Hi Think I've been here before but this started happening a couple of weeks ago. Many web pages are sloooooooooooooow ever so slow. Looking with ethereal a dns request is sent out to tiscali's primary dns server. No reply for 5 secs so the secondary is tried and the address comes back within 25mSec. I have my router set to use the tiscali numbers - 212.74.112.66 and 67. 67 is the secondary. I've switch the addresses round in the router to use 67 first but the system still uses 66 first. Me thinks something in my system is doing this and not using the router as it should. The router is a draytek vigor 28000. (adsl 2+ ready.) Any comments? How can I fix it. Pages can take ages to come up as lots use source from many many servers. Bit like the ipv6 problem from a while ago. The problem may have come about because of a suse upgrade. I've had a simular problem with a router that would automatically detect the dns server. It looked like some web tracker was spoofing it which is why I put the addresses in the router. -- Regards John Suse 10.0 KDE 3.4.2 B ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
