Answer» Hello there.
I am following a guide to create a static lan IP address.
http://www.portforward.com/networking/static-vista.htm
But i have become a BIT stuck on these DNS servers (name servers)
I am using a BT Home hub 2.0, and have been searching in the manager for these, with no luck.
I found a website which lists DNS server names, but i was trying to make sure if this is correct. Quote BT INTERNET. DNS SERVERS 194.73.73.172 194.73.73.173
194.72.9.44 QuoteIPCONFIG/ALL SHOWS Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : home Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8187B WIRELESS 802.11b/g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network Ada Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-21-63-A9-BE-6F DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::74e9:b0a2:4a20:d899%11(Preferred) IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.65(Preferred) Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : 22 September 2009 12:45:48 Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : 23 September 2009 12:45:52 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DHCPv6 IAID . . . . . . . . . . . : 201335139 DHCPv6 Client DUID. . . . . . . . : 00-01-00-01-11-93-2E-2E-00-1E-33-7F-BE-51 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Enabled Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : home

Enter
194.73.73.172 194.73.73.173
192.168.1.254 is the router. It's not really the DNS server it means your computer asks the router and the router asks the DNS server instead of your computer asking the DNS server.Quote from: TechGeek on September 23, 2009, 08:52:05 PMEnter

Thanks for replying.
I have just found this in the hub manager, Burried in a sub menu and wondered if these are the right ones
So at the bottom tcp/ip settings primary DNS secondary DNS
Are these the DNS servers
*Internet connection configuration*
*Connection information* *Connection time 2 days, 20:35:47*
*Data transmitted/received (MB) 86.76 / 124.20*
*Broadband user name [emailprotected]*
*Password *********
*TCP/IP settings* *Broadband network IP address 86.169.141.252*
*Default gateway 213.123.108.122*
*Primary DNS 62.6.40.162*
*Secondary DNS 194.74.65.69*
