      Hey all,

      I have spent a lot of time reading through a lot of vpn and dns stuff. I am using nordvpn as my primary wan gateway.

      First question, because some dns leak test told me my dns is leaking. Would you go with the VPN provider dns or Cloudflare?

      I have activated the unbound dns reslver and created nat rules catching every request for port 53 and 853 redirecting it to 127.0.0.1. So hopefully no one can use outside dns server because the pfsense takes care of all.

      I have activated dnssec and dns over Tls (currently via Cloudflare). In the State view i see the States have been established with port 853 - that should be a good sign using dns over tls right?

      Thanks for your help
