Anyone with Eircom DNS problems?

Lord Nikon · 2008-08-18 23:15:09

I think I have DNS problems with Eircom. Problems even accessing the router through IE "Server not Found", but "very good" connection on signal strength. Some websites working, some not at all? Anyone have same problems? Carbury exchange.

Run -> CMD -> nslookup

Enter a few of the domains you couldnt open. If you get ip addresses then the problem is not with the dns servers.
