NetworkManager allows you to set it to get your IP address by DHCP, but 
set your DNS manually.  Have you tried that?

Joe,

That works fine for a single machine. What I'm trying to alter is the whole home DHCP configuration's Primary DNS address so that all clients point to the Pi-Hole. If I can resolve the WiFi conflict, that's simple to do in the EdgeX router's DHCP service configuration. Unfortunately I'm not there yet.
