SERVFAIL on all domains

Please follow the below template, it will help us to help you!

Expected Behaviour:

Working as a DNS

Actual Behaviour:

As soon as I switch router to the ip address of pihole all internet access lost

Debug Token:

[✓] Your debug token is: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/3yg4sfh56k

For your privacy, I removed your debug log from your post. With the token, the developers can access your debug log and it will not be public.

Please post output from /var/log/pihole.log showing the DNS queries received and the responses, including any that resulted in SERVFAIL.

This command will tell you directly if there are any occurences of SERVFAIL in your log:

sudo grep SERVFAIL /var/log/pihole.log

If nothing, then post the most recent 25 lines of your log:

tail -n25 /var/log/pihole.log

Any ideas on this. It works if I set the DNS on my ethernet connection on my pc but not if I set it on my router?

How do you set it on the router? Can you provide a screenshot of the settings you try to apply?

Hi the only setting I've changed on my router is manual dns to 192.168.1.39

The problem likely lies in your router settings. The Pi-Hole log is normal and you can use Pi-Hole if you manually assign a client the Pi-Hole IP as DNS.

Look at every router setting. Turn off DNS pre-binding, private browsing, IPv6, etc. There is a setting in your router that is not correct.
