Domain suddenly not resolving internal IP anymore
Hello I bought a domain (using Cloudflares registrar) about 4 days ago and setup it up to point at a local IP in my network. This has been working fine for the last couple of days. But now I just get "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" in my browsers and on other devices in my network as well. The IP itself I can open just fine and if I use the dnschecker it also shows the right IP. Now I'm a newby when it comes to DNS and such so I don't really know where I should even start to look. I already tried to change the A record to another IP like 1.1.1.1 but that didn't do anything.

It's pointing to a local IP
I don't know how well Chrome/others handles resolving domains to internal IPs, I know hosts.txt is an easy way to make that work since it's system-local resolution
Are you intending this to point to a local ip?
Yes and it has been working like this for the past two or three days.

Looks like it resolves fine globally and resolves fine to me
DNS Checker
DNS Checker - DNS Check Propagation Tool
Check DNS Propagation worldwide. DNS Checker provides name server propagation check instantly. Changed nameservers so do a DNS lookup and check if DNS and nameservers have propagated.
So, somewhere in your dns cache layer I guess it got busted
You can try clearing cache but it very much depends where it's cached
It wasn't the cache but you reminded me of a comment on a youtube video.
My router has a safety for DNS rebinding and I forgot to add my domain and the wildcard for my sub domains to it.
