Download Pi-hole Core 5.17.3 / FTL 5.24

Version 5.17.3 of Pi-hole Core and Pi-hole FTL 5.24 have been released; No new version of Pi-hole Web has been released this time. Pi-hole is an advertising-aware DNS and web server intended to run on a Raspberry Pi in the network. If the router points to Pi-hole for DNS handling, all devices within the network will automatically use it without having to adjust any settings. Subsequently, advertisements are no longer retrieved, causing pages to load faster. It can also potentially keep malware out.
