      I had pfblocker working but when devices are using a vpn they predictably bypassed the dns blocker. I added a WireGuard connection to the router itself to have a whole home situation in hopes the dns traffic from WiFi would go through the pfsense dns resolution but doesn’t seem to work. Is there a way to get this to work? Am I missing a setting or is this not possible?

      Is there another solution? I’m trying to block adult sites and ads while trying to use proton vpn if at all possible in whatever fashion I can make it work.

        @rawkfist1501 Android uses google dns by default, apple devices probably something similar. You have to change it in the network-settings to use pfSense.
        No need for WireGuard and no help.

          @bob-dig hi, I’m not sure what you’re referring to. I have my devices getting dns settings from pfsense via dhcp and I’m not using WireGuard as a solution for anythjng but as a vpn from my router to a server and that’s what is creating an issue

            So you mean by policy routing in pfSense? I don't see how this should affect DNS. Maybe your policy-rules have a problem then by blocking DNS from pfSense.

              @bob-dig unfortunately that’s still not what I mean. I’m referring to dnsbl feeds in bfblocker blocking domains.
