Cannot open https://1.1.1.1 or ping 1.1.1.1 in Bosnia

I have tried from multiple internet providers and it simply appears to be blocked country wide?

Its not blocked, just some people in various countries arent able to access it.

It could be a BGP/ Network issue. Can you try a traceroute and see where it dies (does it get to a telco, and if so can you tell which one)? Does 1.0.0.1 work for you?

1.1.1.1 was a horribly abused address space in the past. We’re still workign with a number of providers to try and resolve.

I didnt knew about that.

1.0.0.1 works fine, when I traceroute 1.1.1.1 it stops at my local ISP:

OK thanks for the report, I will pass it along to our networking team. You can also open a ticket on your own with your ISP if you like… couldn’t hurt and I’m sure they would love to hear from customers about the problem too. :slight_smile:

This should be resolved now, can you re-test?

Hello,

I can now ping and trace the IP:

But I can’t access https://1.1.1.1/ or receive dns replies:

    timeout was 2 seconds.

I am happy to report that 1.1.1.1 is working for DNS requests as of today.
