Hi all,Ok, let me start off with saying that I'm aware Vodafone has acknowledged the DNS issues that have been plaguing my cable connection for the last 12 months. They even admitted it after about 10 emails to them (shock horror!).Anyway, to counter this I'm using OpenDNS (also used Google's public DNS for a bit).Here's the thing though, I have about 80-100 domains registered with WebDrive, and every single one of them will almost all of the time fail to resolve on the first attempt (time out) and then get it on the second attempt DESPITE me using OpenDNS. When I do an nslookup from my computer, it resolves every time.What on earth is going on? Is VF attempting to resolve my domains first anyway through a local cache or something? It's driving me crazy. In fact, even when I have the domains and their IPs listed in my local hosts file, they STILL fail to resolve the first time. Obviously I've checked other ISPs and there are no issues. I'm really confused here. I won't post the URLs yet as I'm not sure if it's against forum rules. Really can't be bothered bringing this up with VF again... the first person didn't even know what a DNS was.
