pihole-r6-long-load-time

Ever since running pihole I noticed the time it takes to load into the game menu in r6 siege for me took twice as long compared to my friends. Turns out there was one DNS request that was getting blocked. It may not be the same DNS query as you but my advice for troubleshooting is go to 'tail pihole.log' and then launch the game to see all requests coming in. After that go to 'Query Log' and filter by your computer's IP address and see what DNS is getting blocked (sent to gravity list).

This is the DNS that was getting blocked causing the long load for me: 'd20i5e3rqc90ne.cloudfront.net'

After whitelisting it now the load issue has been resolved.
