Re: DNS Servers for Insight?
Your DNS servers are pretty much the same for each area, they won't change unless they re-vamp the entire network. I cannot recommend that you statically set your DNS servers in your network settings, but honestly I don't see a problem with it.
HOWEVER...
Setting up your actual IP addresses (With InsightBB.com your ip is either a 12.220.x.x or 12.222.x.x) statically either on your ROUTER or on your computer itself is bad. What happens is, the entire INSIGHTbb.com network is set dynamically. Your IP may or may not change every 5 days, as long as your router or computer(s) are set DHCP (Optain an IP address automatically) then you will not have a problem. When you set yourself statically then your lease is up on that IP, you hold onto it 'cause of your settings. This is why INSIGHTbb.com has you register your MAC's on the SAS sight to eliminate IP theft, as well ensuring that the customers subscribes to the needed number of IP addresses that they need for their home networks. INSIGHTbb.com has a team that does nothing but port scans, watches the CISCO routers, and so on, looking for duplicate IP's, servers being run, etc..etc..
