1 out of 3 Windows 11 computers "using NextDNS with no profile." with nextDNS configured on DD-WRT router
Everything was working fine for 3 household computers but suddenly only the two desktops are using nextdns and the laptop is now "using NextDNS with no profile."
Dell computers, nextDNS installed on DD-WRT.
- Original setup - used it setup under DNSmasq
- Troubleshooting setup - setup using smartDNS - issue remained identical - 2/3 working 1/3 not working.
- laptop is set to use DHCP settings, no manual DNS settings that I can find (IPv4 settings)
- DD-WRT router setup to block IPv6
No idea how the Windows 11 laptop is circumventing the DD-WRT settings

Also just tested nextDNS / DD-WRT CLI install again... same result. Desktop's good.... laptop "not using profile".

Ok... figured a solution out even if it's a little brute force.
I just deleted every saved "{*interface-UUID*}" from window's registry as described below as none of the 15 entries seemed to be an obvious culpret. Network stayed connected, and nextDNS immediately started working again.
