Re:Very interesting…Here is what I am expierencing:

This only happens to my Hard wired Win XP Home machine.

Everytime I boot up and double click the IE icon I ge the same problem DNS problem etc.. No internet.

I found that is run Norton WinDoctor it always finds 22 Active X problems.

I then Repair them

I then empty my protected recycling bin

I then double click my IE icon and bang eveything works fine for the rest of the time I use my PC.

ANY THOUGHTS??

FYI…My only wireless laptop has win 98 and never has a problem contecting to the internet…

Re:I contacted Netgear regarding the issue, told them every single thing I'd tried so they wouldn't email me back something redundant like "Make sure all your cables are plugged in" and "try resetting the cable modem"… I got a response suggesting something similar to what has already been mentioned. Below is the Cut & Paste. Hope it works for you.

"The problem with the DNS resolution is a common issue with the routers ( not specifically MR314 ). This issue can be permanently resolved by hardcoring DNS ip address in the router. Hardcoring the DNS server ip address in the router is of no harm and will increase the performance as the router then router does not have to search for the DNS server to resolve the domain names to ip address. You can either specify the DNS server ip address of your ISP or the global DNS server ip address of 4.2.2.1 / 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.3."

Re:Well, I have a workaround that seems to be fixing the problem. I turned off the DHCP server in the router, and asigned the PCs on the network static IPs, then got my primary and secondary DNS servers from Verizon and inserted them manually. This seems to have fixed the problem for me. Let me know if it helps you at all.

Re:I am using win2k, and rebooting my computer does not solve the problem, only rebooting the router.

Re:I have a similar problem with my WinXP Pro machine. I also have a WinXP Home laptop that this has not happened on yet, and a Win2000 Server machine that has been up and running for a month straight with no problems. I used to have a D-Link router, but am now using the Webramp 700s. Switching to the Webramp has not fixed the problem with my WinXP Pro machine.

The only way I have figured out to fix the problem is to reboot the computer. Does anyone know of a fix for this???

Re:Yarg. For future reference, how do I edit a pre-existing post? I jumped the gun on hitting "enter" in the last one, I thought it would just log me in=/ Anyway, What I meant to say is, if you get a new router and the problem magically disappears, please let me know. Much appreciated.

Re:I have this EXACT same problem with the EXACT same router. Tried flashing it to the newest firmware and it didnt help. I too have tried every possiblity to resolve the issue to no avail.

My net is through verizon DSL, but the problem is the same. Trust me, I know how irritating this can get. I am about to just buy a new router :|

Let me know if you figure anything out. -Andy
