Re: VPN possible DNS issues? At the home computer, when you type ipconfig /all does the MX come up as the DNS server or does your DNS server on the other side of the VPN come up? if you manually type in the DNS server in the DNS section of your network adapter's IP properties are you able to resolve hostnames?

Symptoms: User can't access web base applications and unable to resolve DNS. DNS issues over VPN By Goody3335 · 13 years ago I have many users connecting over VPN (PPTP using Microsoft VPN) and all of a sudden only some are not able to connect to DNS. VPN is disconnecting / DNS is not resolving Symptom : Establishing a VPN connection works fine however Browsers do not resolve any URLs. Cause : This symptom can be caused by an improperly configured DNS settings which do not get updated. Some (but not all) of our Windows 10 users are having a DNS problem when connecting to our local internal network via SSL VPN. The IP range for our internal network is 192.168.31.0/24. SSL VPN users all get addresses in the 10.242.2.0/24 range. Our UTM provides DNS services for local network. I was told to call my VPN provider when it is clearly NOT an issue with my VPN, it is an issue with my network. My IT team believes it's an issue with DNS, but flushing the DNS on my computer does not seem to have worked. If that doesn't help, try changing the DNS servers you are using when connected to the VPN. To do so, simply: Navigate to the Settings (cog icon) of the NordVPN application. Click Advanced. Enable Custom DNS settings. Click Set DNS server address, enter 8.8.8.8; Click Set DNS server address again, and enter 8.8.4.4; Afterward, try to connect again. I have checked in a fix that will address some of the VPN DNS resolving issues, including yours. Currently for DNS resolving we update /etc/resolv.conf from the service. In this fix I added the capability to manually modify the /etc/resolv.conf file if you wish so, disabling its automatic regeneration.
Jan 02, 2020 · Google Public DNS. Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8 Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4 Of course, Google was going to be the number one pick on the list of free DNS servers. Google Public DNS was started in 2009 and has enabled millions of internet goers to enjoy a great online experience. Using the vpn setup in this way, all of my clients traffic gets routed through the VPN, which is great. If I trace route from the pfsense to some IP I can see that my pfSense traffic is also being routed through the VPN: fantastic. The only problem is that the DNS Resolver does not work. Not sure what you mean. This is initial beginning with the VPN so I have no history of DNS working through the VPN in the past. If you mean 'without the VPN being 'on,' then yes, it works fine connected to the "coffee house" public wifi (or anybody else's), and connected to home wifi.
I am aware of the Windows 10 DNS leakage issues and have addressed those, but this does not look like it, as the queries being actually forwarded to the gateway and not blasted out of Wi-Fi. I'll collect and attach the trac.log from the Endpoint VPN client later if you want to take a look at it.
The primary issue is the interaction between the DNS changes the VPN connection creates (switching to corporate internal DNS) and how WSL discovers DNS settings to populate /etc/resolv.conf is flawed, this is how I fixed it for my corporate VPN solution (GlobalProtect).
