Prixel 6 Pro shows me at home "the private dns server cannot be accessed".

I have not changed anything in my Next DNS settings on my smartphone or in the admin area of the website in the last 7 days. However, my Pixel 6 Pro (Android 13 with patches from 5th of January 2023) has been regularly giving this error message for a few days now.

My workaround:

I then activate flight mode and after that it runs until the next error message. Strange. I have never had this problem since I started using NExtDNS.

Does anyone know advice?

Thank you very much.

Chris

    Ich have changed the filterlists from oisd to easylist(s). I don't know if this is related or can be related at all, anyway I don't have the error for 3 hours now. Let's see if it stays like this.

      Chris Maybe something changed with android?

      I can not help directly as I have no up to date android devices to test anything on. 

      What happens when using a different provider for private DNS option?

    I've noticed this error myself on my Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 when configuring NextDNS DoT in Android settings.  Primarily, I use NextDNS DoH via AdGuard, so it's not a huge problem now.  But an issue, nonetheless.

      Scudd found my issue, I had set my routers DNS to point to NextDNS and this seemed to conflict with the Private DNS of the phone. Setting my mobile device within the router to bypass the DNS IP fixed this issue.

      Scudd I don't quite understand your solution. I want my phone's internet traffic to go through NextDNS as well, even when I leave the house. What does "bypass" mean in the router context?

      Isso acontece devido a algumas configurações dos roteadores Wi-Fi que não permitem o acesso via DNS Privado, e com isso instalei o NextDNS Android, que então usou a VPN e, assim, foi possível corrigir esse erro e acesso de qualquer lugar e de qualquer roteador wifi que não permita DoT no DNS Privado, recomendo fazer isso.

      Mas há um pequeno problema com o NextDNS para Android ou iOS que ele só reconhece IPv4 e não IPv6.

    Have the SAME PrivateDNS problem in these days with my new Honor Magic5 Pro with android 13. So sad. Had the same problem also with my previous Magic4 Pro with android 12. The bug is still there in NextDNS.

    No problem with different private dns. Why this bug has not been fixed yet?

    Have you tried disabling Cache boost for example? Any difference?

    We need a solution asap

    It's not a bug. It's working fine. How many people use your network?
