If you mistype a hostname in the browser and DNS lookup fails, they return a valid IP for a landing page with an ad. AT&T doesn't do it for my service, but at some point I had it with Time Warner cable, IIRC. You fix it by setting your DNS to (haha) Google's.
- gerdesj 6y agoTry 9.9.9.9 and 1.1.1.1. There are many other external DNS services that don't break AD and eDirectory. You can also run your own but I'll grant you that isn't for everyone.
