is mullvad dns struggling?
base.dns.mullvad.net is my goto for devices that I don't manage often, like for family, but the last few days it will randomly just not respond for a few minutes and then suddenly be fine. I haven't seen any news about it and their server status is just for their VPNs. Anyone else noticing this or have any info?
I have noticed similar issues recently and also suspect their DNS is to blame.
Next time it happens I'll try to toggle it off and back on, it's just been a few times over a few days but it will suddenly be all of the devices, even those on mobile networks for a minute or so and then it is fine for hours.
Can confirm, to a lesser extent. Each query takes a few seconds to resolve, which isn't a huge deal, except when browsing, so I set Adguard DNS within the browser.
I've had no issues so far. Response times have been relatively quick, nothing unusual.
Yeah I always turn off multihop and DAITA on my Mullvad thing, I know it's less secure but they absolutely murder my connection speed.
I have my network using it, no issues as of yet.
