Nextdns, dnsmasq dns, wifi calling issues on Openwrt

Using OpenWrt 23.05.3

When I enable caching, I notice that my wifi calling stops working and I don't think the dnsmasq dns is disabled because I can see it still monitoring port 53

Is there a manual way to check if everything is working?

So, now I don't enable cache

    Have you solved it? I also encountered the same problem. I saw that some people were setting the DHCP option, and I set it according to this, but it seemed not to work either.

    i tried this and for now it is fine:

    set dnsmasq just like you want to set Nextdns only via dnsmasq(you can see it on setup page):

    no-resolv
    bogus-priv
    strict-order
    server=XXXX:XXXX::
    server=XX.XX.XX.XX
    server=XXXX:XXXX::
    server=XX.XX.XX.XX
    add-cpe-id=XXXXXX

    then add the address#port in it like:

    no-resolv
    bogus-priv
    strict-order
    server=127.0.0.1#XXXX
    server=XXXX:XXXX::
    server=XX.XX.XX.XX
    server=XXXX:XXXX::
    server=XX.XX.XX.XX
    add-cpe-id=XXXXXX
    add-mac
    add-subnet=32,128

    then restart dnsmasq and cli  both.

    try it bro. I dont know if this is reliable,but for me . it is fine for now.
