[SOLVED] Intermittent DNS response when SAB is downloading

Hello Everyone,

 

I have recently installed an UnRAID server with Sabnzbd installed as plugin.  Whenever Sab is downloading outgoing DNS queries seem to fail.  For example, a ping to www.google.com will fail, however, 74.125.255.81 will not.  I've installed a copy of Sab from source to the cache drive and am experiencing the same activity.  Other devices in the network have functional DNS while Sab is downloading.  Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this?

It seems the problem is resolved by using Google's DNS (8.8.8.8 ) as opposed to my internal DNS. 

 

UPDATE: Although the problem was largely fixed when using Google DNS, about a week later the server began have other web based response issues.  I saw high amounts of packet loss during normal operation of the server and ultimately replaced the network card.  This has resolved the slowness and allowed for use of my internal DNS server.
