DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE for local sites

I am using the latest Brave version ( Version 1.77.97) on MacOs. I am using Brave for local development of sites. However I always receive DNS_PROBE_POSSIBLE if I try to access a local site. localhost works fine, but for example: clientsite.test is not working. I am using Dnsmasq and laravel valet for managing the local dns entries.

This happens only in Brave. Safari and Firefox are working fine.

IF you have added extensions . . .

Test, by disabling ALL of the extensions that you have added, and then try:

Install extensions, individually - no combinations (yet) - and test

Install in a sequence, one-at-a-time . . . and test . . . leaving any anti-virus and adblocking extensions to be installed, last - the anti-virus extension definitely last . . .


After a few restarts and updates, the NAS is now back where it belongs. Thank you for your reply.
