    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.
