Some questions...

Hello,

I find NextDNS very interesting, so I went around and thought I'd write an article. But I have some questions:

  • What's the use of the linked IP? (I have two vDSL, so two public IPs + 1 failover in 4g). It means that I'm not on the linked IP, I lose the benefit and I switch back to standard DNS?
  • Windows DNS server doesn't support DNS over TLS as forwarders, so it's unusable if the IP changes (Yoga is not really a viable alternative).
  • If I use DNS over HTTPS on a cell phone, does it make the linked ip jump off my desktop?
  • Unless the linked iP is used to restrict subscription?
  • DNS over HTTPS works on Opera, Edge (Chromium MS) and blocked on Chrome or Brave on the grounds that these browsers would be managed, which is not the case?
  • French community welcome ;-)

Merci !

    Link IP is only useful if you need to use plain old unencrypted DNS on port 53 with IPv4. All other setup solutions do not need link IP. 
     

    Check https://help.nextdns.io/t/m1hmv0k/which-setup-type-to-use for more info.

      Thank you Olivier Poitrey ,
      I've made a lot of progress in my tests, but it would have been cool to answer the other questions....

      Lionel most your questions are about link IP. The link provided should answer all of them, directly or indirectly.

      Olivier Poitrey If you read what I wrote on my blog the CLI doesn't work under Windows 2019 (and probably in w2016). On the other hand it works in w2008r2.
