NextDNS breaks when using DNSSEC with Asus Router

Hello,

Since last night it seems that NextDNS breaks when  enabling DNSSEC support on ASUS router.
Model: TUF-AX3000 V2 (gnuton merlin build)
Config:
- Enable DNSSEC support: Yes
- Validate unsigned DNSSEC replies: Yes
Disabling DNSSEC support seems to do the trick.
I had these router and NextDNS (security settings, privacy lists, etc) configs for months and there was no problem. There was no software update on the router. Suddenly, it no longer works.

The only weird thing that I noticed is that now there are a ton of these entries in Analytics:

Has anyone else noticed a similar issue recently?

    I’m experiencing exactly the same issue after updating my ASUS router. In my case, it’s an ASUS RT-BE92U.

    As a workaround, I manually configured the NextDNS IP addresses under LAN > DHCP Server and set “Advertise router’s IP in addition to user-specified DNS” to No.

    This seems to have resolved the issue for me. Of course, the downside of this workaround is that DNS traffic is no longer encrypted.

    Hopefully this helps someone else experiencing the same problem.
