DNS timeout weirdness

[bbunge]

Well, Cloudflare Secure is as good as Quad9 for blocking "bad" sites. It is, however, a manual entry for WAN DNS resolvers and DoT: 1.1.1.2 and 1.0.0.2 security.cloudflare-dns.com

@coxhaus is correct... not a great idea to use different DNS resolvers at the same time especially with DoT

I recommend you try OpenDNS: 208.67.220.220 208.67.222.222 dns.opendns.com

I was going to use Cisco Umbrella but QUAD9 came first. And now there is no Cisco small router which leaves me with QUAD9.
