Hub 5 Intercepting all DNS queries?
Hi,
I've just moved to Virgin from Sky.
After setting up my Router, and disabling all WebSafe stuff online, I got some weird DNS failing to resolve issues - hostnames that if i switched back to Sky, we're working fine, and my other colleagues can all connect fine.
I noticed that I couldn't change the default DNS server on the Router itself, a quick google said that's no longer possible with this new hub.
I then updated my Wifi Connection DNS servers on both a Windows and Mac device and both of them claimed to be searching through either 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8, but both failed to return the results.
I can only assume that VM is intercepting all DNS queries, even when you specifiy an alternative? Also not sure why they're failing to resolve so many different generic AWS domains.
Has anyone else had similar issues / knows of a way to fix it?
My next port of call will be switching to https based DNS, but I'd rather not 😞
DNS interception & DNS / AWS resolution issues have appeared as repeat gripes of Hub 5s in Router mode.
The fix is to use Hub 5 in Modem mode + a Wi-Fi Router.
