1.1.1.1 is the fastest, privacy-first consumer DNS service powered by Cloudflare and no, this is not a joke.

Amazing. I love Cloudflare, this is a fantastic extension of their core work.

This company has a good reputation of fighting for privacy, as far as I can tell.

Pros:

Seems to really speed things up

Cons:

You have to trust somebody, why not them?

Davis Nunez

Nothing

Can this work with Eero in any way?
Aaran McGuire
@gabriel__lewis Yes, it should do. As long as your network or device allows you to change your DNS address, then you can use 1.1.1.1
Matt Durr
@gabriel__lewis Yes, I switched to it on my Eero just now

Tell me it's not an April Fool Joke?!
Aaran McGuire
@mrahmadawais It's not. It's 100% real.

it’s amazing, at the beginning I thought it’s April fool but then I realized that its just blocked by my isp provider, I used VPN to try to give it a try, but I couldn't because the certificate of the website has some issue, hope you gonna fix it soon

@engomarehab If you're still having issues, would you be able to send a traceroute of 1.1.1.1 so we can find out what the issue is?

Is it just me, I am not able to open the URL 1.1.1.1
Aaran McGuire
@sumangal_2311 If you're still having issues, would you be able to send a traceroute of 1.1.1.1 so we can find out what the issue is? -- A lot of ISPs have blocked this IP address, so it may need unblocking.

@aaranmcguire Just got it working, not sure what happened in the meanwhile :) Thanks for your help!

is it for all globe users or only for Asia Pacific region?
Aaran McGuire
@pandu_shree Yes, it's available globally.

@aaranmcguire I've tried to ping to the 1.1.1.1 and it seems slow comparing to my default ISP DNS

I just tried it and ran a bunch of before and after speed tests and there doesn't seem to be much of a difference... I'm on a MacBook using Fios in NYC.
