Getting pihole to work on my network
I am having issues accessing some websites when using the pihole as my dns server. It connects to most places, but for some reason I cannot access reddit, github, and a few other places. They are not on my block list either.
The DNS lookup seems to be working:
jone@phosphene notes $ nslookup reddit.com 14:17:00

But the browser times out every time when trying to access these sites. However, if I turn off the pihole dhcp server and use the router dhcp server, I can suddenly access these sites again.
