For approx the last 4 days all devices on my home network have experienced DNS errors when trying to go to a number of web sites. Checking the router I see the DNS IP on the net side are 61.9.194.49 and 61.9.195.193.
A ping to 61.9.194.49 gives me a 79% packet loss.

As a workaround I have currently chnaged DNS settings on all devices from dynamic to 8.8.8.8
I'm guessing my issue may be due to the folowing as seen on the Telstra server status site???
