Yes. Just set your secondary dns in your client to whatever dns you were using before. It will fall back on secondary if primary dns via pihole fails.

- corv 8y agoSometimes the secondary will take precedence over the primary even though pi-hole is reachable.
- WaLLy3K 8y agoIn my experience, Windows is the worst offender for this. *Nix, macOS and iOS will always prefer the first resolver if all other variables (ping, availability, etc) are equal.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoI can't remember the details but something changed in Ubuntu defaults to make default to distribute the DNS calls rather than order nameservers, it can be set to use order preference. In short, don't assume strict ordering on Ubu, at least.
