    I have a DNS server running for my home lab with conditional forwarding from pihole. Then i only pass the internal DNS to a WLAN that doesn’t need external access (locally controlled IoT devices for example).

      So some WLAN devices just can’t make any DNS requests that are outside your LAN, correct? But what if they use a hardcoded ip, wouldn’t that circumvent everything?

        Port 53 going to the internal dns? Nope? Drop! Same rule you would use everywhere else to push all dns to your preferred dns server.

        Static routes are also a great way but I’m not familiar enough with your setup or static routes to explain. Pihole can also have groups which can apply different rules, lists etc.
