Expected Behaviour:
DNS queries should resolve, new clients should receive DHCP leases.
Actual Behaviour:
DNS stops working from time to time and new clients can't obtain a DHCP lease. This has happened several times and I think it typically (always?) is happening when a device tries to first connect after being offline for a while (requesting DHCP lease?) and that device is trying to claim a domain. There are a couple of work PCs on my network that do this. I cannot resolve DNS or get DHCP leases for a while and then it seems to resolve on its own.

The last time it happened was around 1/7 @ 10:25AM. The FTL log above includes that timeframe.
This is a similar thread but had no resolution (user stopped responding to support) Database locks up every 2-3 days, recovers by itself in about 2 hours
Thanks for any support you can provide, I have only been running this a month or so and other than this it has worked great.
Edit: Since this post I disabled blocking and get the same behavior. As of today I've stopped using the Pi Hole entirely because I can't be losing internet for 20 minutes every other time my work laptop requests a DHCP lease.
