EDNS - ECS problem
Hi everyone,
I’ve been having an issue with NextDNS's "Anonymized EDNS Client Subnet" feature. When it’s enabled, my subnet ip advertised is from São Paulo, even though I’m located in Brasília. Here’s what I’ve found:
Steps to Reproduce:
Run this command to query a DNS record using NextDNS’s ECS server:
dig +tcp +nocomment chaos google.com @ecs-test.nextdns.io
Here’s part of the output I received:
;google.com. CH A
google.com. 299 IN A 142.251.135.206
device-id.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "XXXX"
profile.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "xxxxxxxxxx"
client.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "189.61.51.xx"
client-name.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "dnscrypt"
device-model.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "Cloud Gateway Ultra"
proto.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "DOH"
server.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "edgeuno-bsb-1"
device-name.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "Ubiquiti"
smart-ecs.nextdns.io. 299 CH TXT "177.32.0.0/24"
As you can see, the ECS subnet 177.32.0.0/24
is located in São Paulo, even though I’m in Brasília.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Is there a way to fix the ECS location accuracy without disabling the feature?
Thanks

Currently, except for the US which sends ECS according to the states, in other countries, ECS is only sending according to your carrier. I had a problem in Ho Chi Minh City but sent ECS in Hanoi https://help.nextdns.io/t/g9haf2j#g9yzkp9
