Pity they couldn't get a cool IP address like Cloudflare and Google. Since without some source of DNS you can't reach dns0.eu it's good to have something memorable like 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8

And 1.1.1.1 + 8.8.8.8 = 9.9.9.9 (https://quad9.net)
yeah I think that's really a big shortcoming. It probably comes down to funding, but it results in a big usability issue. I'll never remember those IPs, and when I can so easily remember 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8, it's obvious what I'm always going to choose.
No IPv6 either
They have, but they listed them only in the Others and Linux tab for some reasons 2a0f:fc80:: 2a0f:fc81::
Perfect!
It's kind of ironic that their main IPv4 addresses are x.x.x.0, while their "ZERO" filtering version uses x.x.x.9.
Use 1.1.1.1 to get the networking working, find DNS0.eu and change the DNS again :)
