Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 public DNS broken w/ AT&T CPE

Mon Apr 2 15:03:14 UTC 2018

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.
