Pihole and DNS requests (self.eero)

Not sure if this ever got solved, but I’m running Pihole on my network and eero for gateway, routing, Wi-Fi, and dhcp functions. The gateway address (i.e. 192.168.0.1) is the only one that shows up in the pihole logs.

I have DNS Caching off on my eero configuration, and I’ve got conditional forwarding on on the pihole config.

Anything else I can do to have the individual IPs actually make requests to the pihole without being intercepted by the eero?

Ah. I’ve got 5s. Didn’t realize it was abandoned tech, so I feel even better about it. I’ll just have to start taking more softly around my lightbulbs.

Yeah, starting with the latest models. The 6E Pro and 6 Plus I think. Will have to turn it off this weekend and see if that fixes my issue.
