I have about 40 devices in my home network and i see this message almost everyday. Please let me know, if you need any other information related to this. |
Is it not possible in your router to set the DNS server for the clients to Pi-hole via DHCP? That way all clients would directly query the Pi-hole rather than the router, which then forwards the requests to the Pi-hole. Rate limiting is also configurable: https://docs.pi-hole.net/ftldns/configfile/#rate_limit, but the better fix would be to adjust your network configuration if possible |
@PromoFaux, Thank you for responding.
Even though the Netgear (AX5200) router is configured to use the Pi-hole as the DNS server, it announces itself as the DNS server for the local hosts. I have included some additional information at the end. Related to the rate-limiting configuration, the default configuration is set globally for all local clients. That is the reason, I am recommending removing the restriction on the local router / DNS server.

Versions
Pi-hole version is v5.17.3 (Latest: v5.17.3)
web version is v5.21 (Latest: v5.21)
FTL version is v5.25.1 (Latest: v5.25.1)
Platform
Configuration
_ Pi-hole's IP address is configured as the ONLY DNS server in the router/gateway_
Expected behavior
DNS quires to pi-hole from the local DNS server of the network need not be considered for rate limiting.
Actual behavior / bug
_While considering rate-limiting per client basis on the local networks, the local router/gateway is also being rate-limited, when it is forwarding all received DNS queries to the pi-hole for resolution.
Consider NOT rate-limiting the gateway's DNS queries _
