Virgin DNS Problem
      #375027 - Fri Dec 07 2007 04:40 PM

I have recently changed my ISP from tiscali to virgin. I have a Netgear DG834G router (which seems to be working fine)and Windows vista Home premium but when I browse the internet on some web sites, I keep getting ' Internet explorer cannot display page error' I click to diagnose connection problems and Windows Vista tells me that it's a dns error. sometimes I refresh the page and it finds it but not always. I discovered OpenDns so I changed my router settings to use their DNS Servers,(which worked wonderfully for browsing the internet no problems at all) but then I found that I could no longer get to my router settings page..it kept redirecting me to the netgear home page, I had to reset my router and re-enter all my settings. Virgin's dns servers are driving me nuts. Is there any way I can keep OpenDNS but still be able to acess my router settings??? Or am I having dns problems because I haven't set something up right????

Try to get someone at Custmer Services to get their DND Servers flushed. Good luck though, you've probably got more chance of winning the lottery than finding a script reading monkey that understands what you're talking about.
