Many https queries

NextDNS has just begun logging multiple queries to "https".  Thousands of queries which I would imagine are a drain on my wifi system.  There is no other information to the address other than "https" and I am not able to tell which device is making the queries.  I recently installed Eero Pro 6e routers in the house, so I am wondering if there may be something in their configuration to spawn that, but I haven't found anything.  Has anyone else experienced queries similar to this and can offer me some advice on where to look?

    Disregard.  I found the problem device.  It is a VOIP phone that is continually sending queries, multiple per second.  Not sure why it has all of a sudden started this when I switched routers.  I have reserved the IP address, restarted the device, tried ethernet and wifi no issues.  It may be time for a factory reset.

      maybe it lost the IPTV/VLAN settings it expected?

      Or, if it's querying "https", maybe it was configured for a particular DNS-over-HTTPS setting/provider you had enabled on your previous router, and can't connect properly any more?

      These are only wild guesses, though.
