What if you cannot load a site (like glitch.me) for a DNS problem

I had this problem: I could not see the glitch.me sites and I had this error:

DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

I could not find why, I even asked to the guys of glitch.com and of my ISP, but they could not help me. So I searched for the error on google and on this link here if the first method didn’t work (ipconfig /flushdns), the second, after restarting chrome, worked. So I thought to share it with you.

Pratically, I found that the solution is to insert manually the DNS 1 to 8.8.8.8 and the DNS2 at 8.8.4.4, as you will see in the video tutorial at the end of this post. I made it on a Windows 10 pc with two different ISP (italian ISP, vodafone and Poste Mobile) and worked with both of them for me. I made it also on an ipad (watch the video below) and it worked for it too.

Flushdns

Even if this did not work for me, you can try it, before you try the other one that solved the problem for me. Go in the cmd and type

ipconfig /flushdns

Restart modem and pc and see if it worked.

The other one

The other one is a bit more complicated to explain, but it will be very easy to understand if you follow what I do in the video below. You have to go in the properties of the wifi and set this page like this.

and in the next window do what you see here:

Select the internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)

and write, like above, 8888 and 8844 ind DNS favourite and DNS alternative.

Press OK, restart Chrome and you should be ok.

How to solve the problem on windows

With post mobile I had the same issue on Windows

I did the same thing for another ISP, poste mobile, and in the video below you can see how I did it and that it worked, with the same solution I did for the other ISP.
