Having an odd issue with DNS not resolving for one hostname from one client.
I've got this setup:
cable modem -> pfSense (2.3.2-RELEASE-p1) -> internal network
Inside the network I have a piHole running on an RPi3 and all systems
get a statically mapped DHCP address (from pfSense) and the piHole is
set to be DNS. piHole uses pfSense as it's upstream DNS so all all
internal hostnames resolve locally from piHole/pfSense, outside
hostnames come from dnsmasq on piHole or pfSense.
On my iPad when connected to the WiFi I cannot resolve the IP for our
local newpaper's website, all other hostnames seem to resolve just
fine. That newpaper site resolves for other clients on the internal
network with no problem including an iPhone on the WiFi. As soon as I
turn the iPad's WiFi off and connect via Verizon LTE it sees the
newspaper site just fine.
Only the one wireless device is showing this problem so far. Nothing on
the wired network, and not the other three wireless devices.
I've turned on DNS forwarder on pfSense and DNS resolver, but I really
don't think it's either of those because I'm not seeing the problem on
anything but the one iPad.
I'm fairly new to pfSense but not to general networking so this one has
me stumped at the moment. I have looked into using pfBlockerNG instead
of pihole but I'd rather figure this problem out first. If anyone has
suggestions on what might be wrong and how to fix I'd appreciate it.
