base.dns.mullvad.net is my goto for devices that I don’t manage often, like for family, but the last few days it will randomly just not respond for a few minutes and then suddenly be fine. I haven’t seen any news about it and their server status is just for their VPNs. Anyone else noticing this or have any info?
Can confirm, to a lesser extent. Each query takes a few seconds to resolve, which isn’t a huge deal, except when browsing, so I set Adguard DNS within the browser.
I have noticed similar issues recently and also suspect their DNS is to blame.
Next time it happens I’ll try to toggle it off and back on, it’s just been a few times over a few days but it will suddenly be all of the devices, even those on mobile networks for a minute or so and then it is fine for hours.
yes, just as you described but on my ios devices so idk if it’s related.
when i emailed mullvad support, they promptly responded with “log out, then log in”. it didn’t fix anything but it seems like turning off multi-hop has helped.
i also had a separate geolocation issue around the same time but support said that they [firefox focus/google] “are using an incorrect geolocation database”.
like you, i also tried looking online and didn’t find anything. i’m glad to find your post – thank you. i bookmarked it in case you or someone finds a fix.
Yeah I always turn off multihop and DAITA on my Mullvad thing, I know it’s less secure but they absolutely murder my connection speed.

I’ve had no issues so far. Response times have been relatively quick, nothing unusual.
