Hi,
I’m located in Dubai
If I do a tracert to 1.1.1.1 my last hop is 195.229.4.43 which is located in Dubai which is good
However i’m using “dnscrypt proxy” and when i run dnscrypt-proxy -resolve example.com
I get this result, with resolver IP 162.158.117.176 ; why is it using a Japanese server?
C:\dnscrypt>dnscrypt-proxy -resolve example.com
Resolving [example.com]Domain exists: yes, 2 name servers found
Canonical name: example.com.
IP addresses: 2606:2800:220:1:248:1893:25c8:1946, 93.184.216.34
TXT records: v=spf1 -all
Resolver IP: 162.158.117.176
162.158.117.176 seems to be located in Japan which also is confirmed with a ping of >150ms
Any idea why/how dnscrypt would not pick the closest server?
also 1.1.1.1/help is saying I’m using the Dubai datacenter which doesn’t match the output from the dnscrypt resolve
