    Waste of time reporting your statistics if they don't bother to reply. 

    Wasted money subscribing to NextDNS due to repeated instances of high latency or no connection (in between it been very good)

     

    There's a reason NextDNS don't have a "Service status" page.

      Olivier Poitrey Okay, it worked from another device: https://nextdns.io/diag/73ccd2c0-89d3-11eb-9842-b351f7e87eda

      However I have been getting less packet loss for half an hour. I should try a diag again when it's back.

      Stanislas are you also monitoring some other providers to rule out an issue with your own connection?

      Olivier Poitrey It seems to be better (so far)

      I had some latency spikes last night without loss, during which I run a mtr (ipv6):

    Ultra low for IPv6 is not working. And routing anycast 1 was too slow. Please check it! Thank you!

    Anycast 1 connet to zepto-mad https://nextdns.io/diag/25f81500-8de3-11eb-8a6e-3fd26ddfe68f

    Hello support team,

    I am facing network performance issues (especially in Multiplayer Online Games and with Audio / Video Streaming (e.g. Amazon Prime / Apple Music or Video). I am using a Peplink Balance Router with 2 WAN internet providers (Telekom DSL and Vodafone LTE) to gain enough speed at our countryside region in south-west of Germany close to the French border (slow bandwith region far away from bigger cities).  I am unsing 2 different nextdns-Profiles for every of the lines (having a separate dyndns address each).

    Can the problem maybe have todo with my location, as Nextdns seems to connect to DNS Servers at France insteand of German servers?

    I would appreciate, if you could please review the following logs.

    Diagnose results using Telekom: https://nextdns.io/diag/ba295220-93a1-11eb-ac31-f10bbd007106

    Diagnose results using Vodafone: https://nextdns.io/diag/ea674920-93a0-11eb-ac31-f10bbd007106

    Something I can do?

    Kind regards,

    ChrisK

      Olivier Poitrey : Thanks for explanation.

      Yes, when I activate my 2 provider‘s DNS servers (DHCP Auto Assign by providers router) or manually assign CloudFlare DNs Servers, I am not facing any issues.

      ChrisK please try without it. Also, if you are able to identify the hostname that is getting slower, it would be helpful. You can check the logs when you use the game and try pinging them with and without nextdns to see if there is a latency difference.
