341879 2005-04-07 06:40:00 Please excuse my lameness....hehe...but how do I set these primary/secondary DNS servers? Are these set on the router? Or is it set in Windows somewhere? Mcam (7363)
341880 2005-04-07 06:42:00 they are normally set on the router, normally under the dns section on the web interface. ILikeLinux (1669)
341881 2005-04-07 06:53:00 A mate just brought round his WinXP Pro laptop.... It was HELL, no google worked unless we went through an http proxy.

I put it through megaproxy first to find a free http proxy, and now google works fine for him.

Strangely Google works fine for my on Gentoo? My family on Xandros can only get to Google.com.au though...

Odd!?!

341882 2005-04-07 06:58:00 I just got an email from a friend of mine, on the same connection - Ihug 256k

He cant access nzoom.com, or ebay.com. I've sent three emails in the last three days to ihug, and not one response.

Its getting very Orcon, isn't it....

341883 2005-04-07 07:01:00 Never send emails to their help desk, or at least dont expect one back.

Also try setting the default dns server as 203.109.252.43 or one of :yuck: xtra's :yuck: ones.

Open Network Connections. Right-click on your connection, Properties, Networking, highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), Properties, and there you can set the DNS addresses.

Anything is better than xtra. Don't know about Orcon, but I have no complaints about Ihug. Faultless. :D

341888 2005-04-09 06:07:00 After switching from Orcon back to Xtra in January I have to say that the connection, latency and reliability has been superb.

No issues at all, I am very happy with Xtra.

Orcon are STILL charging me though!!!! We had a flurry of emails over last few months and even one to apologise and they would back-date the account (up over $150.00 due now apparently) ... and then I get a nasty letter demanding payment or they will disconnect my UBS lol. What UBS?
