Hey snodog - do you have a broadband phone not form the cable co like vonage???

He's got Verizon. Just redid his contract a couple if weeks ago. He'll be on shortly.

I'm here and feel honered we have verizon cell but get no service at home! not sure about the land line.

can you ping 75.125.109.68 from a 'cmd' box?

start - run - type in: cmd and hit enter

then in the box type
ping 75.125.109.68

landline is what I am asking because there is a guy on achat who cannot get to HCS when his vonage phone line (land lline broadband) is hooked up...he has to disconnect it to get on HCS

that came up as not a recognizeable command, must have done something wrong ...I did that before and it came back with 32 packets sent & 32 packets recieved, whatever that means?!

like this

start - programs - accesories - command prompt

got it to work, came up with request timed out twice then reply from 75.125.109.68 bytes=32 time=3063nsttl=47
same again except time=76ns ttl=47 ping statistics packets sent=4,recieved=2,lost=2<50%loss> approximate round trip times in milliseconds min.76 max.=3063 average=1569ms
still a helluva lot faster than I type!!!!!!!!

thats horrible..

open ie or a new tab and type in: http://75.125.109.68

or just click the link. um duh lol

so I gotta unhook the phone or do something with the computer? the only hookup on the puter is roadrunner wireless.

out of curiosity go back into a command box and

ping www.hardcoresledder.com

also ping www.yahoo.com
yahoo reponds quickly?

no,, all other sites work fine correct?

Im SO confused. :smilielol:

ok it went to yahoo small bussiness came up sorry we do not support the extension 109.68 now what the hell does that mean?

YUP

clicking this link didnt work: http://75.125.109.68
??

no - only if it is vonage - if your landline is through time warner then its not gonna help

yes 4 packets sent 4 recieved 0 lost want the times & all?

in comand box type in: tracert www.hardcoresledder.com

C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner> this is what I got so far.

if your sure your not bogged down with a virus (like a dns hijacker) or spyware.. then move onto changing your dns settings to a public one to see if that resolves the issue,,,

like opendns:
1) create an account with them https://www.opendns.com/start?s2
2) download this http://www.opendns.com/support/ddns_files/...Updater-1.1.exe

info here http://www.opendns.com/support/dynamic_ip_tech/

this will change you to opendns's dns servers... anytime messing with stuff like this always a chance something may get f'd up

before you do this goto a command box and type in
ipconfig /all

jot down that info or print the screen and save it.. opendns servers are all resolving hcs fine

try this link: http://75.125.109.66/

oh yeah opendns will block the ole porn sites......... and you did reset ie to to defaults already and it still didnt work, right?

all this pc help and no time to do any chops lol...... can you geton using a proxy?

yeah but thats annoying and sometimes slow as mollasses

but
click here for a list: http://www.fastproxynetwork.com/top_hits.php


anyways snodog.. if ya get brave and change to OpenDNS -dns servers... it may resolve your issue...


fyi: I was told a few hcs members are having the same issue with getting to hcs through using the same ISP as you... probably a dns issue on their server. um duh

ok now that I wrote all that chit down how do I know that? I have norton and spybot that should take care of it right?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH gets rid of the porn? no thats out of the question I'd lose 1/2 my data lol

well okay then.. if ya change to a public dns server and hcs works.. the problem is your isp's dns server.... only way to find out is to try.. (slow ping responses are a sign of dns problems)

list of public dns servers here: (pick a two close ones) http://www.tech-faq.com/public-dns-servers.shtml

to manually change your dns server:

Select Control Panel from the Start menu.
Click Network Connections from the Control Panel choices.
Choose your connection from the Network Connections window.
Click Properties button.
Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.
Click the radio button Use the following DNS server addresses and type in OpenDNS addresses in the Preferred DNS server and Alternate DNS server fields.

if you loose connection after changing them just go back in and delete them

that doesnt delete the stuff thats on the puter it just blocks porn sites right?

thanks for the help peeps still not workin yet probably won't get back here till after the weekend again THANK YOU ALL

if you use opendns's servers.. yeah they just block porn in dns.. doesnt delete


so you changed dns servers, where able to connect to internet,, and still couldnt get to hcs? is that correct??

which ip addresses did you use for the dns servers?

hey tek can you burn a copy of your photochop program? i cannot find mine

yup

tanks bud

ONE MORE DAY BITCHES!!!!
