Change the country of the nextdns server

Alex i can only help here

Seth 

is there a way to override and specify country - the anycast is very annoying when on mobile roaming

p19qx52cgkst Unfortunately with Anycast it automatically routes your traffic to the closest server, there is no way to manually select a country but doing so would make no positive difference to your latency. Why do you want a specific country? It will not affect speed.

Seth  it would make a lot of difference as EU telcos use home IPs when roaming instead of local. Also affects streaming. 

p19qx52cgkst What specific server do you want to connect to? DoT / DoH?

UK but US would also be useful. DoH or DoT in theory both ok Although also would need the dnsleak fixed.  Dnscrypt would be nice. 

p19qx52cgkst Write a specific server ping. nextdns. io . For example "zepto-fra" or "hetzner-hel" etc.

p19qx52cgkst Ok. 

UK

Example "vultr-lon" (London) https://i.imgur.com/d2E5OoN.png

Determining the server address:

Open "cmd" (windows)

Enter: "nslookup vultr-lon-1.edge.nextdns.io"

As a result, we get the ipv4 address: "209.250.226.191". This is the server address "vultr-lon"

For DoT: 

DNS server address: 209.250.226.191

TLS domain name: xxxx.dns.nextdns.io

*xxxx it's your nextdns ID

Putting this (for example) into the router.
Find out which server we are connected to test.nextdns.io

For DoH:

Example "vultr-lon" (London)

https://vultr-lon-1.edge.nextdns.io/xxxx

*xxxx it's your nextdns ID

USA 

Example "zepto-lax" (Los Angeles) https://i.imgur.com/ioGGghN.png

Open "cmd" (windows)

Enter: nslookup zepto-lax-1.edge.nextdns.io

As a result, we get the ipv4 address: "209.209.59.227". This is the server address "zepto-lax"

For DoT: 

DNS server address: 209.209.59.227

TLS domain name: xxxx.dns.nextdns.io

For DoH:

"zepto-lax" (Los Angeles)

https://zepto-lax-1.edge.nextdns.io/xxxx

*xxxx it's your nextdns ID

*Having found out the IP addresses of the servers, you can check the ping to them.

cmd (windows)

ping 209.209.59.227

I don’t see how that helps? UK anycast are routing to Hong Kong 

nextdns need to provide a solution to force routing 

p19qx52cgkst 

p19qx52cgkst said:

 You should have written about it right away! In this case, contact nextdns support.

In case of incorrect routing, run the program and publish the result for the support service

TonnaKoll yeah, the @nextdns support team doesn't seem to respond.
I have similar problem, DoT routes to PoP server in Brisbane, while I'm in Melbourne and NextDNS have quite a few PoP's here. I can NOT fix with DoT onto those local PoPs and have NextID active.
