A Domain Name System (DNS) is a directory that translates domain names or hostnames into Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Due to this process, users can easily access websites on the internet through web browsers.
Sometimes, certain DNS error messages can be encountered when accessing a website, one of them being the “DNS server not responding” message. This means that the web browser can’t connect to the site because the DNS server fails to map hostnames to IP addresses correctly.
There are many causes to the “DNS server not responding” error, from misconfigured network adapters to incorrect DNS server addresses. Fortunately, most of these problems lie on the user’s end and can be solved without much effort.
