Hi,

I just installed pi-hole and that works, but when i enable DHCP Server it doesn’t give any ipaddress to the clients.

I think it can have something to do with the ipaddress i changed for Umbrel from dhcp to static. I changed the ipaddress in dhcpcd.conf.  
sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf

After that i installed pi-hole and that works, but when i enable DHCP server it doesn’t work.

when i look at the network overview i see 2 strange ipaddresses which i don’t understand. Can someone perhaps explain what the addresses are for?
