- Arnt 8y agoDoes that have a sensibly working resolver? In my haphazard experience, the networks that block access to UDP port 53 are more than likely to have gelded broken name servers that e.g. serve empty NXERROR results for anything but A/TXT, and receptionists that say, "uh, let me check" and then check that their browser can open the google home page. (Insert invectives here.) I've seen be fixed. Once. One meeting I attended started with a quite broken network, but it was an IETF meeting, and the IETF tools team reconfigured the AP channel layout, the DHCP server and the caching name server at that hotel and after that it was fine.
