@gjacobse I've had no issues with my setup so far.
My only issues are my own .
Thank you to @scottalanmiller to making me see some obvious issues. ( like duh- open port 53)
I’m curious what you did, while the adguard is running and working- I want to close the VPS as much as possible... only one place that needs to be pulling dns from it,.. more when and IF I decide to add them.
You can configure access rules for Adguard Home.

In my case-
I’m running it on VULTR, so I don’t know if that will work.Seems with a bit of us running AdGuard- there should be a thread on it, install on to config, and administration...

Good morning all!

Then open DNS to just those locations.

When have they not had known issues? Back in the IBM days they were great, now they're known spyware on your network.

Well yeah, I know they were with superfish, but I had guessed they had solved that when they finally released drivers that removed that shit!
are you telling me they never became stable again after that crap years and years ago?
All that said - I continue to refuse to buy Lenovo stuff because of their history, so I have no recent experience with them.

Which drivers removing what? Remember that they had so many security issues so quickly that everyone got them all confused and assumed they fixed everything when they did not.

There was only one driver related issue that I recall - that was superfish itself. They injected shit into the driver that allowed them to see anything they wanted...
the other issue I recall from that time was BIOS to OS injection shit for lenovo updater, or whatever else they called it... sure some people call that malware, some call it a feature, meh, assuming that the software itself wasn't breaking security it wasn't an issue in my opinion... definitely not to the level superfish was.
My case, I had to install a completely different WiFi card to get a normal Intel provided driver to work in my lenovo laptop... completely bypassing their BS keyed driver.

They are famous for that. A lot of people replace the hardware!

Yeah, not as much, but it's still there.

They never did. We found that Windows never worked on some of the older gear. But Linux, no problem. It's all driver issues, it seems.
