Randomly changing DNS resolvers

I am finding today that the Setup page for NextDNS is intermittently showing me as "All Good" or red and pointing to another DNS resolver as the issue.  My IP is linked and green in either case.

I did note that my Eero updated to version 6.15-1-140 overnight but the custom DNS settings remain intact.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

    I am having a similar problem. Anyone out there with ideas?

      David If you're using Eero, I might.  I first thought this was a NextDNS issue but as I said above, it only happened after the Eero update.  I ended up switching DNSs and tried out ControlD for a while.  When I came back to NextDNS all was stable.

      Then another Eero update this week...same thing started happening again.  I switched DNSs back to IP defaults and then back to NextDNS.  Seems stable since then.

      So I am guessing it's something on the Eero side but haven't pursued further (leaving well enough alone).

      Michael O'Shea Thanks, Michael. I'm not using Eero, I'm using a Motorola modem that doesn't have any recent updates as far as I am aware.
