Working for me on Release, is it maybe relating to a bad cached DNS entry?
Try reloading?

[yrliou]

@stephendonner I just tried on release & beta with fresh profile, both work for me.
Are there any additional steps, or you did some steps in the default profile before opening a new one which had some previous cached result?

[stephendonner]

@yrliou sadly, still doesn't work for me in a new profile on beta (but works on nightly). I haven't modified any DNS settings, either :-(

Are there any additional steps to try to troubleshoot/debug I can do? Thanks in advance!

So it looks like it's working on all three channels for me as well. However, with 1.23.68 Chromium: 90.0.4430.51, I did see the error that @stephendonner mentions above but the website reloaded by itself within ~2 seconds without me refreshing it/clicking on reload. I tried it ~5 times on new profiles after that and couldn't reproduce what I saw on the first load. But in general, seems like it's working on my Win 10 x64 machine.

1.25.4 Chromium: 90.0.4430.51	1.24.56 Chromium: 90.0.4430.51	1.23.68 Chromium: 90.0.4430.51

Works fine for me as well. Tried with and without setting custom DNS provider in brave://settings/security

[GeetaSarvadnya]

It's working for me on all the channels. I have made any changes to DNS settings in brave://settings/security

1.23.68	1.24.56	1.25.6

Ok I was able to repro the issue on Release channel build 1.23.68 while testing #14690. Error Page showed and even after reloading the page couple of times it didn't load the page. Note I am seeing the issue with a different domain brantly.eth

Also noticed the original site had issues on macOS Release build 1.22.71

Also reproduced on Linux with release channel

Seems like there are a few failed requests for the page after enabling Cloudflare resolver

[stephendonner]

This is now working for me, using

Brave	1.28.37 Chromium: 91.0.4472.124 (Official Build) nightly (x86_64)
Revision	7345a6d1bfcaff81162a957e9b7d52649fe2ac38-refs/branch-heads/4472_114@{#6}

@srirambv how about you?

[srirambv]

Yes this seems to be fixed now for me as well. There is no dealy/errors when loading via cloudflare dns. @stephendonner we should be good to close this one out now
