Minecraft seems to block on SRV record requests when pinging or connecting to any server. My router times out on all SRV requests, causing a huge delay in refreshing servers and a 10 second freeze when connecting to one.

At the very least, it could give some explicit feedback that there is a problem with SRV requests. A workaround is to set DNS servers on your computer and not use the DNS cache on the router. |
