Help with getting my first Proxmox homelab up and running

[Volxes]

Hello! I have an old Dell Optiplex 9010 (i7, 16gb ram, 500gb SSD, 500gb & 250gb HDD) plugged in via ethernet to my router (TP-Link Archer AX11000) that I would like to use as a homelab to run Pi-Hole for my home internet, a minecraft server for me and my friends, and run Jellyfin for media. I have tried to get it up and running by myself, but I keep on running into issues. I have wiped all drives, and have the most recent ISO of Proxmox flashed to a usb drive. If I could get help walking through setting everything up it would be much appreciated! (Previous issues I have ran into have been not being able to access the web management page, my router not recognizing the server being plugged in, and not being able to route router to pi-hole)

Sounds all like network misconfiguration. Good start would be to learn the network basics. Running a minecraft server for your friends sounds like you want to make your services public and then you should understand networking to be able to secure it. There is lots of free learning material online for this. See for example this youtube series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SIjoeE93lo&list=PLDQaRcbiSnqF5U8ffMgZzS7fq1rHUI3Q8

I'll start here! Thank you so much for pointing me in a direction,
