Do you mean change the DNS settings on my pc or in the router setup? Also I don't have any port forwarding configured. Will post the ipconfig results when I'm back on the pc later today

I'd do it locally on your PC - that way it's only a few mouse clicks to change and revert.

Didn't have any effect

Here's the ipconfig info

In reply to a post by No_One:

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1

That means DNS settings not in PC but in router!

Did you restart the PC inbetween changing the DNS server? Or at the very very least ipconfig /flushdns

Otherwise stale information will be cached

Huh?

Pipexer recommended you change your DNS in the PC. That "DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1" indicates the PC is using the DNS in the router. Which one did you change?

It wasn't just you. I had exactly the same problem; worked fine on another connection but not with Zen, yet unofficial clients (Pidgin) worked fine.

Ahh. I Win7 I went into the connection settings, TCP/IP v4 DNS settings etc
