phxmarkWhat Country Are We Living In? join:2000-12-27 Glendale, AZ | Set up your own DNS I set my own DNS server on my network to handle DNS requests. Don't have any issues with redirects. -- High speed is dangerous. Too many MP3s, not enough time. | |

| Re: Set up your own DNS Agreed. Or use clean DNS servers. If your ISP doesn't have 'em then 4.2.2.x (1-6) work great.
SPeaking of DNS redirection, I think DNS redirection should be a value-added service, with the customer getting the money when it's on. Turn on "domain helper" and get $3 per month back on your bill...everyone wins! | |

Or your ISP turns it on for everyone and just pockets the full $5 per month They win and to them that's the only entity that matters. | |
