Field Note #1 @naquaada 2009-01-23

Have you entered the primary and secondary DNS in your router? I have, primary first, secondary second , as it should be In Windows' network settings I ented it the same way, no problems.

As I started with Tiger 10.4.5 in 2006 I entered the DNS adresses like I was used to, primary DNS adress first. Downloading files was full speed, but browsing was awfully slow. Then I tried for testing the secondary DNS adress first, now browsing and downloading is fast. What is your ISP?
