DNS problems with router

A couple suggestions I have for you:

Update the firmware on the router. Maybe it's getting into a badstate, and a firmware update might fix it. Or if you're comfortable with it, install a custom firmware like dd-wrt. Just make sure its supported on your router first.

Change your DNS to: 8.8.8.8, 4.2.2.1. Might help.

If none of these work, maybe statically set your DNS on your PS3/PC to the IPs you listed, taking the router out of the lookup procedure.

Last option, is look for a new router.

 

Cant change DNS settings


Trying to add a new DNS IP address. Go to the adapter, go to the IPV4 properties and advanced and add the new DNS IP address. Every thing is fine until I close the adaptor window and it pops up an error "an unexpected condition occurred, not all of your requested changes in settings could be made"

Even if I make no changes at all and just open and close it I get this. Need to set the new DNS as first on the list.

 

why would you want to change your windows dns settings?

ok, I guess im just not fully understanding the actual process but its not important as long as im sticking with the default 250 queries im doing it right.

the end results I am seeing are so wildly different each time, that im not sure which of these results can be trusted.

different times of the day you get different lists and I understand this is because of usage habits when people get off of work vs being at work but beyond that, I can run two test 10 minutes apart and get a 20% or more change in the order and speeds of dns servers listed and where they are on the list.

because of this im not sure how to formulate a choice to pick as better or worse then my default dns.

do I just do a handful of tests each hour or couple of hours and average it all out?

and if im only looking at say a 10% or less difference, is it worth changing dns just for that small change? or is that not as small a change as I am thinking it is?
