Refused q: …Due to a court order in France issued under Article L.333-10 of the French Sport code the OpenDNS service is not currently available to users in France and certain French territories.
What is the issue you’re encountering
I can get anything resolved by the DNS
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
I have done a tcpdump so see what was going on (see screenshot)
What feature, service or problem is this related to?
DNS records
What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
All my other devices in my local network can get a proper dns resolution.
If I connect this device (having the issue) to a VPN (hence getting a new public address
and not using Cloudflare assigned DNS (172.64.36.1 and 172.64.36.1) I am not getting the issue.
I don’t have the WRAP agent installed on that device. It is getting DNS address from DHCP.
Apologies, I forgot to add the screenshot of tcpdump.Here is a screenshot of the results from my tcpdump command on the device to show what I am talking about.
It applies to other DNS providers as well. I imagine all the requests are sent to DNS servers managed by French bureaucrats. Rather than use their mad technical skillz to send a different message to different DNS providers using EDNS0 they simply return a message about OpenDNS.
Right I understand that these might be somewhat related.
However, if I were to be somehow impacted. What would that be due to?
I don’t have that problem on other devices on my local LAN and they also ge the same DNS servers from my DHCP.
If they were to target a public IP address (like mine) I would face the same issue on other devices, which I don’t. Besides even if I request website such as google.com I get refused still.
