I imagine this is me being a noob, so first of all thank you for all the support on here already ... I've got my PiHole working, and it is wired directly into my router. The dashboard only reports the router itself as a client, rather than reporting the other devices on the network. Now it looks l…

Hello @lucullus , welcome to the Pihole Community. You have to setup your router in a way that it distributes pihole's IP as DNS Server via DHCP to clients. If you have changed that settings, you have to disconnect the clients once to pick up the new settings provided by your router.

Hmm. I have a recently purchased Unifi Dream Machine (hello, reliable wifi for lots of devices), but I'm not sure what I'd need to do on the DHCP.

[image] But depending on a few things, you may only see a single host in your Top Clients section, which is not as useful. [image] This isn't detrimental to the performance of your Pi-hole; it just provides you with less insight into what's happening on your network. So w…
