I configured an eircom netopia router instead of my Zyxel modem last night. All works and just for saftey I even tried to put in both BT DNS .240 & .241
Now I can surf but every new page takes about 10 sec to the browser gose from looking up www.google.com to downloading the page. I have tried pinging address and it works after a pause but the timing is still 17ms. Now I have tried some online DNS tests for timing and they come up with a figure of 133ms round trip. This does still not sound too excessive. I have tried using one of eircoms DNS but with the same results. THe old router works as good as always so I really think its something I set up wrong.
I have set the necessary settings
PPOE LLC
etc
etc
All these test are done through a wireless link. But that should not make any difference. Skype works as good as always so I think its still a DNS problem
Any body come across this before?
