| 1363795 | 2013-12-31 07:36:00 | Hi Clive, yes, did the trick. Seems the DNS requests of 8.1 confuse the router, adding a manual DNS server address is the bandage! Thanks for that. |

| 1363796 | 2014-01-06 20:46:00 | Wonder if Telecom will bother to roll out a firmware update...? I recommend you log a support call with Telecom so they prioritise rolling out this firmware update This has been a known issue for several months now with this router |

| 1363798 | 2014-01-07 04:19:00 | Seems I fluked avoiding that then, I have my Technicolor in bridge mode and am using an Asus N55U to do the heavy lifting, would that account for the fact that mine is rock solid with the same router? Never had any issues with windows 8 prior to setting up the bridge and 8.1 releasing though. |

| 1363800 | 2014-01-07 04:58:00 | Ah, but I don't have Windows 8.1... Just remembered I *did* have this issue - setting up Windows 8.1 for a friend last year. Couldn't figure out why browsing was going nuts. I guess this was the reason. |

| 1363801 | 2014-01-07 05:02:00 | I too am having a problem with a Linksys AE6000. I have applied the latest Linksys driver 5.0.7.0 but I am still having difficulties. Can someone step me through a manual DNS setup please? | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1363802 | 2014-01-07 05:14:00 | I too am having a problem with a Linksys AE6000. I have applied the latest Linksys driver 5.0.7.0 but I am still having difficulties. Can someone step me through a manual DNS setup please? With W8.1 theres two ways to set a manual DNS on the network adaptor. 1. Easy way -- click on the start button, on the start screen start typing Network and sharing you'll see it appear on the right, click it. 5443 2. Longer way - right click the start button, Control Panel, Network and Sharing. On the window that opens, change adaptor settings ( top left) Right click your connection, Left click Properties, Scroll down the list look for Internet protocol Version 4 ( TCP/IP V4) either double click it, or single click / properties, in the DNS settings Select "Use the Following DNS Server Address" Manually enter in your DNS server address, click OK twice ( 2 windows) and away you go. Follow the yellow brick road below :) 5442 |

| 1363803 | 2014-01-07 06:59:00 | Thanks WT. One last question, being Telecom, would my DNS server address be 192.168.1.1 and if not, how do I find it? | Bryan (147) | ||

That should be the address of your router - which is fine as that will then look up to Telecom's own DNS servers. But you can manually enter Telecom's DNS addresses into your network configuration if you wanted. |
