I recently installed home assitant on a windows pc with Oracle VirtualBox. When I try to access from the phone or that device I have no problems but if I try to access from my computer this message comes out and I can’t enter the site:
Unable to reach the site
On can’t find homeassistant.localdns address. We are analyzing the issue.

That part of the message I do not understand.
Who are the “we”?
And how can they analyze it?
It suggest a cloud service that is being monitored, like a DNS service, but .local is a reserved mDNS domain and should never be handled by DNS servers.
This might indicate an issue with your ISP that might give you issues further down the line, because mDNS is used quite a lot by IoT devices.
