DNSSEC www.dnssec-tools.org with 8.8.8.8

Anonymous
Not applicable

Well I can't make heads or tails of this Community layout in where the boards are so here goes.

 

So I've got a 4G Dongle this it mostly a backup connection to my ISP virgin media I've been trying to work out a problem with dnssec and the test at www.dnssec-tools.org and think its down to your HTTP proxy so to test I use just 8.8.8.8 which supports dnssec set on the NIC so it must use that for DNS over 4G. Now when a test on virgin media with 8.8.8.8 for www.dnssec-tools.org it passes but on O2 4G it fails. At this point you might be thinking dnssec is not supported over 4G with O2? Wrong because it does at another dnssec site at dnssec.vs.uni-due.de and both pass.

 

So I'm very sure its down to the HTTP proxy you put on the O2 4G connection thats messing the DNS SEC test up for www.dnssec-tools.org

 

Anyone else seeing this?

 

thanks

It can also circumnavigate some isp restrictions too.

What are you testing that requires the use of a Google DNS ?.......it's the last DNS I'd use.....for any type of work

I hear it improves video feed quality from some servers...

Off most sites no, but some crappy servers found offshore in the Pacific etc... Do better on the Google DNS.

If work depended on it, I'd be working hand over fist to get it sorted.

Should also check connection, the dongle needs to be steady and firm.

If that's OK, you can always check for local flaccid masts at http://status.o2.co.uk

Indeed, overuse can cause poor performance.....
