[QUOTE="F 4 E, post: 862220, member: 77659"] Thanks Antus67 for above info. (y) We’re enabling DoH by default only in the US. If you’re outside of the US and would like to enable DoH, you’re welcome to do so by going to Settings, then General, then scroll down to Networking Settings and click the Settings button on the right. Here you can enable DNS over HTTPS by clicking, and a checkbox will appear. By default, this change will send your encrypted DNS requests to Cloudflare. Users have the option to choose between two providers — Cloudflare and NextDNS — both of which are [URL='https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/DOH-resolver-policy']trusted resolvers[/URL]. Go to Settings, then General, then scroll down to Network Settings and click the Settings button on the right. From there, go to Enable DNS over HTTPS, then use the pull down menu to select the provider as your resolver. Source: [URL='https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2020/02/25/firefox-continues-push-to-bring-dns-over-https-by-default-for-us-users/']Firefox continues push to bring DNS over HTTPS by default for US users – The Mozilla Blog[/URL] I've set this up in my Firefox, so it will be interesting to see if there are any problems. So far, browsing speed seems unaffected. [/QUOTE]
