Some hints to set up a ad free VPN on a nat vps.

Here is a super simple guide to set up a ad free vpn that come with a adguard interface on a nat vpn. The reason why I write this is because I see some others suffering with pi-hole on a nat vps.

This guide should be unreadable since I am bad in all Language. I just hope my experience worth 2 cents.

What is AdguardHome?

AdguardHome is a alternative of pi hole. If you dont know what is pi-hole, google it.

What is OpenVPN?

Openvpn is a VPN

My server: 256MB from @mrvm

  1. install AdguardHome, too simple,skip. Hints : I use [ipv6]:3000 to complete the install process
  2. Encryption settings for AdguadHome. Hints : you can get a let's encrypt cert very easy with acme.sh

  3. config Adguardhome's Adguardhome.yaml (127.0.0.1 -> your internal IP address), Like that

    dns:
    bind_host: your internal IP address

  4. set up proxy from mrvm clients panel. (That domain forwarding bottom),this action give you a Adguard Home control panel

  5. install openvpn or any other vpns then point the dns to your internal IP

my suggestion is bash a script

Now, you get a ad-free VPN and a DNS over https.

Is it too short?

    You can replace openvpn with wireguard. Faster and efficient.

    It is openvz :anguished: . I know I can use wireguard-go but OpenVPN is not bad either. :)

    I just set this up on 128 mb NAT vps. Totally worth the $2 per annum I've paid for the service. Thanks for the tutorial

    FWIW, Wireguard is actually quite a bit faster on slow CPUs than OpenVZ. Haven't done audits of it, but several places are embracing WireGuard, including writing their own implementation.

    And I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.

    Wireguard howto. It works! I have had it running on several NAT vps for over 12 months now.

    I actually using wireguard now but not on a nat openvz box. Personal VPN don't eat many server resources so that I host it with my other little things.
    Spend time researching how to install wireguard on openvz is too wasteful.
