I am trying to figure out how to make unbound stop using my DNS server that
is on my backup internet.  I never want it to hit it ever unless the main
WAN goes down.

So the DNS forwarder can do this:

Query DNS servers sequentially If this option is set, pfSense DNS Forwarder
(dnsmasq) will query the DNS servers sequentially in the order
specified (*System
- General Setup - DNS Servers*), rather than all at once in parallel.

If I used the forwarder instead of the resolver, this might help, it should
get results from my two WAN DNS servers first.

Could I have the forwarder ask the resolver first and just configure the
resolver to query the WAN interface? Then branch from there?  Virtual
Interfaces?

I would like to stick with the resolver...any ideas?
