549507 2007-05-13 11:00:00 Anyone else having trouble with connecting via slingshot? Seems to run ok when i'm using utorrent, but try to connect with firefox and almost every night this week i've had a delay..usually up to 1/2 an hour. On the one time i managed to reach their help desk (55 minute wait) i was told they were having a dns issue and engineers were attempting to fix it. Heavy torrent user and starting to get paranoid! limepile (96)

I haven't had any problems. Maybe it is something to do with your exchange.

549509 2007-05-13 11:27:00 I haven't had any problems....Same, but then I'm also not using their DNS servers. Next time you have issues try this DNS server 208.67.222.222. Should work fine :D Myth (110)
549510 2007-05-13 12:15:00 Thanks for that Myth, your DNS server is working for me, still a bit slow but hey, thats NZ broadband for you. I'll see how it goes over the next few days and report back. limepile (96)
