What the heck is open DNS??? can someone explain???
Still not working :( in Canada.
Think of DNS as a phone book of Internet addresses. When you type in freerepublic.com, there is a directory information call made to your DNS server that essentially says what is freerepublic.com’s “phone” (IP) number. Your computer then calls that number. and the page pops up in your browser. In this case when many people here call their “directory assistance” the idiot at the other end of the line says, I don’t know, so no page pops up. You can set your computer to call different directory assistance or you can just tell your computer that freerepublic.com has the number 209.157.64.200 like I did.
