im to where i have to run them every day.

I don't understand the "why" would HSI users have to do this every day? malware/dns-spyware? routers? comcast? windows?IE? what's the bottom line on this? thx ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15834693 Wed, 05 Apr 2006 15:19:47 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15831399 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15831399 Wed, 05 Apr 2006 03:10:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15830530 said by anontech128907 :

To answer your question...

ipconfig/flushdns and ipconfig/registerdns fixes alot of weird problems, especially when you are able to view any website under the sun, except one. (Like your homepage, etc.)

Comcast is going through a DNS migration as some of you may know from their mass emailings. This may/may not be the culprit.

Personally, I run the commands twice a month on my XPSP2 machine, just to keep things fresh.

START | RUN

1) netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
2) ipconfig/flushdns
3) ipconfig/registerdns
4) netsh winsock reset catalog
You can put all those commands into a filename.BAT file or under XP just do a Repair on the network ICON under view network connections.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15830530 Tue, 04 Apr 2006 23:24:45 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15830458 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15830458 Tue, 04 Apr 2006 23:15:35 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15830182 said by I'm a CSR w/ Comcast, and troubleshooting speed-related issues is definately the trickest and most time-consuming.

I'm a CSR w/ Comcast, and troubleshooting speed-related issues is definately the trickest and most time-consuming.

There are so many things (other than DNS problems) that can cause speed issues. Too many to mention them all.

You definately seem well-informed of the issue, and have learned some things along the way. Hopefully your problem can be discussed with an experienced CSR over the phone. You just need someone who's willing to explore all variables with you.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15812741 Sun, 02 Apr 2006 15:02:02 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15812067 Good to hear!! I'm wondering if the original-poster has resolved his/her issue?

I'm still working on it, but my connection is still problematical, but I've got a much better understanding of dns and what the problems are, and how to trace down the dns problems. from what I've learned, I'm beginning to feel that a lot of the comcast connection problems are a combination of comcast HSI user's computer dns problems (malware, configuration etc) as well as some lousy comcast dns servers, and that comcast CSR's should be " better educated" in the area of DNS problems causing "connection speed problems" and that just having a fast downstream-upstream speed connection doesn't do "squat" for a lot of users connection surfing speed problems. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15812067 Sun, 02 Apr 2006 13:00:16 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15811436
I did state that the DNS migration may/may not have something to do with it... not that it IS the problem. Just speculation.

The winsock reset is done from the command prompt in SP2 as mentioned before. In SP1, in order to reset the winsock, you must edit the registry (START | RUN, regedit) and delete the following keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2

as well as

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock

Reboot the computer and the winsock registry entries will be re-instated. The reset commands that I posted are probably a little bit of overkill, but it doesn't hurt...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15811436 Sun, 02 Apr 2006 10:47:42 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15809768 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15809768 Sat, 01 Apr 2006 22:50:06 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DNS-when-I-cant-connect-to-my-homepage-thru-my-router-15809364 --
