Busybox 1.30.1-6 does not work correctly

nslookup easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org
Server:         127.0.0.1

as soon as I tried the url in my browsers (instead of trying it directly on the router cli) I get this:

nslookup easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org

and after like 10min its back to "No answer".

so its definitely my weird dns setup.
(which is like: dns requests are forwarded to the router port 53, where adblock uses dnsmasq as backend, which forwards all non-local addresses to port 5453 where stubby is waiting to us DOT to eventually resolve it)
so not an adblock issue. seems like a local dns request is not forwarded correctly. I'll try to figure out whats wrong - and update it here. Thank you again for helping me so far and putting me on the right track!

Try to stick with a single major DoT provider like Google or Cloudflare.
Remove IPv6 resolvers if your ISP doesn't provide IPv6 connectivity.
Reinstall/upgrade the packages:

opkg update; opkg --force-reinstall install ca-certificates stubby

I am using 9quad. ipv6 is disabled everywhere.

Do I need both? ca-bundle and ca-certificates? I switched now to cloudflare temporarily - but I keep getting the same result. If i query stubby directly on port 5453 I am not getting any answer for that domain even if get a valid answer on port 53 .. but do get one for domains like www.google.org - or others I have certainly not used..

/edit: nslookup and dig show different results.. suns getting real low ..
