GoogleWiFi + Pi-hole and NordVPN

Hello friends, as I promised in my previous post I’m going to tell you about configuring GoogleWiFi router with a Raspberry Pi server acting as DHCP and DNS server / VPN gateway.

I’m not sponsored by NordVPN, instructions provided as is and as any information from the Internet should be used carefully.
