    I have set up a pihole (so inside my network) as a recursive DNS server

    I'd like to set up a perm VPN for all external traffic on the network (rather than per device) as i would like things like the tv and so on to use it too.

    I have managed to install ExpressVPN on the pi, but im assuming its now acting on behalf the pi rather than the whole network?

    How do i get all the traffic to route through the pi vpn but also to use the pihole ? is there an easy way? Does it open the pi to online threats? Do i need to secure it?

  • I can't answer the pi question, but I have one of these that is running a VPN full time. Things like my streaming box connect to that instead of my normal router.

  • If you want to route through the pi, you'd have to set it up as a router, I'd have thought. Openwrt or similar.

    Or you could set up your clients to tunnel to the Pi acting as a NPN server, and the Pi forwards the traffic as a VPN client. Ick.

    Currently, your clients are sending port 53 traffic to the Pi, (or your router is redirecting all requests. Or it should be.), and probably little else.

    A router that could forward all traffic would be probably be the best setup.

    Obvs I'm waybout of my depth here.
