Xbox users in Russia are facing widespread connectivity issues due to internet service providers blocking DNS services that allowed the consoles to bypass regional restrictions. This has resulted in users being unable to access Xbox Live, download games, or play multiplayer. The blocking of addresses on port 53, through which Xbox usually sends DNS requests, is causing the consoles to struggle with understanding where to connect. While regular internet and games may still work, console owners are massively complaining about access problems.
