DNS server not responding!
Hi,
For about a week now i have been unable to connect to the internet. We have a WLAN set-up with 2 laptops, a desktop, a wireless extender, 3 iphones and an ipad. All devices are able to connect to the WLAN (Netgear router) no problem but none of
them can connect to the internet (Belkin Modem). When i troubleshoot the problem i get a 'DNS server not responding' error message. We just had a technician from our Internet service provider come round and he was able to connect to the internet
with his modem. I have since then connected my laptop directly to two separate modems (Netgear and Belkin) on separate occasions and both times i received the same error message. I get the same error again when i repeat the previous
step with my dads laptop.
Could someone please help...
Thanks :)

Hello,
in IP addressing settings of your computer, set 4.2.2.2 or your ISP DNS server as primary DNS server. Once done, try again.
If this does not help, post the output of
ipconfig /all > ipconfig.txt command.
