| phatbasey Senior Member  1390 Posts 1/05 |  Posted - Apr 7 2005 : 10:49PMAs we speak I am having a terrible time connceting to on the Internet. I use Comcast and my buddy in Chicago says his net is down too. I never thought the Internet could "break" (so chances are its Comcast problems) but it left me with a question, Can the internet crash? [Link] |

| Hardware All-Star Member Your other left 14594 Posts 3/02 | Posted - Apr 7 2005 : 11:43PM As to the larger question, the Internet could be effectively crashed by a successful attack on the core routers. For the average user, a successful attack on the top level DNS servers would have the same effect. Even though traffic would still be capable of traversing the net, URL's would no longer work.

| jrv Senior Member 1266 Posts 2/03 | Posted - Apr 8 2005 : 3:47AM It's very hard to take down the *entire* internet, when everything is being run correctly. The RTM worm probably came closest. What usually happens is that a large area under one ISP, such as Comcast, loses connectivity. [Link] |

| jamesn Senior Member Cambridge, MA 750 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Apr 14 2005 : 4:23AM there's gonna be a little list with checkboxes(don't changethem) and you want to select "properties for internet protocol(tcp/ip). you've probably got both of the fields set to "automatic" and you'll want to change the dns server preferred and alternates to any of the numbers i listed. you'll probably have to disable/re-enable or repair it for the change to take effect.

| jamesn Senior Member Cambridge, MA 750 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Apr 14 2005 : 4:39AM National General Outage - Resolved at 4/14/2005 2:37:48 AM EDT (Connection to the Internet is currently unavailable. Our technicians are aware of the situation and are working to resolve the issue. This outage was logged at : 4/13/2005 6:47:00 PM EDT.) found another wording at dslreports.com
A: Note: Instructions below are for Windows 2000, XP and 2003 users only. For a complete set of instructions for multiple operating systems, including screenshots, please visit the ORSC website. Additionally, if you are behind a router, you may have to change DNS settings using the router configuration utility. Please consult your user manual. To change DNS servers: o Right click on the My Network Places icon on the desktop and select Properties. (If the icon is not available, go to Start menu / My Computer / My Network Places / View Network Connections.) o Locate the network connection that is associated with your Internet connection. This may be labeled something like "Local Area Connection." If you have more than one connection to choose from, be sure you determine the right one before proceeding. o Right click on the appropriate connection and select Properties. o In the list that appears under the General tab, double click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). o In the window that appears, you want to select the option to Use the following DNS server addresses... At this point you will want to enter at least one of your personal preferred DNS servers. There are a number of public servers suggested by members of the Comcast forum; simply do a search for 'DNS' and you should get adequate results. You can also check out this list compiled by jdmatl See Profile. o Press Ok out of all windows until you are back to the Network Connections window. You can now open your web browser and browse to a website to see if it connects faster. [Link] |
