      Running open version 2.5.1 on an HP box. pfBlockerNG does a great job blocking ads on LAN hosts. OpenVPN is configured and works fine, too. Trying to incorporate pfBlockerNG with OpenVPN to drop ads when on my mobile and connected to VPN, but every time I point OpenVPN DNS server to either the virtual IP of pfBlockerNG DNSBL (10.10.10.1), or to the IP of the pfSense install (192.168.0.1) my mobile (Android) browser says "That site can't be reached". If I uncheck OpenVPN > Servers > Edit Advanced Client Settings > "DNS Server Enable" the mobile connects (but shows ads). This is a personal device with one VPN user so I have also checked "Force all client-generated traffic through the tunnel".

      Any ideas what I have missed here? Thanks!
