Hi there

Can anybody help me with the IS/Openweb DNS server (that work)?

Im currently using 196.14.239.2, but nslookup gives:

Server: dnscache2.is.co.za
Address: 196.14.239.2

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Request to dnscache2.is.co.za timed-out

If I use the saix one it works fine...

Server: igubu.saix.net
Address: 196.25.1.1

Without a DNS server the Openweb ADSL is useless to me, so perhaps they should have a look at it.

If not I will just keep my Telkom one and not renew the Openweb at the end of the month...
 
Generally, I suggest setting your router / modem to Auto assign DNS settings, however, the official IS DNS settings are as ngaged55 said:

Primary: 168.210.2.2
Secondary: 196.14.239.2

Kind regards
