Hi,
I am trying to change the DNS server on Android through Netguard.
The problem i am facing, is that Netguard is only able to change the DNS while i am on mobile data, and not when connected to
wifi on Excitel broadband.
I have tested many VPN apps that intend to change the DNS by way of establishing a dummy local VPN on android, and none of them are
able to effect a dns change (verify through DNS leak test)
The only app that thats able to do this is the cloudfare app, but then, i dont want its dns server, i want a custom dns server which
is not in scope for this app.
I contacted netguard dev, but he isnt very interested to have a look on this.
My request is, can any excitel users test this through netguard app? Steps are here. (refer point 4).
I guess, its something to do with excitel infrastructure, thats preventing this, as i tried this on 2-3 devices and all behave same, so its not os issue.
Moreover, as soon as i switch to another wifi(JioFi) netguard/(other dns changer apps) are able to effect the dns change.
Thanks.
