1 year ago Would you consider adding support to change the DNS type (system, other, Rethink) based on the the Wi-Fi SSID?
SSID requires location permission, and so we've not prioritized adding this feature. It is something that's do-able, because all of the code (except for asking for permission) is already there.

1 year ago Ah, that's a shame. Is the permission a one-time requirement? I almost exclusively have location disabled.

On Android 8+ (ref), "location" permission has to be granted to apps fetching SSIDs (I don't think GPS has to be switched ON).

I've been using WG Tunnel for Wireguard, but I would much prefer using Rethink instead for a multitude of reasons. Not being able to opt-out of using a VPN/DNS on my WiFi at home is the one show-stopper really. I don't think I'm alone in that either.

Don't see how this request matches "per SSID DNS"? Or, you mean, "use System DNS" when at Home and some other DNS on the road?

The only reason we aren't working on this is, accessing SSID requires the Location permission.

7 months ago I meant system DNS/no VPN at home and some other DNS/VPN while on the road :)
Yeah I get it, would still be a nice feature though!

4 days ago I need this feature as well.
Can you implement it this way: Set customizable primary and secondary dns, when primary dns can't be reached switch to secondary dns, when primary dns is back online switch back to primary dns.
Just like AdGuard Home's 'Fallback DNS servers':

One use case might be to use the system DNS when connected to the home network. Alternatively, this could be configured on the "protection mode" level to disable Rethink's DNS handling (per SSID), but keep other features enabled (e.g. firewall).
NextDNS supports excluding Wi-Fi networks ("Wi-Fi networks (SSID) on which NextDNS is disabled"), at least on Apple profiles, which can be used to achieve this.
Related to #445 and #1103.
