Most likely, you haven’t configured your device to use AdGuard Home as the default DNS server. To check if you’re using AdGuard Home as your default DNS server:

1. On Windows, open a Terminal window (*Start* → *Run* → `cmd.exe`). On other systems, open your Terminal application.
1. On Windows, open Command Line Interface (*Start* → *Run* → `cmd.exe`). On other systems, open your Terminal application.

Isn't cmd.exe called Command Prompt rather than Command Line Interface (which is a generic term also applicable to bash, PowerShell, etc)?

If you intend to run AdGuard Home on **your computer only,** select the loopback device (also known as “localhost”). It is usually called `localhost`, `lo`, or something similar and has the address `127.0.0.1`.

If you plan to run AdGuard Home on a **router within a small isolated network,** select the locally-served interface. The names can vary, but they usually contain the words `wlan` or `wlp` and have an address starting with `192.168.`. You should probably also add the loopback address as well, if you want software on the router itself to use AdGuard Home too.

About 75% of AdGuard DNS traffic is encrypted. This is actually what differentiates content-blocking DNS servers from others. If you take a look at CloudFlare or Quad9 stats, you’ll see that encrypted DNS is just a small share of all queries.

AdGuard DNS exists in two main forms: [public AdGuard DNS](public-dns/overview) and [private AdGuard DNS](private-dns/overview). None of these services require the installation of apps. They are easy to set up and use, and provide users with the minimum features necessary to block ads, trackers, malicious websites, and adult content (if required).

## DNS filtering module in AdGuard products

All major AdGuard products, including AdGuard VPN, have a **DNS filtering module** where you can select a DNS server by a provider you trust. Of course, AdGuard DNS Default, AdGuard DNS Non-filtering and AdGuard DNS Family Protection are on the list. Also, AdGuard apps allow users to [easily configure and use AdGuard DNS](https://adguard-dns.io/public-dns.html) — public or private.

A hard reboot can also help flush the DNS cache for your device. In order to do that, press and hold the power button for at least 20 seconds. It will (usually) force your device to reboot manually and the DNS cache will be cleared.

Немного странный совет - на новых дроидах есть кнопка "Исправление проблем с подключением", и есть штатная перезагрузка. Также удаление подключения или переключение между сетями может помочь.


Another option is to reset the network settings of your device in the Settings app. Open *Settings → System → Advanced → Reset options → Reset network settings* and tap *Reset Settings* to confirm.
