Does anyone have advice on how to use public wifi alongside DNS resolver?
Many public wifi network works need you to use their DNS, so they can redirect you to a gated "accept ToS" screen (and may even require re-approval every 30-60 minutes).
To resolve the issue is so frustrating:
1. realize the internet stopped working
2. ping google.com, wait for timeouts to show up.
3. try to guess if its a ISP issue, but then realize the wifi probably timed out.
4. Switch the dns. Flush DNS.
5. try to access a non-TLS domain
6. approve the gate
7. switch the DNS back
