Question

WiFi DNS

Aug 13, 2017 11:14AM PDT

I'm having problems accessing a site, for which I am admin, on my phone. My wife has the same issue. It goes between Err_Name_Not_Resolved and DNS_Probe_Finished_NXDomain. I had the problem on my computer (Err_Name_Not_Resolved) as well, but I've gotten that under control. Are there any suggestions?

Thanks!

The usual is a DNS issue.

Even on my phone I can change to another DNS such as what your web host supplies or a google dns.

You didn't reveal which phone so here's how for the iPhone.

Both phones are Android. Also, the site works on my phone when using data, it just seems to be the wifi (although I'm not certain if my wife's phone is able to get the site when using data).

You proved it's a DNS issue.
