Could not resolve host: auth.factorio.com

When attempting to join a multiplayer game, I get a "Connecting to game server...", which after 30-60 seconds, disappears and I'm left with only the background.

I checked the logs of both factorio-previous.log and factorio-current.log and it appears that "Could not resolve host: auth.factorio.com" is the reason I'm unable to finish the connection to the game server.

It appears that auth.factorio.com isn't being resolved. I swapped to Google DNS and the same is still happening.

Yeah, I figured Google would have their sh*t together, but apparently not. I'm using ns1.dnsimple.com for now. Cheers!

I don't believe its googles fault at all, its DynDNS thats getting attacked. Not googles fault.
