Excitel Broadband is now allowing some DNS servers including Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 and OpenDNS

Some of the providers do, not all. Actually, my peering/CDN usage is not affected at all by the use of external DNS as that is usually destination IP based. Higher than plan bandwidth offered on peering remains intact for me. I suspect It's mostly for serving from cache that ISPs force their dns.
 
yeah. i haven't faced much problems using NextDNS here. get great speeds on peered services just fine on excitel. and i do not think they have a local/peered server.
 
@Sushubh Of course not. I didn't think it was necessary to elaborate that you'd need client apps to enable DoH on Windows, iOS, Android.

Linux is, of course, different, it can be enabled on the kernel space.

Windows 10 will, after all, support DoH natively anyhow.
 
Yeah. Android 9+ has native support. Though some asshole companies like Xiaomi hide the setting.

Windows 10 support is coming but I am not sure about implementation. They are going to 'automatically' switch to private dns if the user entered value has support for encrypted dns.
 
I noticed that 1.1.1.1 is now going via extremeIX Bombay to 1.1.1.1 directly. Reducing ping by a lot.
