Slow dns resolution

I'm using NextDNS since 2021 at home.

Recently I have some problem that stop completely the DNS resolution. it's happens in the last week many times every day. 

The connection is ok because I can ping servers like 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8. So I created a lab env. All the computers use NextDNS except one. This computer use cloudflare (1.1.1.1). 

When all the other computers stop, the other works without problem.

I've already run the diagnostics tool several times. 

Thanks in advance!
Luca

    Hi Luca Zammarchi, that looks complicated.

    Try YogaDNS? Or are you using the NextDNS official app for Windows? Because is buggy.

    I was used to using it but after some days it just stops working, and I had to reinstall it, so I switched to YogaDNS since it's open-source.

    As far as I know, DNS is not used to ping an IP address because you are pinging an IP directly. So when you ping a domain, your device ask the DNS what's the IP address, and then it pings the IP address.

    I hope I helped someway, let me know!
