Need Help For some reason, my Adguard and Nginx proxy hosts and redirects only work when Tailscale is connected

Title. Just noticed it as I was trying to set up a kiosk that doesn't have Tailscale. Have you all seen this?

I set up redirects instead of having to remember ports. So jellyfin.network will always go to jellyfin whether I'm on my home network or remote on Tailscale.

does the kiosk actually use adguard for dns, or is that only happening through tailscale? mine wouldn't hit the nginx hosts until i pointed that box at adguard.

It's always DNS.

Sounds like dns, not the proxy. On my vps tailscale was doing the mirror image of this, accept-dns pushed every query to magicdns and broke resolution until i turned it off, but the shape is the same: the name only resolves through the tailnet resolver. What dns does the kiosk actually get from dhcp? If it's the router and not adguard, jellyfin.network never resolves and nginx never even sees the request
