Failed to send results to WS? Check DNS/use proxy.

Post by ToeBlister »

I was having issue trying to transfer completed WUs to these servers:
150.136.14.110
13.90.152.57
129.213.40.229
52.224.109.74

Kinda strange to see a whole bunch of servers affected. Apart from mskcc servers (which they are upgrading), I do not have major issues with returning completed WUs. Firewalls are checked and exceptions are defined.

The only thing I changed is making Cloudflare (1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1) my default DNS in Windows setting.

Since I already have a VPN app installed on my system, I turned it on and got my internet traffic routed to through server.

Then, the WUs that failed in transfer went through.

Is there a correlation between Cloudflare DNS or merely a coincidental finding?

If you face similar issues, try it and see if it works for you.
