fvargasfrank

I have this problem
WHen i have DNS Resolver enable it works for a about 20-30 min then i get

This site can’t be reached

wololo.net’s server DNS address could not be found.
Search Google for wololo net
ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

if i wait a few minutes and refresh it start to work again, i dont see anything in the logs for DNS
Everything works good when i disable it.

DHCP Registration is check
Static DHCP is check

under DNS server setting
i have 2 dns setup and
DNS Server Override check

DHCP Registration is check

This means Unbound is restarted every time a new DHCP lease comes in (yes I consider this a bug - it's an old issue)

Search Google for wololo net

I don't know what Unbound (the DNS resolver) has to do with Google ….

Everything works good when i disable it.

Then who does your DNS then on the pfSense box ?

under DNS server setting
i have 2 dns setup and
DNS Server Override check

DNS Resolver / Unbound goes directly to the "top 13 TLD DNS masters" and works down-hill from there.
I never added any DNS servers my self (don't know why I should do that).
I'm using Unbound/DNS resolver as it was delivered by pfSense. Works great the last ….10 or more years.

Thank you for this info, because i believe this was the issues every time a new pc was getting into the wireless network it would happen. i will disable this when i get home and test.

THanks again this was driving me crazy

Is there a place where known bugs are documented ?
