Hey everyone, I suspect there might be a DNS problem. The issue I'm facing is shown in the screenshot you shared. I've hidden the top and bottom sections for privacy, but the titles and other details look the same as on my screen. What concerns me is that it affects multiple devices on my home network. Also, occasionally when I visit a link on my main computer, I encounter a DNS error in Google Chrome that lasts for a while before resolving itself after a short or longer period. I've tried several solutions: switched routers, reset them, changed DNS settings both on the machine and the router. If anyone can explain what's happening with the attached image, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike

Have you experimented with another DNS server? Check 8.8.8.8 as primary, 8.8.4.4 as secondary, and CloudFlare 1.1.1.1 as primary, along with 1.0.0.1 as a backup.

I would try searching via Google or OpenDNS to verify. Many providers are experiencing problems with blackholes in the 1.1.1.0/24 range, causing inconsistent or failed connections.

You asked whether the setting was made fixed or within the router. I’d prefer to test a different server. The problem doesn’t seem to be tied to a specific PC since it impacts all devices on the network.
