Trouble with DNS on Android 16 – Need Help!

Asked By TechieGizmo42 On

I'm having issues using DNS on my Android 16 (One UI version 8.0). I keep getting errors whenever I try to connect. I've attempted to use AdGuard DNS, but I'm still facing problems. It appears to be a software issue as my phone restricts any internet access when trying to use DNS, even when it's connected.

I recently checked and found that when using dns.adguard.com on Wi-Fi, I get an error saying 'Private DNS server cannot be accessed', which leads to connection without internet despite it working fine on other devices. Additionally, my mobile data is also affected when I try to connect to that DNS. I've reset my network settings but it hasn't resolved anything. I'm not very tech-savvy, so I appreciate any input!

It sounds like the issue might be with your Wi-Fi router settings. If you’re connected to Wi-Fi, someone may have configured it to block external DNS servers. This is often done through parental controls or security settings. You might want to check with the person who manages the router.

Have you tried resetting your network settings again? Also, avoid using third-party DNS apps if you can. Restarting your phone might help, and make sure to check the connection on both Wi-Fi and cellular data. It's tough to troubleshoot further without knowing what exactly you're trying to access or the specific errors you're encountering.
