I think perhaps Native means 'not PPP'?
Burakkucat wins the toblerone because he spotted it. I've been asleep for the entire day (until 21:00) so missed everything.
By the way, I should have told you to traceroute to [explicitly the literal ipv6 address of bottomless.aa.net.uk] if I had had any sense.
FYI that is
bottomless.aa.net.uk :
2001:8b0:0:81::51bb:51bb
81.187.81.187
btw: 0x51, 0xbb equates to 8110 18710 as an aide memoire.
And as I suggested before, worth trying the AA DNS servers, I haven't found any to compelling reason to use others further away, unless you need censorship. Would be interested to see the results of dnsbench. Another reason in favour of AA DNS is that the closer the server the more reliable the path to it is because there are fewer links to fail. And you know who to shout at. If you don't mind likely censorship or fiddling with NXDOMAIN you could have a mix of AA plus someone else for even more reliability, such as say 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 or the new 4.4.4.4 and 1.1.1.1 (and there is also OpenDNS whom I have used aeons ago and whose service is configurable provided you create an account in which case you can turn of the horrible tampering with NXDOMAIN.)
