    DNS?


    Currently, when I go into my IPv4 settings, its set-up like this.


    However, when I set the DNS to obtain automatically, I can't connect to anything anymore.

    There are 2 PC's here, one is mine, and they are connected to the same modem through a router.

    Are you using the Window Classic UI?

    Asking because that looks like an XP window, not a Windows 7 window.

    Open a command prompt, type ipconfig -all and post a screen shot of the full list :)

    The 2nd show shows your DNS server has a IPV6 address. No idea why though but that is why it doesn;t work.

    ''ipconfig -flushdns'' did not help.

    Would still like to see all the output from ipconfig /all. Try this:

    Click on Start then Run and paste the following into the Run box, exactly as show, including double quotes:

    cmd /c "ipconfig /all > postme.txt & ping yahoo.com >> postme.txt & notepad postme.txt & del postme.txt"

    and press ENTER.

    A file will open in Notepad. Please copy and paste the contents here. Close the Notepad window and the file will be deleted and the Command Prompt window will also close.
