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.

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!

Re: Set up your own DNS

When I type in www.microsoft.com I get redirected to www.apple.com. Is that what this is all about?

That would be a virus or Trojan causing a problem!

Great idea, but the ISP will likely pocket the money AND raise you bill instead. 8-)

I was talking about what *should* happen rather than what will/is happening

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.

Re: Set up your own DNS

Not if customers have another option. I personally find Comcast's clean DNS servers to be quite nice.
