OS down?

[SAR Boy Saint]

Anyone else having problems with the OS? I've not been able to access it all day!

Must be you m8....works OK for me.

 

Maybe you've been blacklisted.....or the OS has put you on "ignore".....????

[SAR Boy Saint]

Not working for me either. By any chance do you go through JANET?

 

Sorry mate, I'm happily married!

DNS stands for Domain Name Server. It's what used when you enter the website domain name to look up its current IP address. I sometimes have problems with some site but not others and changing the DNS can sometimes help. Its IP address is usually in your browser settings but if, like me, you're not clear about this then I should leave things alone and wait and see what happens.

You can set your DNS to be 8.8.8.8 (Google) if you dont know another server ;-)

start>run>ipconfig /flushdns

 

wipes out all the stored dns addresses and looks for new ones when you type the www address
