tplinkdns nameservers problems?

Hi!

In short I have a few things running on my home server and Im using my own domain with cnames pointing to my "homeserver.tplinkdns.com". (I've changed domain and windows account name since I dont want to share them)

I have WinAcme running which refreshes my SSL certificates, however it started failing about 1 week ago and now wont refresh since it fails the http-01 validation. When I try to resolve the DNSName I get this, I'm assuming the problem for the http-01 validation is that all nameservers do not return the same data, but I dont really know.

I tried running my own http-01 validaiton here: https://letsdebug.net/

And I only get DNSLooupFailed and NoRecords found, even though they are there when checking against 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8

If anyone knows anything about this I'd be glad to get some more information
