NextDNS is set on the router but NextDNS says it’s using Cloudflare instead.

Everything is set properly. I can even see web traffic from my devices in a way, I can only see trackers not websites. For all of you who don’t understand Dutch, the image is saying it’s not connected to NextDNS at all.

    It means your "Laptop" and/or "Browser" using Cloudflare public DNS

       Okay, how do I disable cloudflare on my browser/laptop? I thought that if i set NextDNS on the router it would automatically be on my device as well.

      But it looks like that isn’t the case is it?

      What is the difference between NextDNS on a device and a router?

      And do I actually have to download the NextDNS app?

      I leave my laptop network/DNS automatic. I just use nextDNS apps to handle my DNS and control it as I need on nextDNS dashboard. My sample set up on my laptop. The rest, depends on you.

       But can you explain why it’s not working on my router with everything set up properly…?

       I don't understand what you mean.. Did you access nextdns dashboard using router browser? handphone browser? or laptop browser? 

      The dashboard identify what device you use..

       I’m using the Brave browser on an iPhone right now. But how is that related to my original question? Just wondering. And how do I DM people?

       honestly, I personally think you should keep using safari on your iPhone and no other browsers. In my opinion, like Chrome, brave browser is a battery-guzzling application, but never mind.
      in your iPhone's settings under apps, you will have to go through the settings of Brave browser and disable secure dns there.

      Do you use a nextdns profile on the iPhone?
