Hello!
I want to set up a pi-hole on my home and connect from my parent’s.
Both setups have a dynamic IP assigned by my isp and are different networks.
I have a couple of questions:
I can get a domain that updates automatically. But how would I resolve it on the client side?
Is there any way to authenticate on the server? By Mac maybe? That can be spoofed right?
Edit: my bad, thanks for correcting me, Mac is another layer completely

3. Set up your PiHole on a static private IP.
Ensure both sites can route across the tunnel. Based on your experience level and scope, dynamic routing is not recommended or necessary, which means static routes. Point a route for each side’s subnet to the Wireguard tunnel IPs so your firewalls know how to reach and respond to each other across the tunnel.
Configure your devices to use PiHole for their DNS, via DHCP ideally.
I didn’t look anything up yet. But can the wireguard tunnel be setup on the router level (I have a cheap Mikrotik) or as a network service? So clients don’t have to install custom stuff

Yes
