Thanks CK for the opendns config guide.

I am using LinkSys WAG200G router/modem. I followed the guide and key in opendns ip into Static DNS 1 & 2 followed by save.
Switch to the Status tab and do a disconnect and connect. However its still showing the old streamyx DNS server:

Default Gateway:219.93.218.177
DNS1:202.188.0.133
DNS2:202.188.1.5

I tried powering off the router and shut down my PC. Turn router power on again and reboot PC(WinXP).
Still status show the same above.
What did I do wrong with configuration?
Do I need to config DNS on my PC?
Any help esp. from WAG200G user who happen to use OpenDNS server would be much appreciate.
Thanks

Andrew,
Thanks for your advise. I config it on my computer and it confirmed on opendns site.
What if I use other DNS server like Jaring or P1.
How to check and confirm the key in DNS server are being connected?
In case of opendns, we can use their site to check. For others, how and what software are available to check DNS server being used?
In case of streamyx, 202.188.0.133 is always primary and 202.188.1.5 is secondary.
Can this be change to make 202.188.1.5 primary as this has less packet lost?
Thanks

Just config it on your computer, if you can load pages after that, means the DNS is working.

http://www.infoarch.net/s_broadband.htm ... a page of all DNS to use in this region

HOWEVER, Jaring DNS has blocked non Jaring users, do using Jaring DNS you will not get good conenctivity. P1 DNS also, only their 1st DNS responds to non P1 users now. all other p1 DNS do no respond to outsiders.
that is because that website blocks ICMP pings, same goes with www.hotmail.com....

If a website is pingable, but shows some packet loss, then it has problems

If a website is pingable and show 100% PL, but accesible, that means it is blocking pings.

Ig a website is not pingable and canot access..means its DOWN

Andrew,
Thank you for your usefull and detail explaination.
My question on:
In case of streamyx, 202.188.0.133 is always primary and 202.188.1.5 is secondary.
Can this be change to make 202.188.1.5 primary as this has less packet lost?
Any inputs on this?
Thanks again for your help and have a nice day.
