Hi there - my internet isn’t working for the last couple of days. When I troubleshoot the problem the error message I am getting says “windows can’t communicate with device or resource (primary DNS server)” can you tell me how to fix the problem? I have tried turning the modem off and back on and restarting the computer. I am located in The Gap qld 4061. Thanks heaps!

Hi @ClaireP,

 

For customers experiencing any issues with their service, we recommend the best thing to do first is check if there's an outage.

 

Check our Service Status page for any known outages.

 

If you're on NBN, we have created this article that can guide you on How to Check for NBN Network Outage

 

If there are no known outages in your area, you can proceed with the troubleshooting steps indicated on this link : Troubleshooting No Internet Connection

 

In your case, we are suspecting a possible internal wiring issue causing the no connectivity and one of the case engineers will be in touch to further discuss how the issue can be resolved.
