Hi All,

Ive been having problems since I got my Vodacom 3G. I use it in La Lucia at work and then at home in Hillcrest in the evening. Ill be using the connection and then all of a sudden all pages become unavailable. I try ping the DnS and nothing. Then later it will return. Sometimes within mins sometimes it takes much longer.
I use GMail for my mail which then I cant contact. I also trade using STD Banks website and as they have this stupid "security feature" I then cant trade for 15 mins which on the open market can be an eternity!

Any ideas / suggestions for setting up the PC so that this doesnt happen?
Ive reduced my MTU size in the TCP settings and that seems to have helped general browsing

Which DNS server do you use? (ala ipconfig /all)
