If you want to put a bandaid on the problem, in Windows, click on the little wifi icon at bottom right, select Network & Internet settings, click on the adapter you are using (likely Wi-Fi), click on change adapter options, right click on Wi-Fi adapter and choose properties, double click Internet Protocol Version 4, change DNS to use the following DNS server and enter 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1. This will fix the issue until NG releases an update. To reverse this change do the same, but select Obtain DNS server address automatically.
