So, anyone else is unable to use Google DNS and other DNS this month? What does DPI mean and how will it effect me?

I think someone mentioned that the DNS is hard coded into the router for Maxis Fibre users. Even if you change on the router/computer it does not take effect. I believe there is a guide on how to overcome this.

Its very weird. I was able to use google/open DNS until March this year. To test this, I bring my laptop to another location with UNIFI, and I am able to use the google DNS.

Anyone with Maxis Fibre experiencing the same problem? There was a post by a lowyat member in 2015 or 2016 saying he has same problem like mine.

I just checked at the coffee shop near my house. They are using Maxis Fibre. The router is a Technicolor TG784n v3.

Results same as those posted for Maxis Mobile. 8.8.8.8 working.

This is what I suspect. Is it possible for them to only block my account? IP is dynamic.

Bro, you're right but it's not just you. Most MCMC blocked sites are DNS blocked but there's additional blocking for said site by Maxis.

You can test yourself using https://ooni.torproject.org/nettest/web-connectivity/

Here're the results of one of the tests:
CODE
$ ooniprobe blocking/http_requests --url http://sarawakreport.org
Looking up your IP address via ubuntu
Found your IP via a GeoIP service
Starting Tor
5%: Connecting to directory server
10%: Finishing handshake with directory server
15%: Establishing an encrypted directory connection
20%: Asking for networkstatus consensus
25%: Loading networkstatus consensus
40%: Loading authority key certs
45%: Asking for relay descriptors
50%: Loading relay descriptors
...
75%: Loading relay descriptors
80%: Connecting to the Tor network
90%: Establishing a Tor circuit
100%: Done
Tor has started
Looking up collector and test helpers with https://bouncer.ooni.io
Setting collector and test helpers for http_requests
Creating report with OONIB Reporter. Please be patient.
This may take up to 1-2 minutes...
Performing GET request to http://sarawakreport.org over Tor

censorship could be happening
Headers appear to *not* match

Thank you. I will test this when I get home. Maybe they just block the accest point in my area. The one in your area is still unaffected.
