changed to google dns. Home page is still 50/50

Guess I'll have to get some work done(4/11/2012 was my greatest production day in years). Curse you texags.

to those on iPhones, I am reading that if you reset your phone (power it off, and then back on) it will flush the DNS.

if the problem (an out-of-date record) is still on your carrier's side (or a carrier's specific node), unfortunately, you'll have to wait it out.

I'm still having trouble. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Time Warner.

If you are on a PC, you could follow the directions I posted earlier in this thread to update your DNS. This will almost certainly fix your issue. (If it were my computer, I would recommend doing this anyway).

Otherwise, still on a PC, you could give the following a try, but I have less confidence it will resolve much. type the following at a command-prompt:

ipconfig /flushdns

(you can get to a command prompt by opening the run command (WindowsKey+R) and typing cmd)

3GA - just change your DNS. I have XP as well so I will walk you through the steps.

click on Control Panel then Network connections



Right click on local area connection and click properties. Scroll down to internet protocol (TCP/IP)



click on it then click properties



Change the DNS to 'use the following DNS server addresses as shown in the above picture - 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and click ok.

It's your internet provider (your wifi)

This will walk you thru changing your ipad DNS to googles.

Since it did not help to change either , omputer no reason to think it will help ipad. Plus it be longs to school and we were told not to mess with settings. Right now I fee l that texags is gone for good. Don't und erstand why every other site on earth seems to work except the one I want I woild try re set on route r but it is on floor and I am not suppsed to bend that far post sugery for at least three more weeks

TexAgs had some DNS issues with their internet provider yesterday and fixed it (during the radio show I think). Those issues caused most service providers to have issues until they updated their DNS.

It appears your internet provider hasn't updated yet (or maybe it is your router).

One more thing to try on your computer. Down by the time you should have your wifi connection icon. Right click it and repair. That will disable the card, enable it, and obtain a new IP.

But since more people can access TexAgs (and even you on your phone), this issue doesn't appear to be on TexAgs side.

Sometimes these DNS issues just take 24-48 hours to completely clean themselves up. We had it with our company internet a few weeks ago and it was down for 2 days while all the servers around the world updated and started sending email right again.

Okay, got my home laptop working and back on texags. Now I just need to get my iPhone working where it can pull it up. I have powered it down and back up many times. Still not working. Very frustrating. Any ideas are appreciated.

Is it on your wifi at home?

Try deleting the cache, cookies, and history. (will lose saved passwords so be careful)

I found a "debug" button on my iPhone, turned it on and it looks like my phone is fixed. I went back to my laptop and it would not pull up. I think I just changed my DSN to that 8.8.4.4 number. And I think it is working. Not real sure.

I am able to get on texags from my iPhone when on wifi but not on cellular data connection. Guess I just have to wait since apparently I can't change dns for the cell connection on iOS.

And then I just turned wifi off and texags works fine now on cellular data. So my solution was to turn wifi on (normally have it off) and then turn it off again. No idea why or if that will work for anyone else.

And, just like that, no texags unless I turn on wifi.
