PCs & Mobiles Forum
I`ll post this here just in case you guys have got any ideas:
Basically my main PC is having problems with t`internet. Everything is fine when it is first booted, but then all of a sudden it will just stop resolving internet pages and I get a "page cannot be contacted" error in Firefox (or timesout in IE).
It connects through a ADSL Router, but if I use the laptop/PSP they connect fine, and if I reboot the PC it works again. A bit annoying when a decide to take a break from gaming and surf a bit.
I know there`s a dns service of some kind on the PC, and I`m guessing it`s stopping causing this problem, but if anyone can add some insight as to why this might happen (and I`ll check when it happens next if this service has stopped).
Thanks

Restarting the DNS Client service seems to sort it, not sure why it`s happening though.

Hi
Are you using norton anti virus and firewall?I had a problem with getting locked out and having to restart then i changed the setup to avg and the windows firewall and it not happened again in the last 2 weeks .It was happening several times an hour at one point.
bye

Specified the Primary DNS as the router, and secondary as the isp dns, seems to have done the trick.
