Excessive DNS Requests to Avira Subdomains
I have been experiencing issues with my TP-Link router ( TP-Link Deco XE75 Pro ) frequently making excessive DNS requests to Avira subdomains (*.safethings.avira.com) and also DNS root servers (a.root-servers.net) This issue can also be categorized as DNS flood, due to the number of DNS entries. The pattern of these requests aligns with the concerns previously reported by other users.
I appreciate the clarification regarding the use of Avira services in HomeShield and the recent software review that identified flaws in the DNS request logic. However, I would like to confirm that this issue IS NOT resolved with the latest firmware update.
Additionally, I would appreciate further guidance on any additional steps I can take to mitigate these mysterious and superfluous DNS requests. Except for disabling the HomeShield features, as these requests continue to occur regardless of that logic.
Thank you for addressing this issue.
