XR500 intermittent dns timeout issue
So have had this problem for a while now and thought it was my ISP since they said they where working on some upgrade of their infrastructure but that work has been done for a while now. I have been ...
Found a new problem too thanks to this forum if I start battlenet and there is a update it will cause this problem every time.
I have called my ISP to get a public IP instead of the CGNat one I am currently getting will take 1 to 5 days I have seen some other ppl on forums with the same ISP having this issue and this might solve the problem.
While checking the log to reply with it I saw I got a new IP in the log and its not a CGNat one and tried out battlenet and I can still load pages. Here is hoping the random timeouts problem is solved too.
Could you provide the log from the System Information page please when the issue happens?

- Ahh that's good to hear, do let us know!
Looks like the CGNat was the problem not had a single timeout the past day when I had several in a couple of hours before the change. Would have never figured this out unless I saw the random post on a gaming forum of a guy complaining that he could not load pages when he had battlenet running.
- That's really great to hear, thanks for the update!
