I have a Dell E520 with vista home premium connected to the internet via NB9W modem router.pppoe is established in the router and I have always been able to connect to the internet ok. Now I can ping any site using its ip address but not with a domain name.My router is showing the correct DNS server address And My pcs ipv4 stack is set to automatically get dns and ip addresses from the router.Ipconfig is showing these have been obtained ok but no internet connection via domain names .If I put the actual dns server ips into the ipv4 stack I am back in business.Seems the pc knows the router is the place to look for dns but cant get the dns address.Any ideas please as I dont like leaving it as is when I know there is a problem. |

Hi Rob, Open an elevated command prompt. Run: ipconfig /release ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /renew To open an elevated command prompt, click start and type CMD. Right click the entry that appears in the menu and choose 'run as administrator'. Click continue at the UAC dialog. You must use this mode for these commands to work properly. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Rob" <Rob@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:27FE3A25-7210-44A9-A7DE-12708B897BD0@microsoft.com... >I have a Dell E520 with vista home premium connected to the internet via >NB9W > modem router.pppoe is established in the router and I have always been > able > to connect to the internet ok.
