That sounds like a provider problem with their configuration most likely. I run hundreds of 844E, 844Gs and have one at 
my house even, and it continues out fine for 1.1.1.1 when I was testing over the weekend with our config.

I am behind a Calix router at home for my ISP and 1.1.1.1 goes to my router and not any further. When I enter the IP 
into my browser, it opens the login page for my router. So it appears 1.1.1.1 is used as a loopback in my Calix router.

1.0.0.1 goes to the proper place fine.

Greetings,

If anyone at 7018 wants to pass a message along to the correct folks, 
please let them know that Cloudflare's new public DNS service 
(1.1.1.1) is completely unusable for at least some of AT&T's customers.

There is apparently a bug with some CPE (including the 5268AC). From 
behind such CPE, the services at 1.1.1.1 are completely unreachable, 
whether via (ICMP) ping, DNS, or HTTPS.

Using the 5268AC's web-based diagnostic tools, pinging 1.1.1.1 returns 
the following results:

  ping successful: icmp seq:0, time=2.364 ms
  ping successful: icmp seq:1, time=1.085 ms
  ping successful: icmp seq:2, time=1.160 ms
  ping successful: icmp seq:3, time=1.245 ms
  ping successful: icmp seq:4, time=0.739 ms

RTTs to the CPE's default gateway are, at minimum, ~20 ms.

A traceroute (using the same web-based diagnostic tool built-in to the
CPE) reports, simply:

  traceroute 1.1.1.1 with: 64 bytes of data

  1: 1.1.1.1(1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com), time=0 ms

I haven't bothered to report this to AT&T through the standard 
customer support channels (for reasons that should be obvious to 
anyone who has ever called AT&T's consumer/residential technical 
support) but if anyone at AT&T wants to pass the info along to the 
appropriate group, it would certainly be appreciated.

Thanks,
-Jeremy
