I just made a mistake and clicked on "unsubscribe" on the email so hopefully someone can help me here.

Release and renew your DHCP address - perhaps that will reset the correct DNS server.

Completed

IPCONFIG /RELEASE, then do IPCONFIG /RENEW.

Gave me:
IP Address: 192.168.0.101
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
default gateway: 192.168.0.101

If that fails, try setting the DNS server entry into your PC manually - 192.168.0.1, as per the laptop.
Please do a ping to
www.pprune.org *from a command window* - the key question is whether or not it resolves the name to an IP address.

It states: ping request could not find host www.pprune.org. Please check the name and try again.
