1.1.1.1 DNS Service
I like using the Cloudflare's new public DNS resolver 1.1.1.1 because it makes DNS queries faster and more secure, but when my MacBook Pro (macOS Sierra 10.12.6) DNS settings are set to 1.1.1.1 ...
¡Hola, @magentapink!
Welcome to our Support Community! Does your hotspot work when you don't attempt to modify the DNS settings (when not using Cloudfare's new DNS resolver)? If so, the service is working as it should be and we don't have any other workarounds to provide a different DNS setting.
It seems less than ideal that a major provider such as T-Mobile is forcing users to use only T-Mobile’s “approved” DNS providers - especially given that CloudFlare DNS is not only free to use but is also more secure and private than plain DNS.
A cynical person might say that T-Mobile is doing this so they can watch traffic on their network and gather information about their users, but that can’t be it, can it?
