unable to connect to .mil on home wifi

I saw another discussion post explaining the same issue I'm having, but there was no actual solution posted to that thread. Whenever i try to access any ".mil" website, I get the popup "This site can't be reached" and the error code "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN". I have tried multiple devices and multiple browsers. When I try on my phone when connected to the wifi, same issue. As soon as i disconnect from the wifi to use cellular and reload the website, it loads instantly. So I know the issue is with the ISP. I am having no other issues with my xfinity home wifi, just .mil sites. Help!

Hello @user_71fp4x If you are having trouble accessing certain website you will want to open a request at https://spa.xfinity.com/help under the Advanced Security option. This will get sent over to our Customer Security Assurance team who can assist with accessing the sites getting blocked.

Was there a solution to this? I'm having the exact same issue, and Xfinity closed my help ticket in about two hours without an a solution; "there is no Advanced Security block related to the reported website" was the response I received. Obviously, something is preventing access, since the sites load on my phone upon turning off WiFi. Please advise.

@user_iwq6ty​ Still have yet to get one. I went to the local Xfinity store near base, and they said they have never heard of that issue before and said it could be my router, which to me doesn't make any sense. But what do I know, I'm just a computer network system technician.
