NextDNS won't work on OpenWrt 24.10.2

Greetings,

after upgrading my OpenWRT router from 23.05.5 to the latest version, NextDNS stopped working. When

I connect to my NextDNS account, I can see that no traffic is tunneled towards NextDNS and my Router uses my default DNS Provider.

I use the latest NextDNS client on my router (1.45.0) and from what I can tell, the log looks fine after a fresh reboot:

Some specialties on my end that might effect this results:

This didn't affect NextDNS under OpenWRT 23.05, but I thought it might be worth mentioning.

 

Thanks in advance!
