DNS Issues

[Vertago]

Ok so for the past 24 hours I have had connection issues where i can connect to some sites but not others. For instance I can connect to edgegamers.com but cannot connect to ventrillo (voice.edgegamers.org). I live on a school campus and i am almost 100% sure the issue in on their end because i have contacted others around campus and they are having the same issue. But I was wondering if i could do anything on my end?

Instead of ping, use tracert.

Example:
tracert www.google.com


It doesn't appear to be a DNS problem, otherwise you would be seeing a
message such as "Could not locate Primary DNS" or "Primary DNS could not
locate IP" or "DNS could not resolve hostname".

Well, I'm no networking expert, but it doesn't appear to be a problem on your end.

It is probably due to the ipv6 upgrade. They are going to do a nationwide test on ipv6 June 1st. I've noticed a lot of lag, especially from tier 1 providers. I doubt there's anything you can do about it.
