Sashank999:
Hi !
--- Code: ---tc@box:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 192.168.55.1
--- End code ---
which makes me think that it queries my router which queries DNS given by my ISP.
Rich:
Hi Sashank999
Yup, that's what it does. Try changing the contents to this:
--- Code: ---nameserver 8.8.4.4
--- End code ---
or:
--- Code: ---nameserver 4.2.2.4
--- End code ---
Then see if things run any faster.
Sashank999:
It didn't work as the file again changed nameserver to 192.168.55.1 .

if interested, my gateway is diff to yours. for me
--- Code: ---cat /etc/resolv.conf
search localhost
nameserver 192.168.1.1
--- End code ---
If you log into your router....hopefully you have a page for network settings (DLINK)
LAN IP address matches my above number
and I have DNS relay enabled......and I believe that takes me to ISP DNS

Hi Sashank999
Change the contents of the file. Don't forget to use the save command in the editor.
Do not reboot.
Do not restart your wireless adapter.
The changes should be detected immediately. Try both of those DNS servers and see if either on improves your Internet connection.
