Please install the package 'luci-app-adblock'. Then you will find the application in LuCI located under 'Services' menu.
Thanks to Hannu Nyman for this great adblock LuCI frontend!
## CC installation notes
* currently the adblock package is *not* part of the CC package repository
* download the latest adblock package *adblock_x.xx.x-1_all.ipk* from a DD snapshot [package directory](https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/generic/packages/packages)
* manual transfer the package to your router and install the opkg package as usual
## Tweaks
* there is no need to enable all blacklist sites at once, for normal use one to three adblock list sources should be sufficient
* if you really need to handle all blacklists at once add an usb stick or any other storage device to supersize your temp directory with a swap partition => see [openwrt wiki](https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/fstab) for further details
