DNS Forwarding

[jackson05]

Hello, I have a firewall where my dns only works with options
"Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP / PPP on WAN"
and "Enable Forwarding Mode" active what could it be?

Your ISP is blocking all DNS traffic except to their own servers perhaps? For some nefarious purpose....

Try enabling Use SSL/TLS for outgoing DNS Queries to Forwarding Servers and setting servers that support that.

Read the contract, or consult the net, and you'll have your answer.

.... and check if the ISP doesn't block port 853.

@jackson05 : assure-me : you don't want to use 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1, right ?

You should be able to use anything you want, be it resolving directly or Google DNS or something else.

As far as I could verify my internet provider is forcing the resolution of names in your DNS
