Title: Idnet DNS servers down?
Post by: gingerjedi on May 22, 2009, 23:20:54
I haven't had a connection all evening but switching to the openDNS server IP's fixed it for me, anyone else?

I guess if you're all down no-one will see this... hello anyone???

No problems for me either although rather strangely a friend on a different ISP has been having the same issue for a couple of days.

On my router status page it was showing as connected but there was nothing in the IP address fields, when I changed the DNS settings to use OpenDNS it worked straight away.

Tested 'get automatically from ISP' again and it stopped working so deffinatly a problem there, but why just me??

Re-booting the router might help, Ginger, if it doesn't you'll need to talk to support as it's clearly a local issue, and we can't do much in those situations.

You might want to use OpenDNS anyway. I've always found it better than ISPs'.
