You mean, when it fails again. And, let me guess, I should write the 8.8.8.8
in the "DNS" field in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf.

I observed this, the last time it didn't work: When I logged in to the shell
server of my web (and more) provider (in-berlin.de), and did the "ping
vwysk.now-dns.net" there, then IT WORKED. Even though it didn't work on my
home machine. 

To me, this looks like a strong hint that there's something wrong with
either my resolver, the name server in my router or the name server of my
internet provider.
