Netgear XR1000v2 constant DNS issues

Hey all,

 

As the title suggests i am having constant networking issues where i am unable to connect to any websites for several minutes that occur multiple times a day. I also have a forum going on Netduma forum and so far with have.

 

Manually changed my DNS to google.

 

Changed my DHCP settings to create after .50 and have given all my devices a static address between .2 and .49.

 

I am still getting these issues with these changes, unsure what else i can do.

 

Has anyone else had this issue and managed to fix it?

    What modem/gateway are you connected to? 

    Are you using IPv6? if so, disable it. 

    Who's your ISP? I know xfinity has had ipv6 issues for a while (from my own experience)

    Are your browsers set to use the OS DNS (which comes from the XR1000)?  Or are they set to use DoH?

     

    If they are using the OS DNS, you should try changing that and see if it makes any difference.  If it doesn't, then that rules out DNS.

     

    You might also try running some long-duration ping test, (pinging 8.8.8.8 ) and see if how often that fails to get a response.
