Resolving an unusual WiFi issue

Not ARP storms per se, But I've noticed new Apple devices don't like router forwarding port 53 to pihole, resulting in bonjour storm and crashing pihole instances(Loosing DNS for the entire network).

If you can crash dns this way, please report it, its worthwhile fixing.

I'll try, Didn't have good experience with my earlier bug reports to Apple and now I'm completely out of that ecosystem. In fact I found this issue when my guests have iOS devices.

Anyways here's the regex blacklist I use in PiHole to prevent Apple's reverse DNS spam -

  ^(?:(?:\d+\.)*\d+(?:-in\.addr\.arpa\.)?)$
