      I reinstalled pfsense from the install image of netgate. Same issue. All the DNS-servers return "no response" on the firewall (no changes made on the settings). Nice extra problem: none of the clients can contact the dns servers, so they don't have any internet...

        After your restored your config I assume? The default install resolves as expected?

          I didn't restore my config. Default install doesn't resolve.

            Can you only connect to your ISP's modem / router?

              I can resolve any host on pfsense, but not on the clients after pfsense. Pfsense is making the connection with the modem.

                I was just wondering if you don't have some crazy ISP filtering ...

                So,

                Are the interfaces configured correctly in Unbound?

                and

                do clients' DNS point to pfSense?

                  Can you ping out from clients by IP?

                  Is Unbound actually running? Any errors in the resolver log?

                    Ok, I found the error. Selecting "ALL" in "Network interfaces" doesn't work, but when I select "LAN" and "localhost" it works.

                      That's not the default config, it's using DoT to cloudflare.

                      Does it resolve with the default config? Unbound resolving directly?

                          @DaddyGo Weird, I just put "ALL" again and now it works. I'll reinstall and try again.

                          @stephenw10 I'll reinstall and try again.

                            No, no, Unbound has to restart, it's such an animal

                              I want to know if you actually have to click on "ALL" in order to make it work. Because after I changed it to "LAN" and "localhost" it worked.

                                Don't forget that "ALL" includes the WAN!
                                Unbound always restarts anyway, see DHCP leases or pfBlockerNG lists reload, etc

                                  Then that would be the cause of my error. Weird because the default install of pfsense is "all"?

                                    For me, the first is to configure the network interfaces and I don't care about the default config...

                                    So I haven't even dealt with it yet

                                    btw:
                                    The pfSense DNS system is atom safe and works very well

                                      Mmm, listening for queries on 'all' should not be a problem. That's the default setting as you say.
                                      Queries cannot actually come into WAN unless you have added rules to allow it.

                                        It started working after I changed those settings and unbound restarted. This was the only option that changed.
