Data stops working on Sky Mobile UK with iPad (Both app and config file)

I’ve been using NextDNS for years and just got a cellular iPad on Sky Mobile in the UK. I’ve figured out that when I have NextDNS enabled via a config file or via the iOS app, my mobile data no longer works. I thought it was an issue with the mobile network but if I remove NextDNS, the cellular connection works great. Has anyone else had this and managed to find a fix?

    I hope it is not because of Sky Mobile putting in some sort of enforced requirement to use only their DNS servers.

    Did you try connecting to mobile data while NextDNS was off/disabled, then once connected enable NextDNS? Does the data stop the moment NextDNS is switched on?

       Have just tried that, the data does stop working as soon as I enable NextDNS. They run off O2 so would be interesting to know if this happens with users on O2 as well.

      O2 are using a different APN so they may not have the same restrictions as Sky Mobile seem to have.

    I have installed a Quad9 profile and that seems to be working fine on data. Shame Next DNS isn’t working
