dog24fret Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) Bummer. Your post came up and I went to the fridge got milk to take my pills sat down then my reply posted lol. Then other times it will just post. All the speed test have me 5.6-6 download and .8-1.4 upload speeds which makes no sense to me that is my package. Nothing is downloading I'm the only one up all devises have been turned off not standby and no difference.

Hotdog Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 you can try switching your DNS (Domain Name Server) in your router to Google's free DNS which is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 I know one time my ISP had DNS issues but when I changed the DNS in my router everything was fine. Once the ISP got the problem solved I switch back to obtain DNS automatically. if there is a DNS issue it will effect all devices.

dog24fret Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Ha now you lost this old man with that old man lol. I know the provider changed the channel they said if I remember right anyway. To test see if there was interference somewhere. Is that what you mean?

Hotdog Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 need to log onto your router and go to WAN settings and where it says "Obtain DNS automatically" Change it to use the following DNS server address. The number you plug in would be google DNS which is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 Quote (NEW) 2004 F-150 Build Log -->http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192208-hotdogs-f-150-build-log/ 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Build Log --> http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/114380-hotdogs-2003-mountaineer-build-log-20-removed/page__gopid__1602379#entry1602379 2008 Equinox Build Log --> http://www.stevemead...g/#entry1475764 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotdog Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 no it should work fine. It will let you know if the problem is with your ISP's DNS server. you can always log back onto your router and switch it back to Obtain DNS automatically. Actually you may not have access to it since the device it adminstered by your ISP.

Actually you may not have access to it since the device it adminstered by your ISP. Not true. my device is administered by my ISP and I can do anything. I mean you have to know your ISP's login (as to which is usually admin/admin) to access the router, but you can change the SSID, password, DNS, everything... Think the chance of not accessing it would be less than 1%. Lol. Quote Sheena = pedobear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
