Pi-hole: Every request is listed with client "USG-Pro-4"

[Brovning]

Hello,

first a big thank you for your scripts!
It was very easy to make the Pi-hole running as DNS in my network.

Unfortunately every request is listed with the client "USG-Pro-4".
How can I change the configuration of my USG or Pi-hole, so that the real client IPs/hostnames are listed in the Pi-hole logs?

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Brovning

Your client DNS is pointing at the USG (eg. 192.168.x.1) instead of pointing at the Pi-Hole (192.168.x.x).

In simple terms the USG is acting as a DNS proxy, so your clients are invisible to Pi-Hole.

Change the client DNS settings to point directly at the Pi-Hole.
