Weird internet loss on random devices when switching DNS servers


Recommended Posts

Hi,

First time posting. I got an XR450 as a gift and it is a big improvement over my old Linksys but I have this weird issue.

I have Opendns for the family and when I switch DNS in the DumaOS dashboard I loose internet connection to random devices, NOT wifi. I can switch back to my ISP DNS and then it all comes back.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Welcome to the forum!

How long did you leave it set to a custom DNS? I wonder if the devices in question needed time to adjust to the new setting.

It could also be that your ISP is forcing all of your DNS requests to their servers, although I don't think this would necessarily stop your devices from connecting.
