That may be why I don't have as many issues; my DNS is set to my internal server which then has 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 as the two external addresses to check from.

Still getting the odd issue even after moving DNS away from quic, so assume it's the packet loss hitting dns packets

Oddly...I've noticed some "micro" outages on my Spark connection. Seems for a couple of weeks now I'll be playing World of Warships in the evenings and get randomly disconnected...also when playing Wows ---the pings seem to fluctuate a lot more than they did in the past. When they happen -- Twitch will stop streaming too.

Switch it over to my Starlink connection and they magically go away....shrug

It seems can no longer ping the quic DNS servers?

SmokePing showing nothing, as does pinging from command line...

I've not had any issues since moving from quic DNS, but did find I had some issues with my vmware cluster being unhappy and needing a kick in the guts over the weekend.

Seems to have been fairly stable since those two changes.
