High Latency to gsl-akl / Routing to AU instead of NZ

Hi team

I recently signed up and have been loving the service, however it appears that gsl-akl (Auckland, New Zealand) is showing some extremely high latency so therefore DNS falls over to gsl-syd or vultr-syd instead.  (Tested on multiple ISP's in New Zealand to confirm not just limited to my ISP)

Just wondering if this is a known issue with gsl-akl as even testing via traceroutes as shown in the diag results this seems to route over to Syndey/Australia rather than New Zealand.

    I'm seeing the same behaviour. It looks like it started around the 14th sept

    ISP is Quic (ASN 64073)

    edit - has gsl-akl been removed? I'm not seeing a connection attempt to it at all

    @NextDNS I am also still seeing this problem. 

    Can you please check and investigate?

      Here you go - https://nextdns.io/diag/8232de20-66f0-11ee-a243-bb7cbe37edde

      It looks like there's no longer an anycast resolver in akl, which appears to be the underlying issue.

      The problem is that the only (new?????) AKL server "Zappie" is ultralow only now, I think? 

      The old AKL servers (gsl-akl) have disappeared?

       gsl's is currently in maintenance

      @NextDNS I've fixed it successfully with multiple alternatives in my router AVM Fritzbox7590:
