I recently changed my DNS server to Google's (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and ran the necessary commands to reset it. However, I'm still encountering an issue where it says 'THE SITE CANNOT BE REACHED' and shows the error DNS_PROB_POSSIBLE. I'm not really sure what steps to take next to resolve this.

What specific sites are you trying to access? Are any sites loading at all?
Have you checked if you have a VPN or Apple's IP privatization features enabled? Sometimes those can interfere with your connection.
No, I don't have either of those set up.
You didn't provide a lot of details, and that makes troubleshooting tough. Can you clarify where you changed the DNS—was it on your computer or your router? Also, how exactly are you connected to the internet? If the connection itself is down, changing DNS settings won't help at all. Double-check that your internet is working.
I changed it on my PC, and yes, my internet connection is fine. Sorry if I wasn't clear; I'm not super tech-savvy.
Most sites work fine; I'm just trying to access LINK.MSGSNDR.COM for a class I'm in.
