Not sure that I understand what you mean by "bypass the router"; I
don't use it for DNS directly, but packages have to pass through it.
Perhaps I'm misinterpreting the symptoms of the problem.
Perhaps I have mis-diagnosed your problem. What DNS server is bind using
to resolve hostnames. Is it the router, the one(s) provided by the ISP
or some other service (Google, OpenDNS, etc.)?
If it is the router try switching to the one provided by your ISP or
8.8.8.8 (Google). Hint: you can usually find your ISPs DNS servers in
the router's status pages.
No, as I said, I don't use the router for DNS resolution, so I guess I
am bypassing it, as you suggest :) They're the ISP's DNS, but I've tried
others, without any improvement.
forwarders {
// ukpost
77.75.108.53;
// entanet
195.74.102.146;
195.74.102.147;
};
I seem to have worked round the problem by adding mail.vanderhoff.org
and smtp.vanderhoff.org to my local hosts file. Not seen any timeouts
since, but I don't feel it's the right thing to do...
