I've noticed that sometimes when a particular VM/ service is having issues, they all seem to hang. For example, I have a VM hosting my DNS (pihole) and another hosting my media server (jellyfin). If Jellyfin crashes for some reason, my internet in the entire house also goes down because it seems DNS is unable to be reached for a minute or so while the Jellyfin VM recovers.

Is this expected, and is there a way to prevent it?

Very nice of you to offer. I made a few changes (routing my problem Jellyfin client directly to the Jellyfin server and cutting out the NGINX hop, as well as limiting the bandwidth of that client incase the line is getting saturated).

I'll try to report back if there's any updates.
