Finally, and by popular demand, RaspAP has released its own [ad blocking facility](https://github.com/billz/raspap-webgui/wiki/Ad-blocking) with support for custom blocklists.
## <a name="bridged"></a>Bridged AP mode is unstable or clients can't connect. Help!
RaspAP [delegates all DHCP control to your router](https://github.com/billz/raspap-webgui/wiki/Bridged-AP-mode) in bridged AP mode. If you have trouble connecting clients, start with this project's [default configuration](https://github.com/billz/raspap-webgui/wiki/Reporting-issues#default-settings) in routed AP mode _first_ and try connecting a client. Enabling logging for DHCP and hostapd can help you identify problems. If you have no issues with client connectivity with the default routed AP, but cannot connect clients in bridged AP mode, in most cases the problem lies with your router—not RaspAP. Check your router's web interface and DHCP settings.

From your device's shell prompt, executing `sudo dhclient -v` will provide details of DHCP requests between your device and router. If clients disconnect intermittently, this often indicates an undervoltage issue with your RPi. Check the kernel log for any `Under-voltage detected!` errors. Be sure you are using an official 5.1V power supply (each model has different power requirements) and detach any USB devices. Executing `dmesg | grep br0` can also offer clues.

Troubleshooting client connectivity in bridged AP mode is not supported. No hard feelings.
```
CLIENT -> DHCPDISCOVER
SERVER -> DHCPOFFER
CLIENT -> DHCPREQUEST
SERVER -> DHCPACK
```
If your device (the client) broadcasts DHCPDISCOVER, but there is no DHCPOFFER response from your router, you have a misconfiguration or other issue with your network. Troubleshooting client connectivity in bridged AP mode is not supported. No hard feelings.
## <a name="adguard"></a>Can I integrate RaspAP with Adguard Home?
Yes, you can run RaspAP and [Adguard Home](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome) on the same device. Change Adguard Home’s listening port to `5300` and bind to `127.0.0.1`, then go to RaspAP's > **DHCP Server** > **Advanced** page and enable the "Upstream DNS Server". Add `127.0.0.1#5300` as an upstream DNS Server. Save settings and restart dnsmasq. Tip via [@firestrife23](https://github.com/billz/raspap-webgui/issues/542#issuecomment-609078400)
