Edited to correct my typo on CL resulting in false info

Is this from a single client or all clients? Are you using the exact URL pi.hole/admin or are you using http://pi.hole/admin

From the client where you cannot load the pi.hole version of the admin page, what is the output of this command from the client terminal or command line?

nslookup pi.hole

So far tested on one client, android device
I've tried both URLs.
I'm also seeing adverts

pi@pi-hole:~ $ nslookup pi.hole
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Name:   pi.hole
Address: 192.168.0.45

Edit, I've now set pi-hole as DHCP, and disabled it on my ISP provided router.
Also disabled ipv6

This command was not run from a client, it was run from the terminal on the Pi (although it may have been through ssh). We are checking that the client is using Pi-Hole for DNS, so the command needs to be run from that client.

I think this may be resolved.
IPV6 was enabled on my router due to a forced hard reset.
IPV6 disabled on router, DHCP disabled on router.

pi-hole acting as DHCP and it seems to work OK.
adverts are blocked as expected.
only niggle seems to be speed of page loads feels lower

I can double check this from another device later (Linux laptop)
i dont know of a way to run nslookup on an android device?
