            OTA 3 Stable channel --- You can reinstall, no changes are necessary.

                  New tests.

                  I noted this:
                  . Sometimes a reboot is necessary to get my carrier's DNS fully restored if I no longer want to use cloudflare dns. Just using the 'restore' option in the script is not enough.

                  . When using cloudflare, in the list of cloudflare DNS servers, some are in the USA (Missouri). Is this normal ? Shouldn't cloudflare DNS all stay in its country of origin like I see with Firefox (all in France for me) ?

                  Thank you to enlighten me.

                    It could be caused by dns cache, after restoring try this :

                    sudo resolvectl flush-caches
                    

                    if it works, I can add it to next version

                    servers in 120+ countries ... I don’t know what criteria they use

                      Sorry, i can't confirm it works for me. A reboot is yet necessary.

                      When i did my precedent feedback, i was in RC TEST OTA-4. Now i am on 'real' OTA-4 and all cloudfare DNS are in my country. So for this, it's solved. 🤔 🙂

                        --- New version (only an optimization) here, as reported by @domubpkm to restore the original dns servers reboot is required (added message).

                          Hi @Br1 . Could you please update your very useful script for Noble ? I'm still using your last focal script which works yet with Noble, but with an error. Thanks in advance.
