NextDNS is not working on the Ubiquiti UGC Ultra

I have UGC Ultra. I've follow the directions on Git Hub https://github.com/nextdns/nextdns/wiki/UnifiOS

All the CLI commands work and status from the CLI says NextDNS is running. Yet, my devices connected to the network still report Cloudflare as the DNS resolver. There are other options to set preferred or manual DNS in UnifiOS. Is the CLI the right approach? The iOS Profile/Client works fine. I don't want to have to install a NextDNS profile or client on every device.

    Just wanted to respond here and say that i'm having the same issue since the recent network Unifi / Ubiquiti Network App update (Network 9.3.43)

    I have a Unifi Dream Machine Pro Max and despite nextdns service running via CLI the nextdns console indicates switching between Cloudflare and Google as the DNS resolver.

    I just connected via SSH / CLI and updated to NextDNS 1.46.0 and that fixed my issue.

    Check to make sure your content filtering is disabled. Though in the new UI, that seems impossible. I left mine set to whatever it was before and things are working again, nextDNS console is reporting correct DNS resolver.

    I had this same issue and found that once I removed the content filter via Cybersecure>Content Filter, it started working.
