PiHole is becoming a bit heavy for my Zero W (uses the same chip as the original Pi series), and it's the only thing the Pi runs. It's a bit worrying.

Do you worry about that Zero being deauthed since it uses 2.4 only still?

I ask as I'm having somewhat of a bit of lag / delay or something I need to look further into later with a Zero/DVBHAT + between my RPi5 / router which is using as its DNS provider (AdguardHome) and because I still use a 2.4GhZ camera (which has also been playing up recently....), got me thinking about having all the cams / Pi's / SFF PC's not only hard wired, but turning off the 2.4GhZ weefee altogether on the router due to Flippers and shit.

tldr: should I care?

My Zero W lives in a Geekworm case with an RJ45 port, so it's wired directly to the router. I likely won't be using it for anything else at this point. Even just opening the web UI bogs it down pretty heavy.

Thought I just realized it's still running Raspbian (11, not 12), so maybe I'll look at running DietPi.
