Hi everyone, I am new to self-hosting a pi-hole, and have enjoyed it a lot so far.

However, since installing it and setting pi-hole as my DHCP (turning off the router’s own DHCP), I have been unable to let devices ‘speak’ to each other over the local network

Using KDE Connect, my laptop and phone have been unable to find each other since setting pi-hole as DHCP.

Similarly, with Localsend, devices can see each other, but are unable to send files complaining of ‘no route found’.

Below are my DHCP settings, and both devices I am trying to connect are listed under “Currently active DHCP leases” (cut out from the screenshot).

Have I maybe made any mistake in configuring my pi-hole?

The router’s admin page is 192.168.0.1 for me

Any tip will be greatly appreciated!
