Pretty much what the title says. I'm running Windows 8 x64, using a USB wireless adapter.

Things I have tried

-ipconfig renew/release/flushndns plus system restart

-trying various DNS' (Google, etc.)

-different wireless adapters

It works fine with my ISP's DNS, which is OpenDNS. Thanks for the help, and sorry for any errors or any missing info.

    Have you tried disabling IPv6? Seems to be a suggestion on the Google forums. Jan 29, 2014 at 9:23
  • Just tried it. Didn't do anything.

  • You don't describe what actions you perform to get the error. Does it occur when you go to every host every time? Aug 8, 2014 at 6:50

I had these problems for weeks using chrome on public wifi. I fixed it finally by disabling the "Built-in Asynchronous DNS" flag and now I have no problems. Type chrome://flags into the address bar and see all the chrome flags. Ctrl-F to search the page for "dns" and find the flag - disable it! Worked for me!

I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro x64 on my desktop and had the same DNS problems with Chrome, even on a wired connection. I updated the driver for my network adapter and all DNS errors went away. It's been three weeks now and not a single problem.

Just another troubleshooting tip.
