Yikes. That sounds like a "fun" problem. Sorry, bro.

You say it seems to be a DNS problem. Why do you think that?

There are info screens on iPhones and Androids that will show you IP
address & DNS settings, though they are often difficult to find. My
Android will happily set DNS1 & 2 to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 if you don't
specify. Do you block devices that want to use their own DNS settings?
