Is 1.1.1.1 hardcoded or is there somewhere I change this? I happen to stumble upon the DNS log in HA - yes, I’m still a relative noob to HA. I might be an edge case, but I direct all outbound DNS traffic to my pfSense box. This seemed to cause all sorts of problems which disappeared once I allowed the requests to actually hit 1.1.1.1 instead of redirecting them.
It’s not hard coded, just the default. You can change it.
At the home assistant cli:
ha dns options --servers dns://IP_ADDRESS
ha dns restart

Jeez, I can’t believe I never thought of that. I’ve restarted DNS before, but I just wouldn’t have thought that solution on my own. And as an update on what I did with redirect is change it to only redirect port 53, but leave 853 alone.
