Anyone else spend the morning thinking the problem was their setup? I've been flushing my system DNS cache, Chrome's DNS cache, changing DNS servers, rebooting my router, turning VPN on/off, etc.
- mudge 10y agoYep, I did the same.
- stuntmachine 10y agoYeah. :/ It happened to be at the same time I was getting things configured to connect to a new VPN that I hadn't used before for the first time. Until about 7am today my home network was a 10.0.0.0/8 network. VPN kept bombing in the last phase of connecting and I couldn't figure out why, so I thought it was an IP conflict with my internal network range. So naturally, I then went into my router and changed my subnet for my entire home network to the more common 192.168.1.0/24 range to see if it'd help. It didn't. Until suddenly VPN "just worked" -- which makes me wonder if I needed to change my network at all to begin with. Then I started experiencing all sorts of weird issues where the Internet seemed to disappear from one minute until the next. Then I hit IRC when things finally stabilized and see "Did you hear about Dyn?". My reaction: wut. TL;DR: I rearchitected my home network at 7am for no reason.
