Ok, I am connected to adsl24 server through my router.
Router info: IP address: 87.127.97.214
Primary DNS : 195.74.113.58
Secondary DNS: 195.74.113.62

I can connect to ADSL24 site, but now can't get the cPanel page up!
Also I can't connect to a few other sites, like google, Pipex and adslguide.co.uk

Help please

Did you input those DNS details manually or is the router pulling these details automatically?

I inputted them myself, but without them or if the router grabbed them automatically I still can't connect to the said sites.

Thanks

Does this look ok?
Thanks

I don't believe it now!
I changed my setting back to my old ISP so that I could get to the cPanel etc etc., then changed back to adsl24 settings. I can now get to cPanel, but can't get to the websites I could before!!! All I get is Problem loading page, Firefox can't find the server at www.google.com etc

It sounds like it could be a DNS issue ... I had terrible problems with this a few weeks ago (before I came to ADSL24) and I'm now using these DNS settings ...

208.67.220.220
208.67.222.222

Touch wood, I've not had any recurrent problems :)

Like surfer_chick, I prefer to use OpenDNS's DNS servers - have a read about them at http://www.opendns.com/.

Another opendns fan here. Enta DNS servers have given problems occasionally, so no harm to have something up your sleeve.

Ok its sorted now! I rang Brian earlier and it was down to my previous ISP's DNS settings in the TCP/IP proerties, doh!
Yipee!

Yes indeed and this is a handy tip to all new customers.

Make sure you dont have old settings in your TCP/IP properties.

These from enternet control panel. ? which do you recommend Brian?
do you think these ones are ok, I set this in my router, and my windows tcp/ip is set to get them automatically, so i presume it will get them from my router, or is it best to manualy set these as well. I know about the open ones, but for the time being while I am waiting for my 10 day training period to hopefully sort out my 2meg and ramp me up to 8 meg, I thought best sit tight?

cheers for any tips :-)

I am getting nice smooth connection, "superior to Tiscali" "even if it is 1.8 meg. Just hope bt will uncap my line soon up to 8 meg, I have good line and only 542 meters from exchange, so they have no reason to leave me here ... We shall see......:eek:

The DNS servers you use will not make any difference to the outcome of the 10 day training period.
