And it didn't work for me. Still getting the same error.
Roling back worked for me. Have you rebooted, or on your computer:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /renew
Another question and please don't laugh.. If I buy a new router, not Netgear, give it the same SSID and password, will all my currently connected devices automatically connect to the new router?
It should.
How many clients on you network. if you assign DNS manually, it will work. but if you have lot of clients then it sucks.
" Have you rebooted, or on your computer:

Thank you! Releasing and renewing seems to have made it better. For the most part, most webpages will load, but still getting the nxdomain error on some, but reloading will bring up the webpage.
Annnnddddd.......after using the internet for 15 minutes, it's back to getting the nxdomain again on more websites.
"How many clients on you network. "
Clients?
- I have absolutely no idea. But I don't think it would be easy. Easy would be buying a new router.
How much work to change the DNS settings on each. Can you easily change the DNS on the smart devices?
