| 292733 | 2004-11-16 03:13:00 | Hello :) Today I have been getting DNS error messages all over the place e.g. for example I get DNS error messages or "sitenamehere.tld could not be found. Please check the name and try again" when I try & access Press F1 pressf1.pcworld.co.nz or http: www.webdrive.co.nz, http: www.aardvark.co.nz http://www.kiwirant.co.nz etc I am running Win Xp Pro with SP2 RC 2 & this computer is network to two other computers I dont have a router, only an internal ADSL modem which is in one of the two other computers I am Using Firefox 0.9.3 IE 6.0, Mailwaster 1.33 & Iam on Xtra jet stream explore Any ideas on what might be causing this?? PS: on the gateway computer we are using Zone alarm firewall |

| 292736 | 2004-11-16 03:52:00 | You could use mine ;). Or, better option, use the Orcon ones: 210.55.12.1 210.55.12.2 They always work:) Cheers George |

| 292740 | 2004-11-16 06:16:00 | Hi all When I was on dial-up, I was getting them all the time too. A friend of mine who is still on dial up is getting heaps and he recons his speed is down. One might leap to the conclusion that Telecom is doing it to attract Jetstream customers. It worked with me. No more DNS error yaaho. Craigb |

But I think I will stick with orcon's DNS servers for now :), Does any one know what Ihugs dns servers are?( I might try theres next ;)) |
