dessbee Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Soon after I have started Bitcomet my browsing in IE becomes impossible. Downloads in Bitcomet are still working so the Internet connection is still working. My first fix was to reboot my ADSL modem. This is a slow fix since it will take ten minutes to renew my ip-address and all seeds in Bitcomet have to be retraced. I have spent weeks trying to figure out the problem. What I found was that I had a problem with my DNS. You can prove this by typing in the ip address for google into the address bar: http://216.239.39.99 instead of the DNS like "www.google.com" To fix it I simply flush my DNS with the "ipconfig /flushdns" command in the Command Prompt. Unfortunately my DNS cache gets corrupted almost every twenty minutes so its quite irritating. After a few hours it will not help to flush dns so eventually I have to reboot my modem. But still downloads and ip-addresses are working but website addresses are not. Is there anything that can be done to avoid Bitomet corrupting my DNS cache?
