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.

https://dnschecker.org/#A/tmp-wmm.com Looks like it resolves fine globally and resolves fine to me

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.
