SOLVED: After examining the output of pihole -g again I noticed [✓] Parsed 3 exact domains and 0 ABP-style domains (blocking, ignored 1467 non-domain entries) I investigated the link ans saw I accidentally gave the github link instead of the raw file, I changed https://github.com/autinerd/anti-axelspringer-hosts/blob/master/axelspringer-hosts to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/autinerd/anti-axelspringer-hosts/refs/heads/master/axelspringer-hosts and now it works!

I set up my first pi hole yesterday! However I am running into a minor problem, some queries are not blocked.

I have two lists configured:

• first one if for blocking services related to facebook
• the second one is for blocking websites related to Axel Springer Media, which is a far right news agency in Germany

Both

I have a Raspberry Pi 02W running Pi-Hole and ordinarily things work perfectly, but I've got something in my house tripping my fuse box which I'm unable to locate. The tripper, not the fuse box. Anyway, what it means is occasionally, I lose power and so my router and my Pi-Hole go down.

I've configured my /etc/dhcpcd.conf so that my RPi02W can have a static IP

 undefined

    
interface wlan0
static ip_address=192.168.1.100/24
static routers=192.168.1.1
static domain_name_servers=194.168.4.100 194.168.8.100


  

And have rebooted to confirm it's fine, and it's fine.

However when the router goes down and I bring everything back up, the Pi-Hole can't reconnect to the router. I can log in to the router and see it connect briefly, but it's only briefly and then nothing. I even try enabling DHCP on the router and it still refuses to reconnect. Ultimately the only way to get it to reconnect is to factory reset the router,
