Windows 10: Internet stops working when I change DNS Server IP on Windows Server 2019

I'm trying to set up Windows Server 2019. I've set static IP on server machine192.168.0.107. And When I give the same IP for DNS server. Internet stops working. Both the static IP192.168.0.107 and DNS server IP192.168.0.107 should be the same, shouldn't it? When I give the Google/Router DNS. Internet works fine.

DNS Servers

So far, it seems like I got it fixed. I disabled Advanced DNS Service and DNS Relay. I put in the two DNS server IPs I listed above into the internet configuration and rebooted it.

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

Try the following methods and check if it helps.

  Enter.

Method 2:

Step 1:

• Connect to your router (by typing 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 in the address bar) and log in. Check your user manual or documentation if you do not know the log-in credentials.
• Make sure you are in the Setup ->Basic Setup category.
• Scroll down until you see 'DHCP Server' - if it is disabled, select 'Enable'.
• Enable DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). If you want, you can change the number that the DHCP IP assigning starts (this is optional).
• Use the DNS (Domain Name System) servers provided to you by your
  ISP (Internet Service Provider). There are many DNS servers out there. It's best to use your ISP's if possible.
• Scroll down and click 'Save Settings'.

DNS SERVER NOT RESONDING

Hi Rita French,

This issue often occurs when the DNS settings are incorrect. I suggest you to perform the following methods to troubleshoot the issue.

Method 1:

I would recommend you to change the Preferred DNS server and check if it helps.

• Press Windows + R keys to open Run window, type
  ncpa.cpl and press Enter.
• Right-click on the connection that you use for the local connection, and then click
  Properties.
• Click to select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), and then click
  Properties.
• In the Internet Protocol window, let's change the Preferred DNS server to
  208.67.222.222
• Click OK twice to complete the modification.

Note: If the issue persists, please repeat the steps and change the "Preferred DNS server" to 208.67.220.220.

Method 2:

If that does not help, try to flush the DNS. Follow these steps below.

• From Start screen, type Command Prompt.
• Right-click on Command Prompt and choose Run as Administrator.
• Type: ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.

Note: The ipconfig /flushdns command provides you with a means to flush and reset the contents of the DNS client resolver cache. During DNS troubleshooting, if necessary, you can use this procedure to discard negative cache entries from the cache, as well
as, any other dynamically added entries.

Hope any of these methods help!

Kind regards,

Leon
