    Is there any router side solutions for YouTube adds? I want to block for my family, but they don’t see the point.

      Nope. Youtube ads are served from the same domains as the videos so there is nothing you can to to block them via DNS. Your best bet is just installing Ublock for them. Now a days an ad blocker is a security necessity anyways.

          When you stop using roku and just plug in a cheap used laptop or something instead

              I actually really like the unified remote app. It lets you use your phone as a remote for any computer on the same network. I think the premium version just lets you link more computers otherwise the free version is just as good.
