Encountered issues with DNS during configuration updates.
Encountered issues with DNS during configuration updates.
Hello, Your DNS settings on the router seem to be causing delays and occasional errors. You've noticed the issue appears after switching to Cloudflare DNS, even though it worked fine before. It's interesting that the problems resurface after a couple of days. Could there be a temporary configuration hiccup or a dependency issue with the DNS service?
I previously attempted this earlier, using ipconfig release and renew, but the issue resurfaced.
Yes, similar processes occur with other third-party DNS services like Google and Quad9 as well.
It seems the third-party DNS is interfering, likely due to your ISP. The best solution is to use DNS-over-HTTPS or DNS-over-TLS, which hides DNS queries as encrypted web traffic or secures the packets themselves.
It's difficult to determine the cause without more details. Possible reasons include your ISP, ISPs peering with yours, or routing issues. DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) could help if you're using Cloudflare. For Windows, the simplest way to set up system-wide DoH is via https://simplednscrypt.org/
But that applies only to Windows; I need support for phones and game consoles too. I think I'll try adding Cloudflare DNS on my router once more.
