It's been several months cloudfare release 1.1.1.1.
After using it several months, I feel that it's getting slower. Is it just me?
Which do you prefer? google 8.8.8.8 dns or cloudfare 1.1.1.1 dns?

i'm always using 8.8.8.8 and ipv6 one, because cloudfare doesnot unlock sites. you know what i mean....

I use cloudflare and it unlock prawn site...
That why i still use it...

is it my prawn sites shows me blue shit mcmc

It's depend to your surfing behaviors...
1.1.1.1 is faster to get response from DNS hence it'll faster loaded websites but subjects to those hosted in APNIC regionals.

So if you more using USA sites, then 8.8.4.4 is still faster than 8.8.8.8

But for me, I'll using 1.9.1.9 and 1.1.1.1 after tested with JumperDNS.

My own DNS hosted on raspberry pi faster

Being using OpenDNS for 5 years.

Just do a ping test lol.

There have been a few teething issues with 1.1.1.1, and it is not entirely Cloudflare's fault as that particular IP address have been used as a private IP address, when it shouldn't be, and for a whole various other stuff as well, by other networking vendors and companies that should have known better. See here: https://blog.cloudflare.com/fixing-reachabi...1-1-1-globally/

For now, it is better to use Google 8.8.8.8, but I personally used OpenDNS and have not had any problems so far.

1111 was good at the beginning.

i hv returned to 8888, more stable, more reliable.

Use your router. That'll always be the fastest since it's physically closer. Most routers cache DNS requests. The first will come from the internet and thereafter from the router.

I haven't use 1.1.1.1 yet. Currently using Google and Opendns in my router.

or this:

I been having issues with Cloudflare or sometimes Google DNS, mostly just connectivity issues for them off and on to sites like Facebook and Instagram, like pictures won't load, or it takes a long time

But when I switch to OpenDNS, everything back to normal, which I found weird..

i go for 8.8.8.8

open space

Does google IPv6 DNS better than Automaticaly obtained one?.

Done,Based on this picture Cloudfare AVG latency is 1ms+ higher than Google DNS,but have a lower Peak latency.
Meanwhile Google DNS AVG Letency is 1ms lower and more consistent,but have a higher peak latency


agree lol

automatically obtained one is from TM = not good
I'm also go back to Google dns after tried cloudfare ones

That's weird, my's TM DNS always faster than Cloudflare and Google, while I'm staying far away from Cyberjaya still able get 4ms

use both. Cyberjaya actually far from the main backbones of the internet.

run the DNS benchmark, between cloudfare and google DNS, put the faster one first.
On my router i can have many DNS servers, heres how i decide mine.
First 2 DNS servers are openDNS (i use some settings).
Then the next 4 DNS are both google and cloudfare.
I Use the DNS benchmark to sort which IPs go first between openDNS 2 entries and the next 4 entries.

TM seems to have improved their infra but they still only have 1 PPPOE gateway per large area and that will be the main cause of problems for them. ISPs with multiple PPPOE gateways per area will have less issues because if you have a router like mikrotik you can connect to multiple simultaneously and it will use the faster one automatically, and for normal users, their routers will connect to whichever gateway responds the fastest. Very few ISPs around the world actually implement this and it requires no special config, only for more gateways to be available on the layer 2 network.

actually, is it really notice-able? i mean, the difference is just milliseconds.

yup, normally you wouldn't notice it.
but it'll decide good routes or poor routes to access the websites... eg some will bring you to HK/JP then come back MY/SG sites.

nope it probably just a placebo for those who say it faster than google DNS

I use both, cloudflare 1.1.1.1/back up 1.0.0.1 for streaming 4k at youtube or any other sites, its load 10x time faster than normal or google dns.

but cloudflare doesnt unblock every websites

1.1.1.1 might have some websites inaccessible , therefore i dropped 1.1.1.1 and revert to 8.8.8.8

resolving with 1.1.1.1 is noticeably slower for me perhaps don't have any regional servers yet.

put everything in, so when the faster DNS cant resolve, the slower google one does.

How is it today? Which is still better?

I'm using 1.1.1.1 for several months and didn't notice any different actually with Google.

But i go to 1.1.1.1 cause of Privacy.

Between share something about the OpenDNS, which actually acquired by Cisco under Umbrella Service.
Provide 1st Tier of DNS filtering. Somesort of Website protection from Cisco.
But you will feel the latency more higher than Google / Cloudfare , and most probably little slow of user experience.
And return is more safety browsing?

Wow. Good speed you got there.

You're using mobile line. That why the latency unstable.
I'm using fixed line. That why it is good speed and stable.
