  1. Windows DNS Problems


    Hello All,I am setting up a file server for a small business. It needs to be accessible remotely as well as on site. I have purchased the domain name and set that up for remote access. I have also set up on the same box a DNS server so that when computers are on the local network, the DNS will direct requests to that URL to the local network address.The DNS server appears to be working, but my windows machines are not using it. I have set its local IP, 192.168.1.5, as the first choice DNS server on both the router and tried setting it manually on individual PCs.When I try nslookup example.comI

  2. DNS problems with router

    A couple suggestions I have for you:

    Update the firmware on the router. Maybe it's getting into a badstate, and a firmware update might fix it. Or if you're comfortable with it, install a custom firmware like dd-wrt. Just make sure its supported on your router first.

    Change your DNS to: 8.8.8.8, 4.2.2.1. Might help.

    If none of these work, maybe statically set your DNS on your PS3/PC to the IPs you listed, taking the router out of the lookup procedure.

    Last option, is look for a new router.

  3. DNS server causing problem

    Hi Andrea,

    DNS is a server that translates websites' addresses so that browsers can connect to them. If the addresses become outdated or the server has issues, problems and DNS errors occur. For us to provide an accurate solution, we would need you to answer the following
    questions:

    • Which build, version and edition of Windows is installed on your computer?
    • What changes have you made to your device before this issue occurred?
    • Are you experiencing the same issue regardless if you are trying to be connected to a wired or wireless connection?

    For initial troubleshooting, we suggest deleting the DNS cache. This can refresh the DNS files and settings on your PC. Follow these steps to delete the DNS cache:

    • Using Search type Command Prompt.
    • Form the search results, right click on Command Prompt (Desktop app) and then choose Run as administrator.
    • In the Command Prompt window, type ipconfig /flushdns and then hit the Enter key.
    • Once done, restart your computer and then check if the same issue persists.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    Windows 10 DNS leak

    No, went with a different 3rd party suggestion. Works better. I'm reliant on others for my tech needs that way.
