| Zywall 2, DNS not reporting correctly
Hi: I have a Zywall 2, and the DNS is not reporting properly when I do ipconfig /all. I have tried it with the proper DNS Server IP entered in the Zywall and with the ipconfig /all cmd it provides the DNS IP from our previous ISP. I have the computer set to obtain. The I changed the Zywall to obtain from ISP and it still reports the previous IP and I have tried it with 3 different computers.
How can I get it to start using the correct DNS IP??
Thanks, fox7 |

| reply to fox7 Brano: Thanks for the FAST reply!! I tried what you suggested, but then it would not resolve anything, not even in a ping. But it changed what it was reporting in ipconfig /all to the routers (Zywall) address. So I went and entered the correct DNS IPs in the Zywall and the ipconfig /all is still reporting the Zywall's IP as the DNS, but now things are resolving really fast like normal. That is why I needed to get it changed, it was resolving painfully slow.
Thanks Brano, and if this does not give final resolution to the issue I will post again.
Thanks, fox7 |

| reply to fox7 Brano: Yea, I know to release. It seems I am doing this all the time 
Why I am back on this thread now, is that now it is reporting the proper IPs for the DNS servers when I do an Ipconfig /all. It had been working since we worked on it, but now it is finally reporting the proper IPs. It may have been reporting properly yesterday, I didn't have time to check.
Thanks again for helping me!!
