Adguard dns unlimited queries

[ghost]

Are there any ideas for the future already? For home usage to provide unlimited queries

for free, Or a additional addon for 5/10eur extra a month

its not about if someone reach 10million but its just for a idea Ive seen more people that wants it

I second this...unlimited just gives a sense of no worry about ads. Else telling like 10million queries gives worry like when will it end and ads will popup thus checking the dashboard from time to time wasting time

My 2 cents; there's no such thing as unlimited. There is however something like: "as much as needed".

I'd say your average Joe wouldn't know how many queries he needs. So he wouldn't know if 10 million is enough.

If it was me running this, I'd rebrand it to "unlimited" or "as many queries as you need"

Where the * points to a FUP message, and maybe stating the average user queries, and comparing that to 10 million.

Adguard will know the difference between use and miss-use. So they could just allow for over 10 million for real users and maybe even contact miss-users before 10 million

I think 10M is a good start point, hard to hit monthly by an avg house. (3 computers, 5 phones, 2 tvs, 1 xbox) making it "flex" when you reach the 10M mark, like pay 3 extra to cover until the end of the month or just unfilter til the end of the month would be a good way to deal with it. heck... even partner with other brands like quad9 for the missing queries over 10M mark. the dashboard is just too good to let it go.

Increasing the block TTL to 3600 seconds would drastically reduce your usage as I hardly hit the DNS mark to 5M anytime. Let me tell you that I am covering two households my home in the city where I work and the other where my family lives. Both have 15+ devices, meaning I am covering ~30 devices at a time as I have set the DNS on the router level, and some personal devices I have direct access to so that if something goes wrong, I can change it immediately. Recently I have become mature with the list selection on AdGuard DNS 2.0, and everything works fine for me with the 3600 seconds TTL, but you can start testing with as low as 30 seconds.

It is mid-month, and I am still at 2.3M hits from all my devices and other endpoints with configuration files installed or Private DNS on.

Here under server settings, you can see to set it up for yourself.

I also have several devices and reach 9M within 21 days cause setting ttl to 0 for some reason setting to anything above 10 causes iphone devices to be wonky like will take 2-3 reload...ended up shifting back to nextdns
