Hi,

After first shutdown after install, I can’t access to web wifi and ethernet inclued.

## Description I can't for the end of me find out anything more about this. Whatever site I try to reach, it always says "this site can't be reached" with an errror DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE. For e.g. google.com it also says "google.com’s DNS address could not be found. Diagnosing the problem.". Firefox work, qutebrowser works, pinging 8.8.8.8 works, pinging google.com works, chatting on Messenger (desktop app) works, but browsing sites doesn't. I tried disabling extensions, resetting settings to defaults, completely wiping the application and reinstalling 3 times, but it doesn't help (somehow, Brave still remembers my open sites through those reinstalls??). If I find out IP adress of google.com through the dig command for example, and paste that adress into Brave, it will instantly change to google.com and the DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE error. I don't know if it is related, but I flushed dns cache recently, changed the hostname of my PC too. But again, other browser works. ## Steps to Reproduce 1. ??? 2. ??? 3. ??? ## Actual result: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/15998217/113600957-08d2b780-9641-11eb-840f-f2838a62d5c3.png) ## Expected result: Actually being able to browse. ## Reproduces how often: ??? ## Brave version (brave://version info) ``` Brave 1.22.71 Chromium: 89.0.4389.114 (Official Build) (x86_64) Revision 1ea76e193b4fadb723bfea2a19a66c93a1bc0ca6-refs/branch-heads/4389@{#1616} OS macOS Version 10.14.6 (Build 18G8022) JavaScript V8 8.9.255.24 User agent Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/89.0.4389.114 Safari/537.36 Command Line /Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser -psn_0_12229545 --enable-dom-distiller --disable-domain-reliability --no-pings --extension-content-verification=enforce_strict --extensions-install-verification=enforce --origin-trial-public-key=bYUKPJoPnCxeNvu72j4EmPuK7tr1PAC7SHh8ld9Mw3E=,fMS4mpO6buLQ/QMd+zJmxzty/VQ6B1EUZqoCU04zoRU= --sync-url=https://sync-v2.brave.com/v2 --lso-url=https://no-thanks.invalid --variations-server-url=https://variations.brave.com/seed --enable-features=PasswordImport,ReducedReferrerGranularity,WebUIDarkMode,SafetyTip,AutoupgradeMixedContent,PrefetchPrivacyChanges,LegacyTLSEnforced --disable-features=TextFragmentAnchor,TabHoverCards,AutofillServerCommunication,DirectSockets,SubresourceWebBundles,SignedExchangePrefetchCacheForNavigations,AutofillEnableAccountWalletStorage,WebOTP,NotificationTriggers,LangClientHintHeader,NetworkTimeServiceQuerying,SafeBrowsingEnhancedProtection,SignedExchangeSubresourcePrefetch,PrivacySettingsRedesign,IdleDetection,SafeBrowsingEnhancedProtectionMessageInInterstitials --flag-switches-begin --load-media-router-component-extension=0 --flag-switches-end Executable Path /Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser Profile Path /Users/jim/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default Variations 7146a73c-3f4a17df ``` ## Version/Channel Information: - Can you reproduce this issue with the current release?

Thanks, but it doesn’t work. The issue is not also with Brave but with all browsers. I think I have something to change in DNS OS setting but I don’t know how.

See if anything here helps:

[SOLVED]Problem with Internet connection after VPN fail | Page 2 | Linux.org - there was also some mention of IPv6 being removed/disabled. Go to Network settings and make sure IPv6 is disabled. I have to ensure IPv6 is also disabled at the router as my ISP does not use IPv6 either.

Problem with boot sequence or fault in motherboard, also the adapters might be faulty
Possibly check the boot sequence first

Thanks. It works when I edit nameserver 8.8.8.8. Do you know to turn it permanently?

Change your DNS settings in the router, saves you having to change DNS for all devices.
