Per Redirecting..., when using command dig pi-hole.net @127.0.0.1 -p 5353
it should be slow but receive a response
Actual Behaviour:
This is what I get every time:
; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Raspbian <<>> pi-hole.net@127.0.0.1 -p 5353
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
I also have this error in my debug log
[✓] IPv6 address(es) bound to the wlan0 interface:
fe80::3594:871:9e77:7921 does not match the IP found in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf (Use IPv6 ULA addresses for Pi-hole)
^ Please note that you may have more than one IP address listed.
As long as one of them is green, and it matches what is in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf, there is no need for concern.
The link to the FAQ is for an issue that sometimes occurs when the IPv6 address changes, which is why we check for it.

I followed the link about the IPv6, but the pst went over my head. in the unbound.conf.d./pi-hole.conf file, I set do-IPv6 to no. I have since changed that to 'yes' and added the IPv6 IP address to the pihole.conf from the debug log. I am still getting the above time out error on the dig command,
This is not abnormal. As long as you have an IPV4 address assigned (shows a few lines above in your debug log), you're OK.
pi-hole.net @127.0.0.1 -p 5353

Test your DNS function on something other than unbound - dig pi-hole.net @8.8.8.8. If this returns an address, and since unbound did not, it indicates something is wrong with unbound.
When you installed unbound, did you put a "/var/lib/unbound/root.hints" file in place? The installer does not do this for you. This file contains the addresses of the root servers. Should look like this (just the first few lines shown):
; This file holds the information on root name servers needed to
; initialize cache of Internet domain name servers
; (e.g. reference this file in the "cache . <file>"
; configuration file of BIND domain name servers).
;
; This file is made available by InterNIC
; under anonymous FTP as
; file /domain/named.cache
; on server FTP.INTERNIC.NET
; -OR- RS.INTERNIC.NET

A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600000 AAAA 2001:503:ba3e::2:30
;
It did not. I still got the connection time out error and when I assigned the dns server, my router disconnected from the internet. So thanks for your help everyone, but I'm gonna just use the regular pi-Hole setup and skip unbound for now.
Just donated on PayPal as well.
