When I'm browsing the web, why do I get 'DNS Server Error'
sometimes?
Usually the website URL address is incorrect. If the address
is correct, there might be too many other users trying to
access the same site at once. When this occurs, try the URL
2 or 3 times, it may go through. It is possible the server
you are trying to reach is not working.
