Fix Clash DNS Configuration Guide | Generated by AI

Home 2026.02

I can help you fix your Clash DNS configuration. The issue is likely with the fallback URL format or your overall DNS setup. Here’s a corrected configuration to use global DNS:

dns:
  enable: true
  ipv6: false
  enhanced-mode: fake-ip
  fake-ip-range: 198.18.0.1/16
  nameserver:
    - 8.8.8.8
    - 1.1.1.1
  fallback:
    - 1.0.0.1
    - 8.8.4.4

Key changes:

  1. Remove the HTTPS URL in fallback — The fallback section should only contain DNS servers (IP addresses or DNS-over-HTTPS URLs that Clash actually supports), not arbitrary HTTP paths. Your 192.168.0.1/dns-query won’t work as written.

  2. Use standard public DNS servers — For global DNS, stick with proven providers like:

    • 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (Google)
    • 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 (Cloudflare)
    • 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 (OpenDNS)

If you want DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH), use this format instead:

dns:
  enable: true
  ipv6: false
  enhanced-mode: fake-ip
  fake-ip-range: 198.18.0.1/16
  nameserver:
    - https://dns.google/dns-query
    - https://1.1.1.1/dns-query
  fallback:
    - 8.8.4.4
    - 1.0.0.1
