Step by step guide on Patreon. If you are wanting to set up a home #DNS where you can add just a basic URL to all of the different services you have running in your home lab, then this is a guide on how to use #Adguard and #NginX on a low power computer where you can do just that. This is also good if you have services and your internet goes down, you can still rely on your home DNS.

azuweyxxxI really like netbird to do this, but you need a public domain.

lirkangelI have setup router from provider -> bare metal opnsense -> proxmox (nginx and adguard) somehow after pointing opnsense to adguard I have huge lag so I removed and back to public dns 😅
1
Creator
Apr 4, 2026I'd put the adguard, nginx on a dedicated device on the same switch as the opnsense, should reduce that lag
🚀🚀🚀Pangolin also offers security rules that will only allow traffic from specific IPs to get passed though to the auth page or bypass it all together.

Mar 29, 2026I'm a fan of pangolin
Colton JohnsonUse Cloudflare as dns and it is free ssl. Not entirely homelab I know but I’m lazy and it’s easy

Mar 26, 2026if you're able to port forward, have a static IP and not behing a cgnat then use, or use tunnels but that's public
Colton JohnsonWith a tp link deco. It lets me port forward easily. And it has built in free ddns and I use a cname record in Cloudflare to point to the domain that tp link gives

Mar 26, 2026your isp isn't putting you behing a cgnat then, and that's not too common these days
Colton JohnsonMy isp is a small regional one that sucks hot ass. They probably don’t know what that is. I’m lucky.

Nedislav 404great tutorial, having domains is way easier for non tech family members 😅

DatacenterDudepfSense has ACME and HAproxy built-in that take care of this. So if you’re already running those, it can just handle it natively

Nico Morgan | Equine MediaAny advice on how you would achieve the same on unraid?
1
Creator
Mar 10, 2026oh, hosting this in u raid, not an issue at all, same setup, just using the app store installations.

Seb :Pthis is also a great solution if you want to port forward services. as NGINX will deal with everything neatly through ports 80 and 443. just add cloudflare to manage your domain so you get added security.

Mar 10, 2026yeah, solid use case!
penultimateconquestI’ve got Nginx+pihole+crowdsec. I was told that I shouldn’t have my ports exposed. Should I put nginx behind my vpn?
1
Creator
Mar 10, 2026correct, exposing ports is just a way 8n to your network so best to keep them all locked down. VPN, depends on your setup, I'd suggest using g tunnels with auth for stuff you want public and then behind VPN for what you don't.
xjaridI ditched nginx proxy manager for traefik. From a security perspective, cloudflare api key is stored in plain text, which irks me.
Dr Calemvirso what j have done for my own setup in the past. caddy server exposed publicaly. get a domain then set that domain to your own public ip . THEN on pihole/adguard, point your domain to your caddyserver . then setup your caddyconfjgs. with a rule where if the ip address being connected to (is a header, idk which one( is the public one, if it is, reject. . what this does is caddy will fetch ssl for the public ip automatically, but the SSL will work when you connect overlan since SSL only verifies domain, not ip

Mar 9, 2026works well, unless you're behind a cgnat, then you have to use tunnels
MFKDGAFHave you looked at NPMplus?

Perfection DreamerCurrently going through hell with the traffic should I change to ngnix

Creator
Mar 9, 2026nginx proxy manager is super straight forwards, not tollay sure on trafek but, you saw how basic it was for me to set up.
DjxWrecktraefik has a better UI but nginx is easier to use imo. its super easy and straight forward to get everything set up. highly recommend nginx over traefik currently.

Creator
Mar 9, 2026it is very easy to use.
Perfection DreamerLet me try one more week with this tearful traefik then I am moving hell with auto discovery when it’s got 400 config faults

SlushyPieI tried pangolin last night on 2 different VPS’s, noot being on my unraid server. For some reason, on both VPS’s (gigabit speeds) the only max speed i could get was roughly 200KBps… I even tried replacing noot with WireGuard but no it didn’t change anything. Any thoughts?
1
Creator
Mar 9, 2026If both VPS nodes show the same ~200 KB/s and switching Noot → WireGuard didn’t change anything, the tunnel probably isn’t the problem. Most likely causes: • Home upload speed: 200 KB/s is roughly what a ~2 Mbps upstream connection delivers. • MTU issue: bad MTU on the tunnel can cause heavy fragmentation and kill throughput. • Weak VPS CPU: encryption can bottleneck on small 1-vCPU plans. Quick check: run an iperf test outside Pangolin between the VPS and the Unraid server. If that’s also ~200 KB/s, the limit is the network or CPU, not Pangolin.
SlushyPieHi thanks for replying, my upload speed is roughly 70mbps - starlink, using tailscale with nginx PM works perfectly fine, it maxes out my upload, i tried switching around the MTU on the wire guard tunnel but don’t have any luck unfortunately, the VPS’s i tried were 4cpu core / 8GB ram with gigabit speeds, i just I’ll just have to wait for an update but have you tried pangolin recently? Thanks ‘nn

SlushyPieJust an update on this if you were curious, I just ended up replacing gerbal and Newt with tailscale instead, setting the site connection to local (tailscale ip) 👍

MintFPSI use Pihole and Nginx Proxy Manager, works like a charm!

Mar 9, 2026pihole is great, but I've done a few vids in the past on it, so I wanted to change it up.

MintFPSDefinitely. I've been curious about Adguard for sure, glad they operate in mostly the same way.

CarlosAny recommendations for using AdGuard instead of Pi-hole? Thanks
2
Creator
Mar 9, 2026Honestly they are very similar, so not really much benifit of one over the other, adguard looks a little neater, that's about it.
