DIscord Users

Hi all,

@JonoH spotted this thread this morning: https://twitter.com/discordapp/status/1174864360604340224

It seems to be referring to some DNS issues with Discord causing problems with image loading and perhaps getting the installer?

Has anyone spotted this?   Could someone give us some tests?

Thanks!

Re: DIscord Users

I've been having an issue with images in discord for a few days now but now I can't launch the app at all. Happy to run some tests for you

Re: DIscord Users

It seems that it's a DNS issue and since we have a Hub One router, I can't change network-wide DNS settings.

Re: DIscord Users

@ChildishGiant Thanks.  That's not good 😕  Do you have Safeguard enabled? Or ever had it enabled?

 

@JonoH can you look at this on Monday for me and have a chat with @dave

Re: DIscord Users

Safeguard isn't on and I don't think it has been previously. A workaround for now is to set your OS DNS to 1.1.1.1 but this needs doing on each device that's having the issue

Re: DIscord Users

1.1.1.1 will give you faster DNS lookups than Plusnet's nameservers, so it is worth leaving it as a permanent change.

Re: DIscord Users

@ChildishGiant Hi!  We can't replicate this on our test lines.  Are you able to replicate it on demand if you change back to the Plusnet DNS addresses?

Re: DIscord Users

Hey all.  We can't replicate this at all, so we're assuming it was a transitory issue.

If anyone else comes across it, or replicates it, reply on here and we'll have another look!

Re: DIscord Users

Not sure if this is worth posting in but I've that issue now. judging by discords twitter feed rn I'm not the only one.

works fine on my O2 mobile tether, but plusnet not so much

even if I change my DNS to 1.1.1.1 it's not working.

No this is the voice Comms.
Looks like anyone on Plusnet trying to access EU hosted voice chat can't connect. Loads of tweets on this ATM

Thanks.  Can you PM me your username.  Hopefully some of the others on that Twitter thread will hop here and pass over their usernames so we can see if there is anything in common on our side.
