    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    unfortunately no, the router is not able to do that now. However pihole is able to do that, but you have to turn on DHCP for that. I'd rather not turn that on in the pihole. When I get a proper microserver (instead of a raspberry pi), I will turn the DHCP on for pihole and turn DHCP router off.

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    YESSS!!! that makes total sense. DUH we've both been saying it intercepts ALL DNS traffic. Of course it would still intercept the internal Pihole DNS traffic without exception. That explains my screenshot of pihole because when i make a single DNS request for example youtube. In the log it will...

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    are you sure about this? Because when I set it to global filter router and reboot all devices it appears to go to DHCP DNS LAN 1/2 Here is log from me changing it via the command you gave me (very useful by the way, wish i would have known about this ages ago) Chain DNSFILTER (2 references)...

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    Yes I would say you are correct it is working with DNS Filtering on and global option set to "no filtering" Maybe you can answer this then because clearly I am confused. When I select no filtering, a client automatically bypasses the DNS filtering and then either uses the LAN DNS 1/2 provided...

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    It was the same hardware RT-AC68U. I do upgrade the firmware everytime a new one comes out. Just to give you a general time frame. I bought this router maybe 9 months ago. Set it up within about a month had DNS filtering on. Worked great. However I stopped using DNS filtering after about 2-3...

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    no worries. It should work as you said, i've had it working 6 or so months ago with another device. Device 2 is my laptop which I was using for testing to go through the pihole and it works fine. the Nixie clock as you see is set to OpenDNS which in theory should work but I know its not working...

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    maybe these will also help. Also 192.168.30.5 does not exist on my network, that is ok and i want it like that. I am forwarding a dodgy devices DNS to a DNS server that does not exist so it will just time out and not go anywhere

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    Custom DNS Filtering question /problem

    Thanks and yes it would go device DNS requst to pi hole (20.251) and pi hole would reach out if it did not have anything cached on the domain. the DNS for the pi hole is Ad Guard DNS. This is working fine for all devices. I can see requests coming in to pi hole every few seconds. I am currently...
