The Private DNS feature on my smartwatch works very badly. Most of the time it can't even connect, displaying a message saying "Network has no Internet access. Private DNS server cannot be accessed." I have tried different DNS servers such as 1.1.1.1, NextDNS and AdGuard with no success.
Has anyone managed to get it work?
This issue already happened to me once on my Pixel 7 Pro, but eventually it got fixed with an update.
I have the same problem.

Hi,
I have been fighting with my Desire the last days to connect to my company network and e-mail without any success.
There are serious issues with Android wrt handling certificates and proxies.
For the moment I still haven't found anything which will allow me to access the internet from work via WiFi through a proxy. Did any one manage to do this with success ?
Apparently it is possible to use a proxy with Android 1.5 and 1.6 but only for browsing, not for other services, but this doesn't work with the Desire ;-)
Regarding certificates, Android doesn't support .p7b or .pcs certificates, so I was afraid I wouldn't be able to connect at all to the company WiFi. To my surprise when I tried to connect by entering MSCHAP it actually worked, so this is worth a try if you have issues with certificates to connect to WiFi.
Another problem of the certificates is that I need a certificate to connect via SSL to my e-mail server. Unfortunately Android doesn't support installation of .p7b or .pcs certificates, so I don't manage to connect. Did anyone encounter a solution for this problem ?
In global I am really surprised by the lack of support for standard functionality like certificates and proxy in Android. All my colleagues using Iphone have no issues at all with this
Kind regards
Ok so I'm having an issue with my home PPTP VPN.
Whenever I try to connect with the stock android VPN client, sometimes (rarely) it will connect just fine. However, most of the time I get "Server hung up. The username and password you entered could be incorrect." I know the username and password is correct.
I read somewhere that this is due to something with T-Mobile's IP assignment tables or something, is that true?
Will this tun.ko for VPN thing I'm seeing in the Android Development forum fix this issue?
When I got the phone, setup was taking forever to download apps and do everything it needed to get to the internet over wifi. I had no problems with my s8+ or the 30 other devices on my home wifi, but for some reason the pixel 2 xl was having issues. Speed tests are fine getting full upload and download, but going places and making searches were hit and miss (dns)
I run a windows server at home that handles all of my dns. It forwards to google's dns servers. So still having issues, I hard coded the pixel xl with a static ip and pointed to my dns server, still had problems. So then I pointed to googles dns servers and bipassed mine, and things are normal.
So, I'm wondering what the pixel xl could be doing with dns requests that my windows dns doesnt like. Anyone else run into these types of issues with oreo or your pixel?
Thanks!
Greetings
I too was having this issue. I would randomly get DNS related issues. My network config is slightly different. I use Google WiFi and the DHCP from this system sets the DNS on my devices to the router.
I followed what you did and has been working 100% since! I have an open ticket with Google and will update them on our findings.
Thank you!
Interesting, I know that google wifi also is a mesh system, like my netgear orbi. I wonder if it's related? Please keep in touch!

It might be related, however, all 3 pucks are using Ethernet back-haul and no other devices are having issues. Waiting to hear back from Google at this point.
I'm seeing the same thing, only my DNS server is pihole running on a Debian box. I think I might spin up another instance of pihole and point my pixel to that server so I can isolate the traffic.
My setup is a Pixel 2 XL on the 8.1 beta connecting to Google WiFi.
I'm trying to get my Z2 connected by IPSec to my LAN. Part of that is I want to have it always get a known IP address.
Well the mechanism that most DHCP servers use is setting the MAC to assign a known IP. But checking the logs I find that the Z2 changes MAC every time I establish a new VPN connexion! WTH?
I mean, normally I would see this as a benefit, but I need to be able to pin down what is what so I can give it its rightful IP address, so I can find it later.
When I check interfaces with ipconfig, there are about a dozen of them, and the one getting the VPN IP is tun0.
Nogat 7.1.1, rooted. Anyone know what's going on here?
No one's getting random MACs...
Hello everyone,
as noted in the title of this thread, I cannot connect to L2TP/IPSec VPN Server from my phone (Redmi Note 8 Pro, running MIUI 11.0.3 stock).
I've done extensive troubleshooting and appears that phone never even contacts the server. When i configure everything and toggle the VPN, it will try to connect but never does, and then times out.
I'm watching the logs on the server, nothing appears.
I'm watching tcpdump on the server, no packet is even received from phone.
I've connected to WiFi network from i which i know i can connect to VPN (for example from PC or my MikroTik router) and it cannot even connect from that network.
I've enabled packet sniffer on root MikroTik router to sniff the packets, filtering MAC address of my phone, and guess what... When i click on VPN, it doesn't even try to connect to VPN serever. VPN server IP address doesn't even appear on sniff.
I'm wondering why is this happening, is anyone else having issues with L2TP/IPSec VPN? How do i inform Xiaomi of this issue since I've placed couple of feedbacks back in the day, never received an answer and those issues still persists so i don't even thing they are reading the feedback that is sent to them from phone app.
Hoping to get to the bottom of this!
Any help would be greatly appreciated !
Any chance you can try the OpenVPN app? I used to have an issue with my old phone where sometimes it would say connected but it wouldn't be. With the rn8pro, OpenVPN works every time.
Edit: try posting on the Mi forums for a better chance of a response from someone at Xiaomi

Might not just be Xiaomi....https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN/issues/571
I would hate having two VPN servers installed at the same time. There are times when i want to connect my root mikrotik router to VPN server i question to forward all web traffic via VPN, unfortunately, OpenVPN support is very limited on MikroTik , there are new cipher suites missing and with new OpenVPN servers in place it's impossible to connect tik to OpenVPN.
I know however that OpenVPN app works great with android, but it's weird that native L2TP doesn't seem to be working at all.
I could fall back to PPTP maybe. Both Android and MikroTik works flawlessly with PPTP. But... It's PPTP..
Thanks, i will try posting to Xiaomi forums as well.
