I'm using the newest version of Chrome . . .Version 100.0.4896.127 (Official Build) (64-bit)
The version that I back up to is v1.4.1.68_1.3.28 because that's the last one I have that doesn't exhibit the DNS issues.
The version that auto-updates is v1.4.3.88_1.3.50

Does it happen in other browsers as well?
I have mine online now however I haven't tried to disable auto updates yet. I use MS Edge to set it up the other day.
One can enable IPv6 as a work around for DNS issue. I believe I saw some DNS issues yesterday however I'm giving it a bit more time on v.88
