DNS Server Is Not Responding to Few PCs Everyday

by rgs23 . Updated 6 years, 8 months ago

Hi, I’m new here!

I wanna ask something about DNS-related issue.

So my daily scenario goes like this:

I go to work, and some PCs (~5-10) are always having issues with their DNS. They always have no internet connection. I fix it every morning by switching from static to DHCP and vice versa. Sometimes it takes a lot of time, sometimes it goes less than 1 minute. But eventually, it will be fixed. I’m really confused and frustrated as I can’t seem to understand the problem and a permanent solution. I tried googling the fixes but every post gives the same solution.

Solutions I always do:

Switch Static IP to DHCP and vice versa
Changing the DNS Server Address to 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4, and if it doesn’t work, I put our default gateway’s address.
Running CMD on admin, typing ‘netsh int ip reset’, ‘netsh winsock reset’, ‘ipconfig /flushdns’
And of course, restarting the PC itself.

Seeking for help, thank you!
