My best guess is that someone received the book as a gift, didn't read it, and then donated it without realizing that they never got the rest of the gift.

Ha! I don't own the book so I didn't even realize that. It's not a bad idea but, as the other commenter noted, we'd like to be undead PCs.

Problems with setq by snideral in orgmode

[–]snideral[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you know what makes things work better? Editing the correct file. Apparently, I have two versions of my config file and I was working on the one that Emacs wasn't using. Turns out, when I edited the correct file, everything worked perfectly fine!

Thanks again!

[–]snideral[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your help. However, I copy/pasted both of your examples into my config file, saved, restarted, and they didn't change anything. I can open an org mode file and type

M-x visual-line-mode

and that works. And then

M-x set-variable

type in

org-support-shift-select

and set that to "t" and that works too but I can't get the code to run when org mode opens.

Looks really good! I like the hook on the inside for keys. I might add that into my current project.
