See https://github.com/Control-D-Inc/ctrld/issues/123 The installer won't put the binary in the right place, so you gotta do it manually.

Same as above.

That sounds highly irregular. Can you provide an example of such a behavior? dig/nslookup output and your ASN? There is anti-abuse mitigations in place (as with all public DNS resolvers), but you have to reach hundreds of qps and sustain it for a while before it starts throttling you on free...

Thanks, appears to be 2x of Cloudflare and Google, which is of course a higher absolute number, but in reality would have zero human noticeable difference. Once we add a POP in Atlanta, it should decrease latency to approx the same range.

Can you provide a traceroute to dns.controld.com, 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8? When it comes to global average latency, Control D is in the top 3: https://www.dnsperf.com/#!dns-resolvers (YMMV)

Smoker here, likely the one that responded to the OP. As someone else said already, DOT doesn't work on quite a few networks in many countries due to a bespoke port that it uses. If it works on your network, and you prefer "native" method, by all means use stock Merlin. The performance...

Older thread, but I'll chime in with a solution you can try, which is our DNS proxy server called ctrld: You can run it directly on your Merlin router using a 1 liner install command. Then you can edit your config file and create multiple upstreams, and define your failover behavior between...

Hmmm, interesting. Can you email me your config file to [email protected], what physical device you ran this on, and approx. query volume you were sending? Edit: I think we may have identified an issue. When default gateway changes, and changes back to the original one, the issue occurs. It...

You should try pinging dns.controld.com and dns.nextdns.io and see if you get a response. For Control D specifically you can visit this exact URL: https://dns.controld.com/info If it doesn't load then the domain or IP address is resolves to is blocked on your network.

We've done a series of tests, and it appears the arm v5 binary runs on your router, at least in our tests on an identical model. Not sure why, as armv7 is totally supported..... Try this exact version: https://github.com/Control-D-Inc/ctrld/releases/download/v1.1.0/ctrld_1.1.0_linux_armv5.tar.gz...

Heya, I'm one of Control D staff, and ctrld utility is one of our projects. I've escalated this to the devs, we'll get it running on AC68U part of v1.2 which will have self-setup capabilities. v1.1 will be released shortly (lots of new features), but the fix for this won't make it in.
