| Connecting 1.0.0.0
Connecting 1.0.0.0 can be solved in two ways.
First GO to Network settings and remove IPv6 protocol and you can start surfing.
Secondly for MOZILLA Type in address bar as about:config
and find network.dns.disableIPv6 set the value to TRUE by double click..
This has atleast worked for me. HOpe it works for you also |

Cheyenne, WY | Also, you can put in your dns addresses manually in your modem and/or network interface card. For Qwest it's 205.171.3.65 and 205.171.2.65 This eliviates not finding the correct address and giving the 1.0.0.0 result. Later... Mike.... |

| You need to put it in each and every network interface card configuration. Putting it in the modem manually does not help. Even if you enter the DNS servers manually into the modem, the modem still puts its own address first in the list it delivers to the clients via DHCP. |

| Having the modem's own IP address forwarded to the clients via DHCP is not a problem. The modem's IP address is the client's "GATEWAY" IP address anyway, so including it as a DNS address will only put in a slight delay. Not even noticable. The modem then will use the REAL DNS addresses you give it to translate naming.
Of course I use static IP addresses on all machines, routers, and networking so I always place the static DNS in all of them anyway. As long as the static DNS are manually included in the Qwest modems/router, (I assume actiontec because this is a Qwest forum and cisco customers are a lot more knowledgable in this), the modem should go there to resolve name translations. It is possible that the network devices might not figure out the gateway address as a point of DNS resolutions, so it definately makes good sense to include the dns address in all network devices. Good Point msj. Later... Mike.... |

My point is that it is the modem that has the 1.0.0.0 defect, so you want to avoid using it as a name server if you don't want to to see that problem. I wasn't worried about the delay. Of course, sharmil now has shown us another potential workaround. It's interesting that the bug might be related to IPv6 support. If so, perhaps people can go back to using the Actiontec as a name server (which has the advantage of not having to worry about Qwest changing the IP addresses of their name servers) if they disable IPv6 support. |

Could you be more specific about how you go to network settings to disable IPv6 for Windows XP? I changed the Mozilla setting, but that alone didn't help. |

Salt Lake City, UT | Go into network connections and go to the properties for the Local Area Connections you are using. In the list of windows componants, if you see ipv6 listed, remove the check from the box. |
