      Hi all,

      Hope everyone is well at this difficult time.

      I have followed the guide to setup redirect all DNS requests to pfSense. All working well acorss my clients apart from the Android phone which has a setting called 'Private DNS'. When I enter dns.google as the private DNS in the Android phone it completely bypasses the pfSense DNS and goes straight to 8.8.8.8 as seen from the diagnostics > states page.

      Can I redirect ALL DNS requests as the guide page suggests?

        @chrisgtl Yes, disable private DNS.
