      Hi,
      As I know that many people are changing to cloudfare for the speed i was running some nslookups on pfSense and makes no sense howcome google is faster as my 3rd DNS and the primary DNS which is 1.1.1.1 wont look? See picture.

      Thank you

        Thank you for confirming the fact the their primary DNS is not responding to DNS Queries. This might be a temporary issue. According to many articles their Service is faster that Google's servers. They may be experiencing an outage.

            That is odd since I can ping it just fine.

                This has been asked & answered a dozen times since the weekend.  pfBlocker is the culprit.  It uses 1.1.1.1 for some internal stuff under the assumption that address would never be used.

                  Not just pfBlockerNg, seems like 1.1.1.1. is not working well for some people according to reports I'm seeing.

                    I can't imagine that Cloudflare is having resource issues when their whole business model is DDoS protection.  I wonder what is going on?  And why would their secondary address work just fine?  Strange.

                      Thanks for the replies, its odd that if ping 1.1.1.1 whether its using pfblocker or not i should get a response. But the secondary DNS works fine very odd
