I'd google OpenDNS but it's down!

Just add these to your TCP/IP properties under DNS:

208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Odd. I always use OpenDNS and my connection is crawling along

Never mind, time for bed - hopefully its fixed by morning!

Have you patched your Internet to version 10.21? It was released last week and my speeds have vastly improved!

I'm with o2 aswell, cheers that sorted it out.

I'm a BE user - can get on here and other sites - no Ebay though amongst others

Those DNS numbers sorted it. Cheers !

Sky for the win

Although, they have their fair share of DNS issues... But not recently

Tunney · 4 Nov 2008 at 23:19

Same problems here. Must be a DNS problem because IRC/MSN/Xbox Live are all A-OK.

How do i enter them addresses on the O2 Wireless box II? Or will i have to rumage around and get the netgear router out?

Do it in Windows, it's easier.

Same here with O2 stuck the openDNS address's in my netgear router and all seems ok again for now.

I haven't used Vista in months, but I think if you go to the Network Sharing Center, then on the left is "Manage network connections". In there will show your local area connections, then just go into the properties of your main LAC and double click TCP/IPv4.

Greenlizard0 · 4 Nov 2008 at 23:47

I've found them, but I'm not sure if it's making much difference. :confused:

peter212693 · 4 Nov 2008 at 23:47

Network and Sharing Centre >> Manage network connections >> Right click your connection >> Properties >> TCP/IP v4

peter212693 · 4 Nov 2008 at 23:48

What router do you have greenlizard?
