Hi, I wanted to change my upstream DNS server to OpenDNS so changed it on the Pi-Hole web interface. After restarting the pi-hole and my router I was no longer getting any DNS resolutions via the Pi-Hole. It kept going to secondary DNS server on my router (8.8.8.8). I reverted back to previous set…

It wasn't ordinarily configured that way - only when I was having issues to check that it wasn't a general network/internet problem. I messed about it for ages trying various things. Nothing worked. I rebuilt the pi and reinstalled pi-hole which, ultimately, got it working again.

Changed Upstream DNS Server and Now Pi-Hole Not Working

Help

Don't do this.
