Not working on Mac, with app: "This device is using NextDNS with no configuration."
Asus router config was not working for my Mac using the router CLI.
So now I'm trying the NextDNS app from App Store.
And I'm still seeing "This device is using NextDNS with no configuration."
The VPN is active and connected.
What's going on?

The Mac app appears as a pseudo-VPN in the Network sys pref panel

https://test.nextdns.io/ shows: { "status": "ok", "protocol": "DOH", "client": "172.250......", "destIP": "162.220.221.25", "anycast": false, "server": "anexia-lax-1", "clientName": "chromium-default" }

VPN and nextDNS are 2 very different things you either use one or the other
I don't not think both can work together?!Forget about the app on the mac I never really took to that try this below;
Set your ASUS router settings DNS servers as follows
- From the advanced menu on the left side, click WAN.
- Next to Connect to DNS Server automatically, click No.
- Add the DNS addresses as displayed in your nextDNS dashboard
You can also link the IP address of the router as described on your dashboard
Plus look at the mac setup guide: I have it woking on Catalnia
Use the Apple Configuration Profile Generator available at apple.nextdns.io. -
Are you using Chrome or Firefox? If yes, please make sure DoH is disabled from these.
