Cornflakes Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Similar question posted too...my recommendation is to use Firefox. Neopets.com is working just fine for me. ;) http://www.tdnforums.com/index.php?/topic/20504-neo-down/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 While trying out Firefox is a decent recommendation, it's probably not the fix in this situation. Web browsers use your operating system's DNS APIs to resolve the domain names they need to access, so switching browsers won't do anything to help if it's your DNS that's at fault (if this problem continues intermittently, then this is probably the case). Instead, you probably want to change your preferred DNS servers to some more reliable ones. If you're looking for alternative DNS servers, I recommend OpenDNS. :yes: They have a simple setup guide here, although it's not necessary to register for an account to use their services.

Noog Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Well there's your problem, YOU'RE USING VISTA. xD I don't know If DNS errors are something that vista does, but maybe it's worth looking into? XP/7 ftw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XP/7 ftw ...Nope. It has nothing to do with your OS. Btw - I'm using Vista. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
