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?
I was un-willing to give up the secuirty update, so I just configured the DNS settings on the invidual (windows-based, Apple IOS still seem to work fine) workstations. I like cloud flare for this. This seems to work just fine.
Have you tried this approach to be able to keep the new update?
I have the same problem after upgrading the firmware. Setting the DNS at the windows level fixed the issue.
Thanks for the recommendation. Like someone asked what happened to NETGEAR QC? I will think twice next time when I have to upgrade my router. Few times my router reset it self loosing all the configuration. Later i found out that it was due to auto firmware upgrade was on. So I disabled to avoid any issues in future.
I have my router config backed up before the firmware upgrade. If i have to hard reset the router, can I restore these configurations?
