    Run ipconfig /all command,
    That will display the entries of your local network settings.

    I'm still tempted to say host file (for now) :D

    Thanks, should I just post the whole output or are you looking for something specific, if I was the host file surely only the one computer would be affected rather than every computer attached to the router?

    You've just showed that it's the DNS servers, since an nslookup using your router (therefore your ISP's DNS) didn't work, and an nslookup using google's dns did.

    Changing your dns server is the only thing you can do, realistically.

    Sorry I missed this bit in your first post, just to be sure can you post the whole log anyway, easier putting it on #CODE tags to save the scrolling

    What about your router settings, is everything checked in there?

    Sorry if going over old ground here, bedroom is 30c and brain is cooking :eek:

    Thanks, well its not so realistic, unless i'm missing something obvious you can't just change the DNS server within the livebox configuration pages.

    Maybe its best just to leave it considering its just the one site so far, but I hate things not being right.


    Anyway here's the output, not really an expert ( as you can tell) but i think the router setting are OK

    Anyway here's the output, not really an expert ( as you can tell) but i think the router setting are OK

    It's NP, I just wanted to check. The Ipconfig /all confirms your local DNS settings on computer are fine, this would initially have told me your host file was !!!!!!ed up but I missed out the post saying it wasn't PC specific.

    Never heard of a livebox, I keep thinking xbox :D

    What settings do you get when you logon to your router, I know on the BT ones you used to be able to change the primary and secondary DNS servers that you used incase of problems.

    If you can't change the dns servers in your router, change them on the PC.

    Oh you can do that :)

    Yeah that works, but stops me accessing the Livebox configuration pages ? I guess I'll just have to leave it unless I come across more sites that don't work.

    Might email Orange to inform them of the problem, but I imagine it will be a waste of my time.

    nope, it shouldn't stop you accessing the config page. You'll always be able to access it on 192.168.1.1
