Yay!
Well "semi-bingo" insofar as individual computers can now bypass the
router's DNS setting (all the Linux boxes I have connected to my router),
but other devices (my wife's iPad, my G3 iMac running 9.2) cannot, and
as such cannot access the websites that that DNS seems unable to reach.
What makes me feel uncomfortable is that those sites seem to be the
ones we contact the most, which makes me wonder if somebody
has been mucking around somewhere.
Supposedly (!!!!) the ISP (BLIZOO, Bulgaria) are going to send a pair
of monkeys, err, strike that, "computer engineers" to play around with
my cable modem and my router: this, frankly, doesn't make me feel good
at all - who paid them, who has told them exactly what to install
(spybots)?
Nothing would give me greater satisfaction than to greet them at the
door and tell them "Thanks, but no thanks", having managed to change
my DNS in the router (EDIMAX TP-LINK) via the browser interface
myself: but I don't think that can be done . . .

Especially, Linux lovers, as my /etc/resolv.conf file has been blanked
overnight so I have to redo the thing!
