Tbrg Adguardnet -
It acts as a wrapper for Microsoft's own download servers. While Microsoft often makes it difficult to find ISOs for older versions of Windows (like specific builds of Windows 10 or 11), this site allows you to select exactly what you need through a simple dropdown interface.
How it works (brief)
- AdGuard DNS or AdGuard Home runs as a DNS resolver on your network (local device, router, or cloud).
- Client devices send DNS queries to that resolver.
- The resolver checks queries against blocklists (domains known to serve ads, trackers, malware).
- Blocked domains are resolved to a safe/blank address (or an internal block page), preventing ad/server connections.

- Visit
adguard.com/test.html. It should show "AdGuard DNS is running." - Visit a known tracking domain (e.g.,
doubleclick.net). It should time out or refuse connection. - Check your AdGuard dashboard "Query Log." You should see domains blocked specifically by the TBRG custom list highlighted in red.
- Allowlists (explicitly permitted)
- Denylists (explicitly blocked)
- TBRG (Traffic-Based Rule Group) – A dynamic set of filters applied based on real-time traffic analysis.
