Windows 10: DNS client constantly downloading something

Hi,


On my Windows 10, svchost.exe (NetworkService -p) is constantly downloading something at 1,7 Mbit/s since a few days, maybe weeks. I can't manage to get what is going on.


Any idea ?


Thanks

:)

dns client resolvers not looking for 2nd DNS server when primary DNS server is off line

hi

i have a situation on a couple of domain networks where the client computers lose internet browsing (dns resolution) when the primary listed dns server goes off line.

i made the assumption that the client pc would imediately look to the secondary named dns server listed on its NIC ipv4 settings.

i have read a few articles from over 10 years ago that explains that it is the protocol that all vendors have to follow that causes this problem and that an ipconfig /flushdns will resolve the problem and the client will then find the secondary dns server.

can you tell me if there is a better solution or configuration that will remove the need for the end user to have to call tech support to fix their problem of not being able to web browse?

can DNS servers be clustered to prevent single point of contact failure? if so is it simple to configure?

if i point my primary dns to the firewall instead of the DC(DNS server) will this still allow for a speedy domain authentication?

are there any other solutions that you know of?

many thanks

  • In the DNS Client Properties dialog box, click the General tab, and then click Automatic in the Startup type list.
  • Click Start, click Apply, and then click OK.
