Problems with Perlico broadband

The Lovely Muffin

Is anyone else having problems with Perlico broadband this evening? I'm in the Mullingar area.

Since about 6.40pm my internet has be going on and off constantly. Every few minutes when trying to view a website (any website) all I get is 'the page cannot be found'.

Thanks.

Sounds like a DNS issue, vodafone's DNS is known to be flakey

would you know how to change your DNS settings in your router

The Lovely Muffin

Thank you.

No, I have no idea how to change the DNS settings.:o

Without you posting line stats there's no way we can know its your line or not, as already suggested it could be DNS.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

I am not sure what you mean by stats, but I got this from Internet Explorer after it did a 'diagnose connection problems' run/scan.

I have removed the I.P address from it, I am not sure how important it is, but if it is important, I can PM it.
