Hi guys!

So, it seems I’m getting again stuck with my pihole, seems it might not resolve domains I know that are new to it… So, if I try to visit the website from my browser (firefox or ungoogle chromium), it gets a DNS failure. Same with a nslookup. But if I connect to the pihole and do a: dig saigoneer.com @127.0.0.1 -p 5335 I get the full response and resolution. But even in the pihole, attempting nslookup saigoneer.com will fail. Any idea what can I try next?

Thanks!

Have you checked if you’re rate limited? I was getting rate limited while downloading games from steam which took me several hours to debug.

Not sure if this is your problem but it might be a thing to check out.

Rate limited…by whom? I’m using unbound, so I’m not forwarding my DNS requests to my ISP.
