Cannot ping using hostname or fully qualifed domain name Pihole is the DHCP & DNS service provider in the LAN. The router does not perform this function. Expected Behaviour: Any active DHCP client in the LAN could be referred to by its fully qualified domain name but right now that is not happening…

Hello @deHakkelaar & @chrislph , Cannot thank you enough for your patience and understanding. Problem solved. (user self-inflicted error). After overriding the DNS server and ensuring that it points to pi-hole, everything works as before. Regards.

Unable to use Fully Qualified Domain Names in LAN

I believe below will list DNS server(s) configured:

nmcli

The Pi-hole IP should be the only one!
