Mod note: Split from AGH guide due to irrelevance. - kp69

I noticed another strange thing in the query log... there are more than 40,000 requests for my other extender:

a.root-servers.net
Type: A, Plain DNS

(look the screenshot)

🤔

in fact my extender is from TP-Link, I found this searching online:

https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/bye-bye-a-root-servers-net-from-my-tp-link-router/14294/7

Now I don't know whether to block the domain a.root-servers.net or not...

Yet another tangent split out of that thread. Keep the discussion related to the guide, please. Thanks.
