The problem

Currently on Windows 11 there's no question to the user regarding adding a Windows Firewall rule to allow other devices on the same LAN to access the AdGuard Home server.

At the moment you'd need to manually add it using Windows Firewall (most users would likely not understand it).

Proposed solution

Ideally there would be an option to enable a Windows Firewall rule (allow app through the firewall) and set whether it should apply to:

  • Private Network
  • Public Network
  • OR both
  • OR none

This would help with smoothing out the usage of AdGuard Home during either initial setup or in the Settings area.
