Re: [ Express] Workarounds for Rogers' web hijacking

The best and easiest way is to use 4.2.2.1/2/3/4 as your DNS servers.

They're fast, never go down, and I'm pretty sure they're corporate.

I have not seen a single one of these web page notifications. I've even switched my DNS servers back and still nothing. I know for a fact that I've gone over the limit this month, so meh, guess I won't have to worry about seeing them anyways.

OK
Can someone please give a quick rundown what this means and how i can implement it.
As of right now, I'm using FF with "Adblock". I don't see the popup but i still have to hit "Refresh" often.
Does this "DNS redirect" avoid the popup altogether?

TIA

To change your DNS in Windows, go to Control Panel, double click Network Connections, right click on Local Area Connection, select Properties, then Internet Protocol TCP/IP , select properties, change the DNS servers.

yep.

If you're using a router then it might be easier to set the DNS in the router so any pc you connect will use it.

Fast is an understatement. I make a DNS change for work, and within minutes those Namservers are already updated.

This allows me to RDP home to test my changes
