AX3000 Manual DNS setting not taking effect
Good morning everyone. I am using a AX3000 as my main internal router with a AX2400 as a repeater for my downstairs basement. This setup has worked perfectly fine but something I found out the other ...
How did you verify that the Pi-hole DHCP is supplying these DNS servers through Option 6 of the DHCP Offer?
(I would do this by
- Connecting a Windows PC/laptop and then looking at the values shown by ipconfig /all
- or, using Wireshark to capture the actual DHCP conversation between computer and network. Display the DHCP packet and look at Option 6.

First off I was using ipconfig /all but then I checked a few things out. Long story short I ended up keeping my network seperate because my isp router which was a sagemcom wouldn't honor a dns server. I ended up with a split network and run my testing network by itself with the rasp pi device on it and that works with my netgear routers. Tons of troubleshooting and testing from android/IOS and Windows and this ended up being the best solution.
