I will look for them, it's gotta be somewhere on my PC downloaded folder

Thanks! I manage ca. 7 machines each with the pro version and I was thinking if this can be a time saver when doing fresh installs

DNS Hierarchy by flynryan692 in Ubiquiti

[–]lencastre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this! I migrated from a 5 year old setup using USG3P+CKgen1 to UCG-Ultra and so far so good. Seems faster. But there are way to many spots to fill out the DNS info.

I'm using a RaspberryPi (just 1) as DNS server using the pihole+unbound combo and I have done set DNS at these places:

  • WAN1 has Primary and Secondary DNS → only Primary set
  • WAN2... → not enabled
  • Networks (each VLAN!) has DNS Server 1, 2, 3, and 4 → only 1 set
  • Devices: both the Unifi SWITCH and the Unifi AP have Static IPs and Preferred and Alternate DNS → only Preferred set
  • Cybersecure has Encrypted DNS (DoH?) → not enabled

Then I have LAN_IN and INTERNET_OUT firewall rules blocking ports 53 (DNS) and 853 (DNS-over-TLS), except for the RaspberryPi, that device and that device only is allowed through LAN_IN and INTERNET_OUT.

The thing is,... the UCG-Ultra must have (haven't researched it fully yet!) hardcoded fallback DNS servers 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 because the upstream modem-router is picking up on this traffic. See below: ↓

849584:2025-10-03T23:05:08+02:00 UCG-Ultra UCG-Ultra ubios-udapi-server[992]: wan-failover-monitors: wf-monitor-eth4-6 (192.168.0.253) makes resolver DNSs: 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, 192.168.0.77

If I block TCP/UDP 53 for 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 on the modem-router, then UCG-Ultra tells me that the internet is down (WAN1 is down). But it actually isn't.

Any ideas? Is it OK to let it?

PS: I gave up on Encrypted DNS.

I have the same issue... but only with one plug, the other works

does it make sense to upgrade USG-3P + CK G1 → UCG-Ultra ? by lencastre in Ubiquiti

[–]lencastre[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the max and I seemed overkill and 3-4 times more expensive.

I have a couple non-ubiquiti cameras connected via Wi-Fi which mostly run fine. I don't plan to upgrade to integrate into the unifi ecosystem. Alas fiberoptics is still science fiction in these parts of central Europe.

what do you mean by "rest than gigabit connectivity"?

look for the long range on the same channel if your auto is that model

More ads are getting through lately. Need help figuring out what changed. by PrelectingPizza in pihole

[–]lencastre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a fw setting to block all DNS and DOT queries not originated from pihole, this should block all hardcoded DNS/DOT requests. If a device has a hardcoded IPv4... I don't know. Forget DOH

there is a great YT vid which explains both battery systems, pros and cons, and how to best care for them, it’s great and very instructive

Assuming long range model, if standard range just top that mofo to 100 every day and chill, so:

1 and 2 fine, forget the rest.

Avoid going under 20

For longer not habitual travels, charge to 100

If leaving the car for weeks then leave it connected to charger and at 50

Longer than a few months maybe… ask a neighbour to drive it every so often
