Change your rate limit:

Your debug log shows that your router at 192.168.0.1 gets rate limited.

This may happen if you'd have configured your router to use Pi-hole as its upstream, rather than telling your clients to use Pi-hole for DNS.
In that case, applying jfb's advice to adopt a rate limit according to your typical load would apply.

However, your debug log also suggests that there are indeed clients that send their DNS requests directly to your Pi-hole:

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Pi-hole processes
[✓] lighttpd daemon is active
[✓] pihole-FTL daemon is active

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Pi-hole-FTL full status
   ● pihole-FTL.service - Pi-hole FTL
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/pihole-FTL.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: active (running) since Wed 2023-10-04 12:16:28 UTC; 7h ago

How did you configure your router to make use of Pi-hole?

Hi.

thanks for replay. to both o you.

i have changed the rate limit. 2000/30

and i have configured the UDM PRO.
::: Under Network, select the default network and navigate to DHCP DNS Server. Set the DNS server to the IP address of your Pi-hole device. This will configure your UDM to assign the Pi-hole IP address as the DNS server for all devices that connect to your network via DHCP.

Under Internet, select the default WAN and navigate to DNS Server. Set the DNS server to the IP address of your Pi-hole device. This will configure your UDM to use the Pi-hole IP address as the DNS server for all outbound traffic.

like this from this link : UDM - PRO Link to reddit
