'ipconfig /renew' fixes server not found error in Nightly. I should have to do this every 2 minutes...

I'm running Nightly 41.0a1 (2015-05-13) and very regularly I get 'Server not found' when clicking on links or just on part of the web page I'm viewing (often the sideline ads) like the local news paper nzherald.co.nz. But when I run ipconfig /renew in a dos command window, I can do a 'retry' and all comes right. IE does not have this problem.

People here tends to use mainly Firefox Release and Beta builds at most.

The more bleeding edge Nightly channel can sometimes have issues due to checkins almost everyday which means updates each of those days.

A number of Nightly testers hang out in http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

That's the first thing I do with any issue but this time, it does not solve the issue.
