Unable to connect to bbc.co.uk, netflix through Slingshots DNS servers with global mode enabled, working fine with googles DNS or after disabling global mode.

I've found global mode doesn't work 100% of the time. ie; I can watch shows on hulu but if you go to a web site ie; bravo tv the content there is "not available"

Can't really say what services Global mode will or will not work for. I know if you've got static DNS settings then it might not work so that could be something to try.
