NextDNS successfully added to router, but my devices are still not blocking ads/content

Hi there, so I changed my DNS settings on my Orbi R50 using both IPV6 and IPv4.

For some reason IPV6 was not working so I used IPV4 instead (while keeping the IPV6 settings) and that did trick.

I rebooted my router but my iPhone's and iPad's (connected to my wifi) are still not connected to nextDNS.

I get nextDNS has apps for iOS but I was under the assumption any device connected to my router would get the benefits of nextDNS.

Any advice? FWIW I did click on 'LinkedIP' within nextDNS.

Also disabled Apple's private relay option

    Do you have apple private relay enabled on your apple devices?

    From your iOS, what is the output of https://test.nextdns.io

      NextDNS I did have private relay enabled, but disabled it. 
       

      still seeing an issue where my devices (when my NextDNS app is off) is still able to access sites that I’ve explicitly restricted in the parental control category.
