DNS_Probe_Finished_No_Internet

So I have a Kyocera Hydro Vibe and I have an issue here. I fixed my first problem now I have another one. So I have connected to my home wifi and I have great bars . But, when I try to browse I get the error message above in the title. How can I fix this any ideas?
 
The first thing to try is of course reboot your phone and your router. Unless you manually alter them, the DNS addresses that get used on your home network are provided by your ISP so rebooting your phone just resets all on your phone but maybe more importantly rebooting your router will reset any glitches that might be the source problem.

If you're still having a connectivity problem, try going into the Application manager in your phone's Settings and find your browser app listing. Open it and tap 'Force stop' and then 'Clear cache'. If your browser continues to show that DNS error message, try installing a DNS changing app like this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.burakgon.dnschanger&hl=en
Apps like this allow you to alter the DNS addresses that your phone uses, switching from the ISP supplied ones to a public DNS.

If you're still having this problem after all that, try installing this Netalyzr app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.berkeley.icsi.netalyzr.android&hl=en
You use it scan your home network and it will do a thorough analysis, hopefully in the results there will be some items flagged that point out what might be going on.

The last app definitely helped :). It told me what was going on but now I need to figure out how to fix it. I will try rebooting my router again tho
 
Which ISP do you use, and is your router an ISP-supplied modem/router or do you have your own router?
Do you have other devices also connected to your home network and are any of them also having issues accessing web sites in general? Still wondering if your issue is just something with your phone, your WiFi, or your overall online connection (cable or DSL?).
 
There are other devices connected to my isp. It is a netgear. DSL. Sorry if I'm not using these terms right as well I'm just learning what they mean.

OK, so are any of your other devices also having any issues getting online access? If so that tends to point to on an issue with your Netgear router, most likely just some random configuration setting. If not, that's an indicator the problem is isolated just on your phone.
