Change DNS location

Good day everyone,

I would like to know if it is possible to change my location to kuala lumpur as currently the DNS is pointing to anexia- lon as provided with the screen shot. I hope to hear from you soon. 

Thank You

      The peering with Telekom Malaysia in Singapore has been added. Could you check if the latency is better now?

    I have already for a few weeks the same issue @nextdns
    The router.nextdns.io issues mostly server IP's who are in Brisbane

    119.252.95.133 (DoT-encrypted) and 144.208.222.195 and NONE anymore in IPv6 

    while I'm always in Melbourne MEL where you also have multiple POP's this is my closest: 

    {"locationName": "🇦🇺 Melbourne, Australia", "pop": "gsl-mel", "rtt": 5463}

    I also see the similar errors when doing the ping.nextdns.io

    Please have a look: https://nextdns.io/diag/f3c9f7f0-bf2c-11ee-84b8-8721dfc6bf21

    I need help with this again as I have noticed since last week, the ping is switching between vultr-ams, anexia-lon, zepto-sin and lightnode-kul. Is it possible to lock it permanently to anexia-kul as currently I am having pings of up 200ms as per the screenshot below

    I hope you can help revert on this asap as I have no choice to revert to another alternative and at the same time I am subscribed to NEXTDNS.

    Thank You

      Provide a diag https://nextdns.io/diag

      Also you are using an Anycast connection, is it possible to switch to an ultralow connection?

       hello there and thank you for getting back. Sure, it is possible to switch to ultralow if it helps with the ping. The question also here when I was doing the ping test, been noticing it connecting to amsterdam and london which has been spiking the ping. Anyhow, here is the diag that you requested for: https://nextdns.io/diag/002e8fd0-f823-11ef-b279-ef50434e056f

       may I know if there are any updates on this? I'm still connected to vultr-ams and ping is still high 

      Looking forward to hearing from you

      I cannot help you with the anycast routing, you will have to wait for NextDNS staff to implement a change.

      You can however improve ping by switching from anycast to ultralow. How have you setup to use NextDNS?

       hello there. My mistake on that as I may have taken you as a NextDNS staff. As for the setup, I have set it from router and have both IPV4 and IPV6 to the given DNS adresses in the selected NextDNS profile. I am also currently running DOT for this setup. I have been running this since 2022

    If your router does not support encrypted DNS, but only fills in the anycast IP address (45.90.28.x/45.90.30.x), it will always go to an international server. And with anycast servers, there will always be servers near and far from your country, it depends on the network you are using.

    I am in Vietnam, using Viettel network, so anycast 1 always routes to Hong Kong and anycast 2 sometimes goes to Taiwan, Japan and even Europe. But I use encrypted DNS, using ultralow servers in Vietnam.

    P/s: But if I use VNPT network, both routes go to 2 anycast servers, Singapore and Korea.
