I have had many recent issues with DNS. Verizon at the node I just turned off (28599) was usually good but last week had DNS resolver issues, used google's, and here in Texas AT&T's DNS resolvers are messed up. Slow always but additionally cannot get my iPad to Apples site for cloud service, etc. My iPhone gets there on the cellular network. And I can get my iPad there using celphone as hotspot. But with a GB to move that's not a solution. Bottom line is I like to use google's servers, usually fast. And in rpt.conf I always keep the ip address, not hostnames, of the nodes I usually connect to(27849, 27891) GeorgeC W2DB 2360 -- George Csahanin 10100 Carson Ranch Rd.
