    I wish PiHole wasn’t so absolute dogshit about DNS requests from outside the local subnet, might use it then

    Permit all origins, allow all destinations. In the settings.

    Open an issue on the forums if it hasn’t already been fixed.

    Mine doesn’t revert.

    What OS/computer?

    Tried it bare metal on a Pi 4 and as a VM. I have my LAN using the 10.0.0.0/8 space and I couldn’t have DNS breaking all the time

    I'm going to try ad guard today... That way I can keep my DHCP

    Update: adguard does not block YouTube ads.

    You can use PiHole without their DHCP.

    Oh yeah? I didn't know. I thought I read on the pihole website that if you use pihole on a system on your network, you have to use static ips and cannot use DHCP.
