> Try using a different DNS server in your network settings. if i knew how to do that, i would the only options i see are "Local Area Connection" and "Make New Connection" my ISP is my cable company and the internet comes in on a LAN Modem i'm not sure connecting to them through a different connection is going to solve my problem are there dip switches on the modem that i have to change or something? if i call their help line, will they change their DNS servers just for me? Rudy ============================================ Roughly what you want, on windows, is right click the local connection for properties. Then select IP on the General tab, the properties on the same tab. At this point you can see the setting for DNS. However, odds are this is configured by dhcp so you can't change it. Which means this is nice to know but not helpful. You'll have to wait until the network problem is resolved since you can't affect the network. Network issues like this are usually dns problems or hardware issues with devices being down and algorithms for network paths working through alternative paths. Or things are just overloaded. And no the isp won't change the dns and dip switches are a thing of the past. drew ____ * The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM * ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To change subscription settings or add a password: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk ________________ http://www.wdvl.com _______________________ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
