    Which DNS server are you trying to connect to?

    BrowseDNS:
    45.55.112.11
    or 46.101.65.164

    Switchbru:
    45.55.142.122

    If none work, can you try another wifi hotspot or phone tethering and see if the same problem happens?

          @Maxthegamer4548 i think its because you didnt set it to manual, i dont know why, but it does take its sweet time to reload when timer hits

          who dares underestimate highway trucks? i dont, its the path, not the truck, brains over brawns are the way

            The 46.101.65.164 one is a UK server and may have different results. The other two are east and west coast US servers.

            But, your Wifi router or Internet Service Provider may also be overriding the DNS packets. Some routers provide this as a feature and it can be disabled in router settings. If it's the ISP there aren't a lot of options outside of contacting them.

                  @Maxthegamer4548 No, the secondary field is only used when the first server can't be reached. Since you're connected, you are getting the DNS to resolve from somewhere.

                  UK server didn't work either? The other wifi hotspot?

                      @Maxthegamer4548 Are you able to access your router settings and check if there is a feature to force override DNS queries? This is sometimes presented as a safety feature to prevent DNS spoofing (which is what a captive portal utilizes.)
