Setting Desktop App to Perform Multiple Router ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

Are you experiencing issues with your desktop app connecting to multiple routers, resulting in an ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error? This article will guide you through the steps to resolve this issue and ensure seamless connectivity.

Causes of ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error can be caused by several factors, including:

• Poor internet connection
• Incorrect DNS server settings
• Firewall or security software blocking the connection
• Router settings issues

Step 1: Check DNS Server Settings

To troubleshoot ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error, you need to check your DNS server settings. You can do this by following these steps:

Open PowerShell and run the command: Get-DnsClientServerAddress

Save the DNS servers listed in the output. Now, you need to verify which DNS server is being used by your desktop app. To do this, follow these steps:

Open the Settings app on your desktop and navigate to Network & Internet > Status. Scroll down and click on the "Change adapter options" link.

Right-click on the Ethernet connection and select "Properties". In the Properties window, scroll down and click on the "TCP/IPv4" or "TCP/IPv6" tab, depending on your internet connection type.

Click on the "Advanced" button and select the "DNS" tab. Click on the "Edit" button next to the DNS server address and enter the IP address of the DNS server you want to use. Click "OK" to close all the windows.

Step 2: Verify Router Settings

Router settings issues can also cause ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error. To troubleshoot this, you need to verify your router settings. You can do this by following these steps:

Connect to your router using a web browser and navigate to the "Advanced Settings" section.

Verify that the DHCP server is enabled and set to obtain an IP address automatically. If the DHCP server is disabled, enable it and set it to obtain an IP address automatically.

Verify that the DNS server settings match the DNS servers listed in the output of the Get-DnsClientServerAddress command.

Step 3: Reset Router to Factory Settings

If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to reset your router to its factory settings. To do this, follow these steps:

Press the "Reset" button on your router using a pin or a paperclip. Hold the button for 10-15 seconds to reset the router to its factory settings.

Once the router is reset, log in to your router using the default admin username and password.

Change the admin username and password to a new one and save the changes.

Step 4: Update Router Firmware

Outdated router firmware can also cause ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error. To update your router firmware, follow these steps:

Connect to your router using a web browser and navigate to the "Advanced Settings" section.

Click on the "Firmware Update" button and select the latest firmware version available. Follow the on-screen instructions to update the firmware.

Conclusion

ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error can be caused by several factors, including poor internet connection, incorrect DNS server settings, firewall or security software blocking the connection, and router settings issues. To resolve this issue, you need to troubleshoot each of these factors step by step.
