Hey gang,

My computer is not allowing me connect to the majorioty of the internet and is claiming DNS problems and key port issues. Funny enough, I can fully access TERB...

Any ideas on how to solve this? I have already tried the following command prompt:

ipconfig /flushdns
net stop dnscache
net start dnscache

Any ideas would be helpful! Thanks!
 
If you try to ping a website that you can't connect to, does the address resolve to an IP? If it does then you don't have a DNS problem, regardless of whether or not you get replies.

Restarting the PC is the easiest way to reset all the networking components.

Also if you have a cable modem, you may want to re-boot that to.
Sometimes the cable modem farks up and a simple re-boot clears things up.
