## Common questions

### What should I prepare before running the Lancache Docker Compose stack?

Docker must already be installed, and the .env file should be filled in before running docker compose up -d. The .env file controls network and cache settings, so this helps avoid containers starting with wrong or missing values.

### How do I make devices on my network use the Lancache DNS?

After the containers are running, point the router so all DNS requests go only to the lancache-dns container. If the router still sends DNS requests elsewhere, devices may not use the cache.

### How can I test whether a client is using the Lancache?

Set one computer’s DNS to the Lancache server and then check normal web browsing plus a small Steam game download. This helps confirm the cache path is being used.

### Can Lancache be run together with Pi-hole?

Yes, a community tutorial combines Lancache with Pi-hole while keeping full Pi-hole statistics.
