DNS stopped working after a month, can Ping, can recieve e-mail, other OS on same machine works....
Hi! I have Windows 7 since a month. It was working nicely until 2 days ago. I can ping other computers, can see others on the local network. Can get an automatic IP. MSN-testprogram complains about not getting DNS. I think that is the problem. Have tried tips and tricks from the net but nothing works. Have searched for solutions like open DNS (and tried), have reinstalled networkcard, and services but nothing works. My other OS on the same machine works perfectly. BUT IT JUST A VERY SIMPLE ONE WITH JUST A BROWSWER, not like W7. I have Win7 Professional, 32 bit, build 09.10.2009. ASUS PQ5 motherboard.... PLEASE HELP!!!! Later today I did set exactly the same DNS and IP as my other OS, on the same machine, uses. I have tried a mix between static DNS 10.0.0.1 / 127.0.0.1 and automatic IP. DO NOT WORK. I have disabeled IP6 protocol. I have set other settings under advanced concerning DNS but no change. Sometimes W7 network diagnosis reports that it cant do anything and sometimes when I mess around with IP and DNS adress it says that server can't get DNS adress or similar. PUHHH. What ____ is this. After a month?? Are there some new buffers that gets overflow after a month? I keep the maching up and running 24H/7D. Flushdns do not help. I have removed the ticmark in the LMHOSTS-file, but no help there....

What computer or device is at 10.0.0.1? Kerry Brown MS-MVP - Windows Desktop Experience I recommend you try manually setting the DNS to your ISPs DNS server rather than using whatever gateway device that is, i've had problems with DNS relay on home routers in the past and setting it directly has fixed it.
