[QUOTE="Adric, post: 1419211, member: 245480"] I always thought you changed your DNS settings in the router settings menu and not on the computer itself. I am no networking expert though. To get to the router settings on a Linksys router (it's different for each brand so look up how to do it for your router brand) you open Safari on a computer connected to the network and in the URL box type "192.168.1.1". It will bring up a window asking for your username and password. Username is left blank and the password is "Admin". This will take you to the router settings where you can adjust the DNS (I think) and DHCP settings on the network. [/QUOTE]
