Hello there, recently I have an setup to take this AdGuard Home add-on one (tiny) step further - along with pixelserv.
The problem: with the adguard in place, from time to time you would see this gibberish when you browse an website. Here’s an example when I use Google News:
While it’s fine and harmless as is, wouldn’t it be great to get rid of those?
The process
So I searched around, and realized that there is a project called pixelserv-tls out there.
And, then, there’s even a docker for this with the image size at just 7.6MB!! And even better for my HAOS-VM-inside-a-linux-box-with-intel-CPU setup, the docker is compatible to my setup.
https://hub.docker.com/r/imthai/pixelserv-tls
So the solution:
- I use the portainer add-on, which is also by frenck, pull the docker image, setup the ports, and deploy!
- Check the docker. If it is working you should see a blank page.
- Change the AdGuard DNS settings and point it to the ip of HAOS, using the “Custom IP” option.
- Done!
So most of the time is for me to read read read trying to know what need to be done. The time to actually implement this? It took me like 5 minutes only, and now the gibberish is gone!
Anyways, just want to share. I was lucky that my first attempt was a successful one.
