Re: managing multiple ISPs
Jan,
The first IP address worked fine for me. I did not try the second
one though. You can give it a try yourself. Go to the command prompt,
and enter this:
nslookup [ENTER]
server 193.189.224.2 [ENTER]
www.yahoo.com [ENTER]
The abovementioned DNS server (193.189.224.2) will then resolve
the domain name specified at the prompt (www.yahoo.com) for you with some
comments. I tried this from my regular Internet connection from work,
meaning that my default DNS is something else, of course.
