Support for DoT (DNS-over-tls)

@girish Thanks Girish for your clear explanation.
One question from my side.
Do you restrict source ip addresses to port:853 in your firewall, from the outside in? Or do you restrict ip addresses in AdGuard?
For security reasons......Also does port:53 have to opened up as well in the firewall for this to work? Or only port:853?

It's best to restrict source IP in the firewall, if this is possible in your situation. To keep the IP range flexible, you can geo lock the IP range to your region. This does still make it slightly vulnerable. My router (synology) supports geolocking built-in.

Port 53 is needed if you use it as a DNS server, which AFAIK Android does not support setting anymore!.

If you are on a home sever, the firewall needs to port forward the above port (853 by default) to the Cloudron VM.
Aha! This is probably the reason it's not working. I wasn't aware of that setting. But now I do see it (and its enabled).
I'll forward that port in my firewall. Thanks @girish

@girish I'm having the same issue. My Cloudron instance is in the cloud. How to forward port 853 or open?
Also I see this in AdGuard Encryption settings and logs below.

This is automatically opened on the server itself. Do you have a Cloud firewall or some security group in front of the server?
It seems the cert is self-signed, are your certs OK on the browser?
