This Dns clinet error problem haunts me. Is there a real fix?

Post the result of ipconfig /all for the XP laptop when connected via ethernet to the router for a comparison.

Hi, Boggins,please see the picture at post no.39

Boggin:
@ Samson - Do you have a comparable router to check what you have where JR has domain.name in his router ?

See attached screenshot. Netgear DG834G non ISP supplied ADSL modem/ router.

"domain.name" is the default entry in J's router? I understand that to be true. It may be ISP/ Region specific and it all seems to work fine on J's XP laptop. I think with that default setting and J's ISP settings and DNS it works and is best left alone rather than just entering random names.

I know J is keen to try and fix the problem, fair play to him, but I'm sure the problem is in J's Win7 machine network, and not his router. A reinstall may be a pain, but may be the only way.

Boggin:
We haven't seen an ipconfig /all from the XP machine yet.

It would be nice to see a comparison.
