I've a dedicated server which outgoing traffic seems to struggle to reach certain external IP addresses/websites (for a very long time) and as well often feels slow to catch up in cases where a website has changed host.
Is there a way my dedicated Ubuntu 14.04 server could e.g. use Cloudflare DNS 1.1.1.1 when querying external websites (if so how) - instead of whatever is default within OVH's network structure or is this not possible to change.

Hello @ChristianV ,
You can change the nameserver on Ubuntu by changing the configuration file (/etc/resolv.conf).
You can use for example this command: nano /etc/resolv.conf
Hope this is helpful ;)
