Re: Unable to clear DNS cache whilst repairing wireless connection
Go into Control Panel >>> Administrative Tools >>> Services >>> and make
sure your "DNS Client" is set to automatic and started. Tell me if this helps. -- Greg Lindsay [MSFT] Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Re: Unable to clear DNS cache whilst repairing wireless connection
Hi
You can find general info about DNS here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_system What is your specific settings of DNS is depends on how you are connected to the Internet (type of connection, Router, Software firewall etc.). Could be that trying this process will take care of the local problem, http://www.ezlan.net/clean#refreshnet Jack (MVP-Networking).
