So is it .1 or .111?
So you set your DNS to the fritzbox, but to what DNS server is the fritzbox dispatching your DNS requests? Did you change any DNS settings on the fritzbox or do you use your ISPs DNS server?
IP Adress from the main Fritzbox 192…1
IP-Adress from the second Fritzbox 192…45
DNS Server 192…111, but now i have switched to 192…1, because i thought it´s better for the installation.
I have no DNS settings changed. I use the basic settings.
When it still worked before the reinstallation, I had set the Diet PI with Pihole as the DNS server. Before the reinstallation it had the IP 192…84, but now it was assigned 192…111. I set the IP address to static and allowed port sharing.
ok for clarification and how it should work
Router 192.168.x.1
DietPi 192.168.x.111
The following settings must be made
FritzBox:
DHCP server setting > DNS > 192.168.x.111
DietPi
Local network IP settings > STATIC (not DHCP)
local IP address 192.168.x.111
gateway 192.168.x.1
dns 9.9.9.9
Done
Do not point DNS for a device hosting PiHole to itself. Why? To avoid exactly this behavior. Always use a global public DNS server on the system hosting PiHole or AGH.
what should be the benefit of this setting?
