DNS SERVER MESSAGE HELP

 

Why do I need to keep rebooting my sky hub everytime I log onto sky go?

It has just begun recently and seems to be continuing.

Very annoying.

If its a dns error then i would consider changing dns at device level to cloudflare or google dns until it is resolved . I believe sky are aware of it and i am getting the non existant domain and domain not resolved messages and now tv goes down a couple of times a day

Unfortunately, for me at least, you cannot change dns on streaming sticks (well roku at least) and smart tv's
