I am trying to have only one DNS server selected for lookups but it keeps forwarding my lookups to 2 others in a differnet location much closer to my geolocation. That is precisely what I am trying to avoid.
I set it at the Internet Protocol IPv4 > General > Use the following DNS server address
Is the issue that the DNS I have selected is forwarding my DNS lookups to another DNS server? If so, do I only need to find such DNS server that won't redirect?
How are some websites detecting what DNS servers did I use to visit them? Edit: Looks like this might explain it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10721731/is-it-possible-to-detect-visitor-dns-server
what website is telling you what DNS server you are using? – Frank Thomas – 2019-05-11T02:05:08.237

I think I solved it I just don't know why it worked. I changed the DNS settings again to 1.1.1.1 from cloudflare. Now the DNS server IP is not visible there anymore. – miran80 – 2019-05-11T02:17:51.617
