DNS setup

Mon Jan 03, 2022 2:47 pm

Hi,

I don't know if it is a failure or my mistake, but on the router I can ping domain names like google.com, but on my PC there is no name resolving. I can ping IP addresses without any problem, but no domain names from my PC. Does anybody have any idea?

I have few ideas:

a) Your PC has invalid DNS config. Check "ipconfig /all" for DNS servers.
b) There's something wrong with configured DNS server. Is it router or something else? If it's router, does it allow remote requests (see IP->DNS)?
c) Something interferes with DNS queries, most likely your router. Check its firewall rules.

DNS testtool for your PC is "nslookup"
.
C:\Users\bpwl>nslookup
Default Server:  Vigor.router
Address:  192.168.2.1

> google.com
Server:  Vigor.router
Address:  192.168.2.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    google.com
Addresses:  2a00:1450:4007:816::200e
