Pihole suddenly stopped receiving DNS requests overnight
Post Body

Hi looking for some help with my pihole configuration. It was working perfectly fine yesterday but checking my pihole queries, at around 3am when gravity updated, pihole was no longer receiving requests from the devices. Looking at the dashboard, it was a significant drop in DNS requests. Funny thing is that my smart devices such as wyzecam and firestick are still sending requests which is what I am finding odd. Looking for some help if possible.

I have a TP Link Archer A7

Debug log: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/PfkLqJ7U/

Thanks

Edit: Looking at the audit log around when the requests stopped, I'm seeing this ipv4only.arpa as the last request

Edit2: I think this has to do with my router configurations for ipv6. I can now see network requests from other devices after disconnecting and reconnecting the wifi. I resolved this by setting a static ipv6 DNS address for pihole (grabbed from the debug log) instead of ticking the option for "Get dynamically from ISP".

I was looking through my router logs and saw that it was resolving the network requests for ipv6 instead of the pihole as expected.
