Authorative DNS server that resolves more often (better)

The authorative DNS server on a Peplink 310hw2 firmware 5.4.6s14 build 1465 doesn’t resolve very well.

domaina.tld has NS records that point to servers
where the hostname.domaina.tld is a CNAME for hostname.domainb.com

hostname.domainb.com has 2 NS records,
1 pointing to host1.dnsalias.net (pointing to IP of WAN1 on the Peplink)
1 pointing to host2.dnsalias.net (pointing to IP of WAN2 on the Peplink)

Resolving test ran from http://just-dnslookup.com/ results are below.
