Hi,
I use a hotmail.com mail account, and since firefox 50.1.0 pdf files attached to mails I receive sometimes loads and sometimes not. When they aren't loaded it is stuck with a message in the bottom of the page that says "Looking up attachment.outlook.office.net..." but never ends.
I've contacted with the outlook technical support and we finished when they told me to try with another browser, I tried with midori and didn't worked neither, but when they told me to try it with the browser in my phone cell it worked well. So the problem isn't in their servers, is in my ArchLinux.
I've tried to change settings in firefox to open them with Atril instead the pdf viewer embedded in firefox, but nothing changes since the viewer does not get to receive nothing to show.
I've tried too the solutions in here: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/vie … ading-them , but none of them have worked it out.
Any other suggestion?

If it did work in 50.0.2 and does neither in 50.1.0 nor midori, the browser update will not have been the only change (downgrade FF to see whether it still works w/ 50.0.2)
Adblocker? Firewall? "Blocking" via /etc/hosts?
Try chromium.
Use the inspector in either chromium or midori when trying to open the pdf, watch out for error messages, locate the file in the "network" tab and try to download the URL directly (wget/curl) - if you get any.
Cheat MS: install an addon that allows to alter the useragent and tell hotmail that you're Edge on Windows 10

Downgraded to 50.0.2 but does not work anymore.
Adblocker? Firewall? "Blocking" via /etc/hosts?
Disabling Adblock plus did nothing. Firewall, I just use the router one. And blocking via hosts.conf, there's no block there, just ""order hosts,bind" and "multi on"" nothing else.
Try chromium.
With chromium works.

Using the instpector in Chromium I think that I've identify which is the file's url and I've tried to download with wget. Wget hasn't been able to download the file neither:

Here I kill wget with Ctrl+c because it isn't doing anything else, and this is the final output:

The strange thing is that with chromium it works when with Firefox, Midori and wget does not.
I've done a firefox refresh too, but didn't work neither.
I have to say that it is not only related to pdf files, the embedded images in the mail does not load neither.
What else can I try to make it work in Firefox?

You got to put the URL into quotes (use single ones ie. ', not ") for wget. Try again to see whether the issue is restricted to FF.

my spanish is a little hazy, but the ping/wget output sounds like the server name could not be resolved while dig works => your resolver is fucked up.

hahaha, for this task your spanish is working well.

Which IPs should be there?

None of them answers to ping.
Should I contact with my internet provider? Or can I put there others?

Looks like they belong to your ISP.
try removing "search home" and adding (on top) "nameserver 8.8.8.8" (this change won't persist!)
cat /etc/resolvconf.conf
edit: dns servers don't have to echo, but
dig @62.81.16.213 google.com
shouold work - and does not.
It's stunning you can use the internet at all (beyond some cached domain names)

That did the trick.
Good job seth!!!
Now I have to find some good DNS resolvers and make the changes persistant.
Thank you for you incalculable help seth! Thank you very much!

You can edit /etc/resolvconf.conf to add custom DNS servers .
Find public DNS servers: http://public-dns.info/
8.8.8.8 is one of googles DNS servers.
Notice that the provider sees any domain ("hot-porn.tv" ;-) you query.
And you should contact your ISP on the matter, yes.

Seems rare to me that I've used namebench and the fastest DNS resolvers it has sugested didn't resolv attachment.outlook.office.net well neither in firefox. Nevertheless I've found some that work fine in addition to 8.8.8.8.
