internet-pi VS docker-pihole-unbound

I use this to monitor my internet connection, it's originally designed for a raspberry pi but it will run on any Linux machine thanks to docker https://github.com/geerlingguy/internet-pi

For example, you’re probably receiving bad service from your provider. Run fast.com and post the results (run the “show more info” option). You may also consider running ongoing monitoring to compare over time. I use this app on a Raspberry Pi: https://github.com/geerlingguy/internet-pi

i am having issue with when i am using my rpi4 (where pihole is installed) as my DNS server, it shows only my ISP's DNS on the clients side when i checked it with websites like https://www.top10vpn.com/tools/what-is-my-dns-server/. Where in my pihole settings, i set it to be using DNS's google, in the query log i can see the status shows that is answered by google#53 . but when i change my client's DNS server directly to google DNS, it shows both my ISP's DNS and Google DNS on the DNS checker website. i followed the link here to install pihole https://github.com/geerlingguy/internet-pi , which i believe is installing pihole and grafana inside a docker. Above also attached some screenshots from my pihole GUI.

hi there i forgot to tell u that i might be installing the pihole inside a docker, i followed the steps here https://github.com/geerlingguy/internet-pi . when i use "dig" command on my client terminal it shows the DNS ip address "127.0.0.1" is this what might be affecting my DNS config?

I'm running the chriscrowe 'one container' build for pihole for ad-blocking (https://github.com/chriscrowe/docker-pihole-unbound), and unbound for private recursive DNS which is running great on my Zima board.

I believe my problem stems from when I tried to install the pihole-unbound container (https://github.com/chriscrowe/docker-pihole-unbound)

I've got lucky enough that I could get in Nov-19 a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB of RAM that I use as a NAS+Pi-Hole + Unbound +Other stuff (running Void MUSL of course) and instead of an SD I use an HDD for the OS + a 5TB HDD for the data and even fully loaded all cores it barely consumes more than 22W.

I was only able to get pihole macvlan approach working with an ssh access + docker-compose approach. I used the crowe one-container approach Still had to enable Open vSwitch for the network in Synology first.

You can follow the doc to do those install steps within your own Dockerfile. Or you can use the commonly recommended chriscrowe image, which does what I’m describing.

When I started experimenting with this topic chriscrowe's was a baseline for stuff that I tryed out, so kudos to chris!

It seems you’re looking at a wrong file. Here is a docker file for one-container solution: https://github.com/chriscrowe/docker-pihole-unbound/blob/55c88afaf8d76958923adc38f4c12a80e1cb9084/one-container/pihole-unbound/Dockerfile

2) you can use something like this maintained GitHub repo. Just decide if you want to use 1 or 2 containers and modify the ip and gateways, etc accordingly.
