Re: Horrible DNS latencies since yesterday - family is not happy.
Hi Olivier, Reporting back in. My NextDNS + Merlin 384.2_2 has been very stable since the above change to use RR:1. I too believe there is something wrong in DNSMSGQ when setup to use RR:0.…

@John DeCarlo I'm trying to figure out WHERE you created "a new DNS rule..." Is that on the router, in NextDNS, both, neither? I'm going to try going back to NextDNS.... Thanks.
