Overload can affect your’s access to the internet that’s true.
We’re talking here about Omnia. It’s really powerful router.
Pi-hole won’t overload it.
In my case I use Turris 1.1 and how can I overload it?
- downloading 200 Mbits
- tvheadend / transfering data in LAN
that’s sometimes enough for Turris 1.1 it can and it would handle better, but probes, which collects data for CZ.NIC are really heavy. That’s not case about Omnia at all.
######btw I was the only guy, who complained about it by official way. Don’t forget there was some other guys who complained about it, but respond was HW could handle around 800 Mbits, but probes are limit us to max 300 Mb/s and I didnt test it, but official respond was to turn off majordomo, because probe lcollect wasn’t well optimalized, if I understand it correctly) Source in Czech: https://twitter.com/BKPepe/status/833439658549866498 and ticket number: #789922
But that’s just example, how you can use your router. Don’t forget that it really depends (better word I think: rely) on services, which are running on your router.
It also really depends on your network speed and how are you using it. According to my stats on Turris.cz, where you can find graphs e.g. bandwidth utilization I realized that I would be satisfied with <100 Mbits.
and it’s not new that I have unique issues all the time
Some old and cheap routers are mostly culprit in network(s)
Anyway here is short FAQ for LXC in Turris doc (it was long, but I decided to rewrite it and it’s not finished, yet):

If you have any other questions, please, tell me. I will add them as well.
BTW:
RPi? C’mon. You deserve something better.
RPi has the best community and support, but that’s all. Look for example at Odroid C2, Pine A64, Rock64.
Their price is same as RPi.
