FlushDNS, Release, Registerdns, and Renew parameters: How to Fix Err Connection Timed Out DNS Error

DNS

To get around this problem, DNS information is shared among many servers. But information for sites visited recently is also cached locally on client computers. Chances are that you use google.com several times a day. Instead of your computer querying the DNS name server for the IP address of google.com every time, that information is saved on your computer so it doesn’t have to access a DNS server to resolve the name with its IP address. Additional caching can occur on the routers used to connect clients to the internet and on the servers of the user’s Internet Service Provider (ISP). With so much caching going on, the number of queries that make it to DNS name servers is much lower than it would seem. See the link for a similar error “Unable to register a client to Domain“.
