DNS Problems on Excitel Broadband

we have only discovered - twitch , reddit, speedtest, github , quora .

there may be other sites that we are not aware of because we dont use them .


also 1 thing to note in case of twitch.tv

when on pc the site doesnt load at all. i get request timed out.

but on phone, the app works , thumbnails dont load up but video streaming works . like i can watch videos without any issue.

@Aakash Malhotra If u open twitch website directly on the phone (either m.twitch.tv or desktop version www.twitch.tv), instead of the twitch app, then it would behave the same as it does on pc. The app can play the stream but most other elements don't load. Same goes for the desktop version of twitch app.

Are you really sure it's DNS issue? Anyone tried nslookup at the time the issue occurs? I will appreciate results from nslookup that can show DNS failure or not.

Slow loading most probably excludes possibility of DNS issue because it's loading and with DNS failure nothing will load (in most cases).

Using other DNS might resolve the issue because if you are using distant DNS it most probably fetches the content from other CDN/Source and therefore avoiding the non-working path.

Just assumptions. Need more details to pinpoint exact issue.

can you please tell me what data you need ?

if this issue occurs again , i'll try to record a video and give you the data that you need.

experiencing the same. speed is fine. general browsing is very slow.
this forum is also not loading up . had to use my vpn.

aliexpress is not loading up.

except google youtube everything seems to not work.

Yeah there was an outage last night around after 12 for about 20-30 min, connected but no internet. Different from the DNS issue we've been discussin here.
