NextDNS stamp not working with Ubiquiti router

Hi,

 

I recently bought a Unifi router and am trying to configure DNS routing directly onto it. I took the DNS stamp for DNSCrypt straight from the setup guide and put it into my router's DNS settings:

 Unfortunately, when I disable the NextDNS app on my computer, NextDNS doesn't see that I'm filtering DNS queries through it:

 It works fine when I have the app open, but obviously that means it's not working on the router level. Not really sure where I'm going wrong. I've even used DNSCrypt's stamp generator and have gotten the same issue.

    Don't call your custom entry "NextDNS". That conflicts with Unifi's own NextDNS entry. Use NextDNS-xxxxxx (where the x's are your profile ID) or even just your profile ID... something unique.

       , thanks for the response! That unfortunately also didn't work. I'm having some other issues with the router that I'm trying to work with Ubiquiti on, so this may just be a byproduct of that.

    Making a single identifier in Unifi are the first things.

     But then, you show us that information. 
     

    nextDNS tell you. You effectively contacted the dns. But you haven’t give him a profile. 
     

    when you used the DNSCrypt’s stamp generator, did you properly fill up the path section? 
     

    try ‘ test.nextdns.io ‘ that will give us diagnostic information.
