you can ping a site even when dns is down. for eg. ping 161.58.88.250
any dns server can be used with any isp. Only difference is it might just take a little longer to get back the dns query. But that ofcourse doesnt make any diff. to a user like me.

^^ it should be similar to Huawei mt882login to modem , look at : home -> dns -> secondary dns addressand 61.1.96.71 is the alternate dns to 61.1.96.69provided by BSNL .

Yesterday onwards I faced lot of problem connecting to "dataone" with primary DNS server : 61.1.96.69 and secondary DNS server : 61.1.96.71. Does anyone have the same problem?

I have been using the openDNS servers for quite sometime.. I started using it when the BSNL DNS server was down for some time.. plus the openDNS also provides malware warning, error correction.. just check out at: OpenDNS | Providing A Safer And Faster Internet

the servers are:

208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

what ur using are old dns servers of bsnl.(I used those 2 yrs back!)
here,the dataone servers are:

218.248.240.23218.248.240.135

add this manually


else use OpenDNS | Providing A Safer And Faster Internet
