If you have a pi kicking around or a docker instance of pihole you can use it to take over dhcp of the router and then set the dns servers in pihole.
That’s what I do currently on my home hub
That might be the way to do it. I'm somewhat unfamiliar with networking, what does DHCP do?
DHCP strands for dynamic host control protocol. It is a server that assigns dynamic IP addresses to devices on the network which request it.
So the pi takes over dchp and assigns itsself as a DNS server? I assume if I want to assign static IPs I have to do it through the pi from then on?
Can't use pihole because I'm running NixOS on my pi and the only way to run it is via docker container (which melts down my system, believe it's trying to emulate x86 for some reason)
