DNS Issues after firmware upgrade
I recently upgraded to the V1.42.84_1.3.42 firmware verison on my router. Since the update I am seeing random DNS timeout errors (the probe errors). In most cases, the time out is replaced within 1-2...
If I enable IPV6, what option should I be using?
Auto Detect?
6 to 4 tunnel or?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Was a factory reset and setup from scratch performed after v84 was installed?
Maybe onepiece can lend a hand?
CKopp I have reset and flashed to the latest .84 version as well but have not seen these DNS issues yet.
I would also recommend to disable armour and verify once as I don't have armour enabled and don't see these issues.
How do you disable Armour, I see no option for that.
PS. Another friend of mine has started experiencing the dns issue aftter router upgrade. I don't beleive she has Armor installed. I could downgrade, but before I do, I want to know what secuirty fix i would be giving up.
Until then, or until they issue a fix, I am working around it by stting DNS at the individual workstation level.
What happened to Netgear QC? :(
Thru the NH app on the Armor tile there should be a slider button to disable it or an option to disable it.
Best way to ensure it's disabled is to factory reset the router and setup from scratch and don't enabled it after the router is setup.
