<![CDATA[[Resolved] Cloudflare Stopped Working with pfSense]]>I started to notice this yesterday, but today Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) stopped resolving external DNS.

Has something changed with Cloudflare and pfSense 2.4.3? I had to change my primary DNS (General>DNS Servers) to 8.8.8.8 to get external DNS to resolve correctly again.

Cloudflare has been working flawlessly until today using the instructions posted here:

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brent

Indeed, a CenturyLink issue that they have now corrected.

It's a CenturyLink issue.  :(

  - address_data:  1.0.0.1
    tls_port: 853
    tls_auth_name: "cloudflare-dns.com"

that address being 1.0.0.1 -  see full list of TLS Servers here -  https://dnsprivacy.org/wiki/display/DP/DNS+Privacy+Test+Servers

You can and should also check real time status of DNS Privacy Servers as they are experimental and are not always stable - you can monitor DNS TLS Servers Real Time Status here below:
