THG3000 router interface almost unusable

The user interface for my THG3000 is shockingly bad. It's very slow to connect and register clicks and keeps randomly refreshing the page when I'm halfway through changing a setting. It very often times out when I'm trying to make any changes. Is this normal for this router?

I believe double NAT would entail the use of either a STUN server along with port forwarding, or an external resolver. I think STUN would be the easiest if it works, I can't test as I've done away with it altogether.

Can I check - the Synology running the Pi-hole is assigned a static IP address of 192.168.2.15 from the router. I was planning on deleting all DCHP reservations on the router and going into the Synology's settings to give it the same static IP address. I was hoping to keep the Synology's IP address the same as I have lots of things pointed at it. Would it work if I gave the DHCP range for the Pi-hole as 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.254 which obviously includes the Synology's address?

@dwl99 Hold on, the NAS is on a different class C private address? Have you got two LANs?

Sorry, typo which I just noticed. The Synology IP address is 192.168.0.151 assigned by the router.

@dwl99  Assuming you want the NAS to always reside on 151, then on PiHole in DHCP settings under "Static DHCP leases configuration" you can supply MAC, IP address and hostname.

I turned off DHCP on the router and turned on DHCP in the pihole settings with the range 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.254, the NAS has a static address of 192.168.0.151 in its settings but I'm getting a pihole error message when I save the settings "There was a problem applying your settings.
Debugging information:
PHP error (2): fsockopen(): unable to connect to 127.0.0.1:4711 (Connection refused) in /var/www/html/admin/scripts/pi-hole/php/FTL.php:47"

Any suggestions?

Thanks

PS. There are quite a number of search hits for the error you posted.

Thanks, I did try that first, honest! I couldn't really follow any of the suggested fixes though.

PPS. The NAS address has to be reserved, particularly as it within the range you have setup for DHCP.
