    Hi, I Installed NextDNS on my router and now I can't connect to my wifi printer (Brother MFC-J5330DW). The printer is connected to the same Internet, but the computer does not see it. It worked before installing NextDNS on the router. Is there a way to fix that?

       If using the CLI version, try setting detect-captive-portals to true.

        I didnt use CLI as my router is from the internet service company. I just updated the DNS.

       Ah, ok. If you only changed the dns addresses I don’t see how that could have stopped connecting to your printer.

      You may have to redo the setup process for your printer, for connecting to WiFi.

    I have sort of same problem:

     

    When I want to print (direct-wifi) then I have to toggle off NextDNS App, else it will not work.

    printer is NOT connected to Wifi-LAN.
