NextDNS does not work many a times. I prefer the iOS app so that it’s easy to disable when needed, but the app has not been updated for a few years. Many a times the test page at test.nextdns.io will show as unconfigured and sometimes it will show as passing the test.
On Apple TV, I have the NextDNS profile installed, but it still doesn’t work.
Most of the community forum posts on NextDNS don’t get any answers. I’m sure the DNS servers exist, but the clients and the configuration options have not been supported by the creators.
I wouldn’t recommend NextDNS to anyone because of this apathy by its creators.
NextDNS was working a treat for me, and it was only through NextDNS's meticulous logging that I immediately discovered that my consumer grade router was hopelessly compromised: joined a botnet, trafficking porn, IDK.
So I threw the router out the window, and signed up to rent CPE from my ISP; edge router security is now 100% their responsibility!
minor nitpick, but it's not ownership so much as location. Sometimes the ISP will own the equipment, but it will be located on the customer premises rather than the ISP premises. It's an important distinction as you can't just rock up and do stuff to it.
