##SetWifiDNS.ps1
##Gets the ip details of "wifi" net adapter, and if has 192.168.0, then it sets 192.168.0.2 to first DNS; 
##otherwise will just reset the DNS!!
##Needs error handling

If you get the error for port 53 being used when starting Pihole, you can disable dnsmasq using these commands:

virsh net-autostart --disable default
virsh net-destroy default
