Having everything connected to the router automatically get ad blocking is great.
I do wish the pihole was easier to use. I don't think my parents would be up for manually updating it via SSH in a console.
You can access the web client from any connected machine and do it from there.
Also you can save the IP from the machine running it as a local DNS entry, something like pi.hole, so they can just type pi.hole/admin in the browser to access the dashboard
Where do you enter the 'pihole -up' command in the web client?
