[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1933783, member: 110816"] The two Google's public DNS' are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. The value of 888.888.888 you provided isn't even a valid IP address. Secondly, as Jake said, when you are viewing available WiFi networks, you'll see everything in your area. I see my neighbors networks, for example. But only networks you've connected to should show up as known networks. Also, your DNS can't be 127.0.0.1 since that's localhost (a local loopback) that just bounces things back to you for testing. No packet that hits that IP would leave your machine. Ideally, you want the Gateway to be the IP of your router (something like 192.168.1.1) and the DNS follows that. But I use the Google DNS', you can also use any of the other public DNS'. If you don't switch, then you end up using your ISP's DNS and they might inject ads or slow things down. [/QUOTE]
