I'm still on Streamyx blush.gif Recently been getting notification that pops up by itself when I'm online - don't really understand it - telling me to change my DNS settings in my modem. See attached screenshot

But I also noticed that the webpage address is not tm.com.my but gstatic.com. When I check whois gstatic, i found that it is a google inc. owned domain

Anyone else get this notification? Must change or not? I'm using riger db-108WL modem but I can't find the page / control to change the DNS to "auto-assigned". Can I set the dns to OpenDNS' 208.67.222.222 / 208.67.220.220 or to Google DNS?

i meant you can set the dns on your pc itself... not necessarily need to configure your router

He need to set it up on router level or else some device might face connectivity issues

Perform the DNS change on a router level so all connected devices may benefit.. Either OpenDNS or Google's servers are fine...
