This means that server services in the FRITZ!Box home network cannot be accessed via the domain name. You may see one of the following error messages:“DNS timed out”“DNS request timed out” Caused For security reasons, the FRITZ!Box suppresses DNS responses that refer to IP addresses in your own home network. This is a security feature of the FRITZ!Box to protect against so-called DNS rebinding attacks. If you use a FritzBox, you must first make the following settings in the FritzBox menu:

  1. In the FRITZ!Box user interface, click on Heimnetz.

  2. Heimnetz Click in the menu Netzwerk.
